摘要
In the process of coalbed methane exploitation, a throttle valve was set to reduce the pressure and control the flow. However, if the temperature drops after throttling, and it is easy to form natural gas hydrate under certain conditions. To obtain the conditions when the natural gas hydrate is formed after coalbed methane throttling through throttles valve, the effects of such parameters including the throttling ratio and inlet pressure, on the throttling effect were studied by numerical simulation method. The results show that, when the inlet pressure is within the scope of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 MPa and the throttling ratio is a constant, the pressure drop and temperature drop increase with the increase of the inlet pressure, and the Joule-Thomson coefficient decreases with the increase of the inlet pressure. When the inlet pressure is a constant, the pressure drop and temperature drop decrease with the increase of throttling ratio. When the inlet pressure is greater than 5 MPa, it is easy to form natural gas hydrate. © 2021, Editorial Office of Journal of China University of Petroleum(Edition of Natural Science).
