Abstract:Coalbed methane (CBM) is a kind of mixed gas with the principal component of methane and nitrogen. Supercritical convective heat transfer of CH4/N2 cooled in horizontal circular tubes is one of the most important heat transfer processes during CBM liquefaction. In this paper, supercritical CH4/N2 cooling has been numerically investigated in a horizontal tube by using the low Reynolds number turbulence model proposed by Lam and Bremhorst. The study first focuses on the effect of nitrogen content on CBM heat tra… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
