A NEW METHOD OF EASY%R_o NUMERICAL SIMULATION FOR VITRINITE REFLECTANCE INVERSION

Based on many previous methods of numerical simulation for vitrinite reflectance,a new EASY%R_o method was established by American scholard in the early 1990s,and it has been successfully applied in coal basin research of North America and West Europe.The results of EASY%R_o numerical simulation about coal evolution history and coalification process of Upper Paleozoic in Southem Shanxi have been reported in this paper after introducing it's theory.
