Numerical Simulation Study on Erosive Wear of ESP

Wear of electric submersible pump (ESP) in oilfield was caused by high sand content in the high water-cut stage. RNG k-e turbulence model and discrete phase model are deployed for numerical simulation to study the effect of conditions and structural parameters on the wear of ESP impellers. It is sho...
