Abstract
In this work, equations and methods of multiphase media mechanics were used to simulate the hydrodynamic, thermophysical, and heat-and mass-transfer processes in natural-gas flow through a horizontal pipe with allowance for gas-hydrate deposition onto the inner pipe wall. The influence of several factors on the hydrate formation process was numerically examined.
