Abstract:Summary
This paper studies the effect of viscosity and fines-particle loading on the pressure drop across a 4-mm orifice in a specific geometry built to mimic a representative well completion. It also provides experimental data in the range of operating conditions (high aspect ratio, low Reynolds number) that were not covered by any previous studies. The past experiments concentrated on studying the orifices with high aspect ratio (>1) and high Reynolds number (>1,000) or with a co… Show more
