Numerical Investigation into the Distributions of Temperature and Stress around Wellbore during the Injection of Cryogenic Liquid Nitrogen into Hot Dry Rock Reservoir

Cryogenic liquid nitrogen fracturing is expected to provide an effective stimulation method for hot dry rock reservoirs to increase heat production. This paper establishes a three-dimensional model to calculate the distributions of temperature and stress of the reservoir rock when liquid nitrogen is...
