Gas Storage Cavity Simulation Experiment Research and Application

Abstract:

The real salt cores from drill-site was regarded as the prototype in this experiment. They are used to simulate solution mining process of salt caverns. In this paper the mathematical model of solution mining wasset up.Experimental parameters are obtained by similarity ratio. Afternumerous experiments on the artificial salt rock model,the results show that thecontrol experimental parametersand the references design are effective.This researchhas some guidance on field engineering of solution mining construction.
