Deformation of Coal Induced by Methane Adsorption at Geological Conditions

The quenched solid density functional theory (QSDFT) is employed to study methane adsorption on coal at geological conditions. The main focus is made on coal deformation in the course of adsorption that may result in either expansion/swelling or contraction, depending upon the pressure, temperature,...

description The quenched solid density functional theory (QSDFT) is employed to study methane adsorption on coal at geological conditions. The main focus is made on coal deformation in the course of adsorption that may result in either expansion/swelling or contraction, depending upon the pressure, temperature, and pore size. Two qualitatively different types of deformation behavior were found depending upon the pore width. Type I shows a monotonic expansion in the whole pressure range. This behavior is characteristic for the smallest pores
