摘要：
During the thermal recovery process, the tubing string buckles inside the wellbore and leans directly on the casing, which has a significant influence on the heat transmission between the wellbore and its surroundings. In this paper, a unified mathematical model is built to predict the flow behavior and heat transmission along the flow path by considering the tubing buckling effect. A classic tubing buckling model is introduced to determine the tubing-casing contact status. For the noncontact section, the heat transmission calculation follows the conventional "thermal resistance" method, whereas a new approach is proposed for the tubing-casing contact section. The tubing buckling model and the non-isothermal flow model are solved sequentially in an iterative process. The interaction between tubing buckling and non-isothermal flow is analyzed in detail. The results indicate that insulation tubing and telescopic tubing are welcomed in thermal recovery.
