Numerical study of parameters affecting pressure drop of power-law fluid in horizontal annulus for laminar and turbulent flows
Abstract Efficient hydraulics program of oil and gas wells has a crucial role for the optimization of drilling process. In the present paper, a numerical study of power-law fluid flow through concentric (E = 0.0) and eccentric annulus (E = 0.3, E = 0.6 and E = 0.9) was performed for both laminar and...
