  We presented a general multi-physics model for shale gas flow in fractured
systems, first the first time, with fully coupled thermal-hydraulic-mechanical
(THM) properties. The impact of gas adsorption, real gas properties, gas flow
in nano-scale pore space and geomechanics effects on total gas flow capacity
are investigated. We also showed that by elevating shale rock temperature, the
characteristic of gas adsorption behavior can be substantially altered.
