摘要：
Using porous media to store and transport natural gas by the hydrate method can significantly improve gas-liquid contact and increase the hydrate formation rate. Therefore, it is particularly important to understand the characteristics of hydrate formation in porous media. In this study, the formation characteristics of hydrate in porous media with different particle sizes were quantitatively investigated by low-field 1H NMR from the microscopic scale to macroscopic characteristics. The experimental results show that hydrate always tends to grow in the larger pore space area caused by the heterogeneity of the porous media, and the water conversion rate in large pores is significantly higher than that in small pores. Due to the water accumulation under the action of gravity, the distribution of hydrate shows obvious spatial heterogeneity, and the lower part is more prone to clogging. Analysis of the macroscopic characteristics of hydrate formation shows that the induction time of hydrate has no obvious relationship with the particle size of the porous media, while the formation rate and gas consumption of hydrate increase with the decrease of the particle size of porous media. The gas consumption and formation rate of hydrate in BZ01 increase by 16.85% and 174.7% respectively compared with those in BZ02/04. In addition, due to gas diffusion - hydrate film rupture - capillary force, hydrate growth has the characteristics of 2nd growth, resulting in more than 33.7% of the final gas consumption.
