Method for calculating thermal conductivity of sandstone by utilizing the mineral components

Abstract

According to the method for calculating the thermal conductivity of the sandstone by utilizing the mineral components, the thermal conductivity value of the sandstone is predicted and calculated by utilizing existing mineral data, so that the measurement of the thermal conductivity value of a drilled sample is avoided, and the research expenditure in research work such as geodetic heat flow is reduced; according to the method, the thermal conductivity value of the sandstone is calculated by utilizing the volume content percentage of minerals in the sandstone, so that the phenomenon that weightpercentage data measured by an XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) experiment does not accord with the mineral content of a traditional thermal conductivity prediction model is avoided; according to the method,the rock thermal conductivity data is calculated by utilizing the density of the sample minerals, and experimental data is more accurate than original rock thermal conductivity data calculated by utilizing the general density value of the minerals and conforms to actual conditions.

Problems solved by technology

However, the calculation basis of these commonly used mathematical methods is based on the fact that the minerals that make up the sandstone are regularly arranged in the sandstone, and when the mineral data in the sandstone are obtained experimentally, the minerals in the sandstone are in the original spatial arrangement and geometric combination relationship, However, since the more commonly used modern experiments to obtain mineral composition data in sandstones are geochemical methods: the spatial layout of mineral particles in sandstones is completely destroyed, so there are certain limitations in using these mathematical models to calculate the thermal conductivity of sandstones. error
