Mathematical Modeling of a Non-Isothermal Flow in a Porous Medium Considering Gas Hydrate Decomposition: A Review

Deposits of natural gas hydrates are some the most promising sources hydrocarbons. According to studies, at current level consumption, traditional reserves will last for about 50 years, and hydrate deposits least 250 years. Therefore, interest in study is associated first all with production from deposits. Additionally, widely studied solving practical problems, such as transportation storage gas, utilization industrial gases environmental technological disasters hydrates. When problems related hydrates, addition laboratory field mathematical modeling also used. This article presents models non-isothermal flow a porous medium considering decomposition hydrate. The general forms mass conservation equations, Darcy’s law energy equation given. derivations equations taking into account latent heat phase transitions filtration parameters equation. may be useful researchers better understand construction model. For included basic various dependencies used different works. In articles found, often there was an emphasis on one or two parameters. main feature this summarizing large number graphs these presented so that reader can independently evaluate differences between them. preferred calculations noted explained.
