Steam thermal drive oil is the method in which high pressure steam with suitable dryness fraction is injected into heavy oil stratum.

注蒸汽稠油热采是指稠油开采时向稠油层注入适当干度的高压蒸汽进行原油采集。

Steam-injection boiler is the key equipment of thermal drive, and it is also the equipment whose energy consumption is the largest in the thermal drive process.

注汽锅炉是油田注蒸汽热采的关键设备，是油田热采工艺过程中能耗最大的设备之一。

As an important parameter for safe operation of steam-injection boiler, dryness is also an important target which affects the effect of heavy oil thermal drive.

蒸汽干度做为油田注汽锅炉安全运行中的一个重要参数，也是影响稠油热采效果的一个重要指标。

The lower shear forces and more efficient thermal conduction of helium also mean the drive will run cooler and will emit less acoustic noise.

There are many nontrivial ancillary challenges too, especially the secondary procedure of actually getting the energy out of the reactor into a useful form, i.e. heat to drive steam-turbines as with all other kinds of thermal power stations, to generate electricity.

So, even if we drive our vehicles with methane -and use solar thermal for home heating and hot water, we will not increase demand for methane.
