Numerical simulation of fluid flow and experiment on downhole friction reduction tool
In this article, a new friction reduction tool is designed for drilling of horizontal wells, and its performance is investigated using computational fluid dynamics simulation technique, laboratory experiment, and field testing. According to flow field analysis, the spiral diversion channel has obvio...
