Meso-level simulation of gas hydrate dissociation inlow-permeability sediments

This paper presents a meso-level simulation of gas hydrate dissociation in low-permeability marine sediments. Interstitial pores are defined to describe fluid flow and particle movement. The proposed model couples multiphase fluid flow with particle movement to simulate the thermodynamics of gas hyd...
