甲烷水合物导热机理的分子动力学模拟

甲烷水合物导热系数是甲烷水合物勘探、开采、储运以及其他应用过程中一个十分重要的物理参数.我们采用平衡分子动力学（EMD）方法Green-Kubo理论计算温度203.15～263.15K、压力范围3～100MPa、晶穴占有率为0～1的sI甲烷水合物的导热系数,采用的水分子模型包括TIP4P、TIP4P-Ew、TIP4P-FQ、TIP4P/2005、TIP4P/Ice.研究了主客体分子、外界温压条件等对甲烷水合物导热性能的影响.研究结果显示甲烷水合物的低导热性能由主体分子构建的sI笼型结构决定,而客体分子进入笼型结构后,使得笼型结构导热性能增强,同时进入笼型结构的客体分子越多,甲烷水合物导热性能越强.研究结果还显示在高温区域（T〉TDebye/3）内不同温度作用下,所有sI水合物具有相似的导热规律.压力对导热系数有一定影响,尤其是在较高压力条件下,压力越高,导热系数越大.而在不同温度和不同压力作用过程中,密度的改变对导热系数的增大或减小几乎没有影响.

多孔介质中甲烷水合物的分解特性

利用定容降压方法测定了在不同多孔介质中甲烷水合物的分解实验数据, 所使用的多孔介质平均孔径分别为9.03, 12.95, 17.96和33.20 nm, 其中孔径为12.95 nm的多孔介质采用了3个粒径范围, 分别为0.105～0.150, 0.150～0.200和0.300～0.450 mm; 其它孔径的多孔介质的粒径范围为0.105～0.150 mm. 在封闭的条件下测定了不同温度与不同初始生成压力下甲烷水合物的分解实验数据(实验温度范围为269.15～278.15 K, 初始生成压力范围为4.1～11.0 MPa), 结果表明, 水合物的分解速度随着初始生成压力的增加和水浴温度的降低而升高, 也随孔径的增加而升高, 但随多孔介质粒径的增大而降低. 在孔径较大和分解温度较低时, 多孔介质中水合物分解引起的温度降低会使水结冰, 从而减缓水合物的分解速度.

甲烷水合物在静态体系中生成反应的促进

静态体系生成甲烷水合物是个缓慢的、不完全的过程。即使使用表面活性剂也不能实现反应物的100％转化。本文讨论了在静态反应停止后,使用系统温度振荡的方法来促进水合反应的继续进行,直至完全转化。在系统温度从-10～4℃之间周期振荡时,原本停滞的水合反应在水的相变温度附近又开始发生反应,由于水合物合成时铠甲效应的存在,水在样品中的过冷度达到10℃左右。文中对样品的热物性测试表明,在经过几个温度变化周期后,反应非常完全,反应器中样品是100％的甲烷水合物。     

Kinetics of hydrate formation using gas bubble suspended in water

An innovative experimental technique, which was devised to study the effects of temperature and pressure on the rate of hydrate formation at the surface of a gas bubble suspended in a stagnant water phase, was adapted in this work. Under such conditions, the hydrate-growth process is free from dynamic mass transfer factors. The rate of hydrate formation of methane and carbon dioxide has been systematically studied. The measured hydrate-growth data were correlated by using the molar Gibbs free energy as driving force. In the course of the experiments, some interesting surface phenomena were observed.     

Investigation on Gas Storage in Methane Hydrate

The effect of additives (anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), nonionic surfactantalkyl polysaccharide glycoside (APG), and liquid hydrocarbon cyclopentane (CP)) on hydrate inductiontime and formation rate, and storage capacity was studied in this work. Micelle surfactant solutions werefound to reduce hydrate induction time, increase methane hydrate formation rate and improve methanestorage capacity in hydrates. In the presence of surfactant, hydrate could form quickly in a quiescentsystem and the energy costs of hydrate formation were reduced. The critical micelle concentrations of SDS and APG water solutions were found to be 300x 10-6 and 500x 10-6 for methane hydrate formation systemrespectively. The effect of anionic surfactant (SDS) on methane storage in hydrates is more pronounced compared to a nonionic surfactant (APG). CP also reduced hydrate induction time and improved hydrateformation rate, but could not improve methane storage in hydrates.

Structural Study of Methane Hydrate

The authors present a structural study of methane hydrate by using MP2 calculations and the QTAIM method. Two different structures are analyzed for the empty clathrate molecule. Both structures exhibit 30 hydrogen bonds and they differ in the position of the 10 O–H bonds that are not involved in hydrogen bonds. As the available space in the middle of the structure, where the guest could be located, is the same in both cases, most stable molecule is considered to be filled with methane. We also try to establish similarities and differences between methane occupied and empty units by analyzing geometrical and density charge properties, particularly what is related to the hydrogen bonds among water molecules in the clathrate. Our results allow us to conclude that the introduction of methane does not vary the main structural properties of this molecule.     

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Methane Hydrate Decomposition in the Presence of Alcohol Additives

The decomposition process of methane hydrate in pure water and methanol aqueous solution was studied by molecular dynamics simulation. The effects of temperature and pressure on hydrate structure and decomposition rate are discussed. The results show that decreasing pressure and increasing temperature can significantly enhance the decomposition rate of hydrate. After adding a small amount of methanol molecules, bubbles with a diameter of about 2 nm are formed, and the methanol molecules are mainly distributed at the gas-liquid interface, which greatly accelerates the decomposition rate and gas-liquid separation efficiency. The radial distribution function and sequence parameter analysis show that the water molecules of the undecomposed hydrate with ordered ice-like configuration at a temperature of 275 K evolve gradually into a long-range disordered liquid structure in the dynamic relaxation process. It was found that at temperatures above 280 K and pressures between 10 atm and 100 atm, the pressure has no significant effect on hydrate decomposition rate, but when the pressure is reduced to 1 atm, the decomposition rate increases sharply. These findings provided a theoretical insight for the industrial exploitation of hydrates.     

Fractal-like Kinetic Characteristics of Coalbed Methane Hydrate Dissociation at Normal Pressure

Moreover, a new kinetic model for coalbed methane hydrate dissociation was proposed, and its reliability was validated.
