Numerical Investigation on Wellbore Temperature Prediction during the CO<sub>2</sub> Fracturing in Horizontal Wells

A novel model is established to predict the temperature field in the horizontal wellbore during CO<sub>2</sub> fracturing. The pressure work and viscous dissipation are considered, and the transient energy, mass and momentum equations as well as the CO<sub>2</sub> physical pr...
