Abstract

Details an innovative calculation method that can easily determine the state of fluid flow and pressure losses in drilling and cementing operations. Importance of correct evaluation of the type of flow; Hydraulic parameters; Flow regimes for a circular and annular sections; Reynolds number; Evaluation criteria; Correlation between pressure loss gradient and GC; Rheological model.
