THEORETICAL AND NUMERICAL SIMULATION STUDY OF UNDERGROUND GAS-STORAGE CAVERNS WITH WATER CURTAIN
地下水封储气洞库原理及数值模拟分析

In light of the first underground gas storage engineering in China, the principles of underground gas storage caverns with water curtain are presented. Analysis and discussion of the water curtain from theory are carried out by finite element method. Numerical simulation results give a good proof that using water curtain to storage LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) in underground is safe. It will provide quite valuable reference for the design and construction of gas storage cavern in China.
