A numerical simulation of high-temperature rock hydraulic fracturing based
on coupled thermo-mechanical peridynamics
the bond model was applied to treat the thermal diffusion of rock and the conventional state model was adopt to simulate the displacement evolution. According to the number of broken bonds between material points
the material damage was determined to track real-time fracture propagation. The interaction between water and rock was realized by applying pressure and temperature of water to fracture surface. And a numerical model was proposed to simulate hydraulic fracturing in high-temperature rock considering the thermal-mechanical coupling effect. The accuracy of the proposed model was verified according to the test results of rock heating fracture propagation. Finally
the morphology of hydraulic fracturing-induced rock fractures were discussed considering the effects of water pressure
rock initial temperature and elastic modulus
the sensitivity of each factor to fracture geometry parameters was analyzed based on the comprehensive sensitivity attribute identification method. The results indicate that under conditions of low water pressure or initial rock temperature
the primary fractures exhibit a near-symmetric distribution
and there is almost no fracture branching. With the increase of water pressure or initial temperature
the number of fracture gradually increases and the bifurcation occurs
the total length and opening degree of fracture also increase. When the mean elastic modulus of rock is small
the fractures are well developed and many tiny cracks appear. With the increase of the average elastic modulus
the number of fracture branches and micro-fractures decreases obviously
and the total length and opening degree of fractures also decrease accordingly
while the rock fracture initiation time increases approximately linearly. The comprehensive sensitivity evaluation of rock material parameters and environmental parameters shows that rock fracture propagation is highly sensitive to elastic modulus and water pressure
