Abstract:In situ conversion is the most potential technology for efficient and clean development of oil shale, and a downhole electric heater is key equipment for clean, efficient, and low-carbon in situ conversion. Three electric heating rods with different diameters are used to explore their influence on heater performances. The simulation results indicate that increasing the diameter of the heating rod helps to increase the minimum and maximum velocity of shell-side air, and the maximum velocity of H110-24 is 16.34 … Show more
