DRILLING MUDS FLOW REGIMES & RHEOLOGY MODELS

Flow Regimes are the behavior of the fluid while flowing in a well. The most common regimes are laminar, turbulent, and transitional. Unfortunately, it is impossible to define each type in the well clearly. For example, mudflow may be predominantly laminar, although the flow near the pipe waIls during pipe rotation may be turbulent. Laminar … Continue reading DRILLING MUDS FLOW REGIMES & RHEOLOGY MODELS
