同一尺度下多类型煤岩体核磁弛豫−力学响应耦合规律

Coupling law of nuclear magnetic relaxation and mechanical responses of multiple types of coal and rock masses at same scale

  • 摘要: 深部煤岩储层内多尺度孔裂隙结构的空间展布特征对其力学强度与渗透行为具有控制作用,高效精准探测该结构对于评估资源储量、揭示应力扰动下的损伤破坏机制具有重要意义。基于煤矿井下定向长钻孔取心过程,若能明确钻取岩心沿程的孔隙结构及应力状态,将有助于重建储层内的流场与应力场分布,实现“一孔多用”的工程地质目标。目前对同一尺度煤岩体孔隙−力学耦合机制研究较少,为此集成低场核磁共振技术与单轴/三轴加载破坏试验,系统研究了多类型煤岩体核磁弛豫特征与力学响应参数之间的关联性,建立了孔隙结构参数与力学参量之间的定量耦合关系。结果表明:不同类型煤岩体表现出显著的弛豫响应差异,“原态/饱水−离心”联测的横向弛豫时间T2谱揭示其内部孔裂隙尺寸分布存在明显区别。随着围压增加,煤岩体的峰值强度σp和弹性模量E呈上升趋势。各类煤岩体的T2参数(T2几何平均值T2gm、算术平均值T2am及有效连通孔隙的T2几何平均值T2gmf、算术平均值T2amf)均与其对应的σpE呈负相关关系。这表明具有较高T2的大尺寸孔裂隙周边基质更易发生应力集中,诱发新裂隙萌生、扩展和贯通,同时弱胶结结构和较小的有效承载面积会削弱黏聚力并提高平均应力水平。T2gmT2gmf主导了加载破坏过程中裂纹失稳扩展路径与断裂韧性,T2amT2amf与力学参数的负相关关系则反映了原始孔隙缺陷对刚度和有效承载能力的削弱作用。T2谱分选系数(T2gm/T2amT2gmf/T2amf)与σpE的相关关系表明,煤岩体润湿性及孔裂隙空间展布的各向异性直接影响T2谱的迂曲度与结构强度。σpET2截止值(T2cutoff)呈正相关,与核磁孔隙率φ呈负相关,说明T2cutoffφ可共同反映孔裂隙的贯通性和有效应力水平。在相同围压条件下,不同煤岩体的破坏模式与颗粒间滑移方向存在差异,其受载破坏时的压应力敏感性及弛豫响应特性共同影响了参数间的相关关系。不同试样弛豫−力学参数相关性的排序进一步表明,煤岩体对力学特征的弛豫响应敏感度受矿物组成与孔隙尺寸分布等多因素联合调控。

     

    Abstract: The spatial distribution of multi-scale pore-fracture structures in deep coal-rock reservoirs have a controlling effect on their mechanical strength and permeability behavior. Efficient and accurate detection of this structure is of great significance for resource reserve assessment and revealing the damage and failure mechanism under stress disturbance. Based on the process of core drilling in underground coal mines, if the pore structure and stress state along the core can be clearly identified, it will be helpful to reconstruct the flow field and stress field distribution within the reservoir and achieve the engineering geological goal of “one hole, multiple uses”. Currently, there is a lack of research on the pore-mechanical coupling mechanism of coal-rock at the same scale. Therefore, low-field nuclear magnetic resonance technology integrated with uniaxial/triaxial loading and failure experiments are carried out to systematically study the correlation between the nuclear magnetic relaxation characteristics and mechanical response parameters of various types of coal and rock, and establish a quantitative coupling relationship between pore structure parameters and mechanical parameters. The experimental results show that different types of coal and rock exhibit significant differences in relaxation responses. The T2 spectrum obtained by the “original state/saturation-centrifugal” combined measurement reveals that there are obvious differences in the internal pore-fracture size distribution. With the increase of confining pressure, the peak strength σp and elastic modulus E of coal-rock increase. The T2 parameters (geometric mean T2gm, arithmetic mean T2am, geometric mean T2gmf and arithmetic mean T2amf of effective connected pores) of various types of coal-rock are negatively correlated with their corresponding σp and E. This indicates that the matrix around large-sized pores and fractures with higher T2 values is more prone to stress concentration, inducing the initiation, expansion and coalescence of new fractures. At the same time, weak cementation structure and smaller effective bearing area will weaken the cohesion and increase the average stress level. T2gm and T2gmf dominate the crack instability propagation path and fracture toughness during the loading and failure process, while the negative correlation between T2am and T2amf and mechanical parameters reflects the weakening effect of the original pore defects on stiffness and effective bearing capacity. The correlation between the T2 spectrum sorting coefficient (T2gm/T2am, T2gmf/T2amf) and σp, E indicates that the wettability of coal and rock and the anisotropy of pore-fracture spatial distribution directly affect the tortuosity and structural strength of the T2 spectrum. σp and E are positively correlated with the T2 cutoff value (T2cutoff) and negatively correlated with the nuclear magnetic porosity φ, indicating that T2cutoff and φ can jointly reflect the connectivity and effective stress level of pores and fractures. Under the same confining pressure conditions, the failure modes and particle sliding directions of different coal and rock samples are different, and their stress sensitivity and relaxation response characteristics during loading and failure jointly affect the correlation between parameters. The ranking of the correlation between relaxation and mechanical parameters of different samples further indicates that the sensitivity of coal and rock to mechanical characteristics in relaxation response is jointly regulated by multiple factors such as mineral composition and pore size distribution.
