Analytical model for Joule-Thomson cooling under heat exchange during CO2 storage
Abstract
Exact solution for radial CO2 injection with Joule-Thomson cooling & heat exchange. Heat exchange by Newton's law yields temperature profile stabilisation with time. The Joule-Thomson effect can significantly decrease reservoir temperature. Analytical model allows estimating the injection rates that avoid hydrate formation.
