Abstract:Optical fiber flatpacks, which are cable-reinforced plastic-encased fiber bundles used for local temperature and acoustic measurements, can be stressed when near a perforating gun. The fiber itself is floated in metal tubes with gel. Understanding the behavior under severe shock causes the use of potential mitigation schemes. In this work, the flatpack containing optic fibers is simulated for survivability on the casing of a perforating gun system. Using a shock hydrocode in two-dimensions (2D), a flatpack is … Show more
