description | It is of great significance to study how temperature affects the restricted diffusion in pores for an accurate evaluation of reservoir physical properties by using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) diffusion-transverse relaxation (D-T2) spectrum under reservoir temperature conditions. In this paper, we simulate the restricted diffusion and two-dimensional (2D) NMR D-T2 spectra of water molecules at different temperatures using random-walk method. The one-dimensional (1D) restricted diffusion simulation results show that the diffusion coefficient in the pore at room temperature decays with the diffusion time and eventually reaches a plateau. Under the condition of long-time diffusion, the ratio of restricted diffusion coefficient to bulk diffusion coefficient at different temperatures tends to be the same constant. With the increase in temperature, the simulated D-T2 spectra also gradually move upward. The simulated D-T2 spectra at all temperatures are consistent with the Padé interpolation equation. In addition, the results calculated by Padé interpolation equation demonstrate that the degree of temperature influence on the D-T2 spectrum of rock is quantitatively related to the pore radius, porosity and cementation index. |
