Investigation on physico-mechanical properties and microstructural evolution patterns of heated granite after liquid nitrogen cooling

Abstract Liquid nitrogen (LN2) fracturing is recognized as an innovative reservoir enhancement technique, demonstrating significant potential in establishing high permeability pathways in geothermal development. Understanding the physico-mechanical properties and microscopic mechanisms of hot dry ro...
