Numerical modeling of slippage and adsorption effects on gas transport in shale formations using the lattice Boltzmann method

Abstract Shale formations consist of numerous nanoscale pores within a range of 2 nm–50 nm; the shale gas flow within this size range under typical shale reservoir pressure and temperature will fall into the slip flow or the transitional flow regime 0.001
