Abstract Assessment of coating performance under flowing condition by using a proprietary flow loop system has been established. The 2 3/8" flow loop was designed to maintain a flow rate of 0.03-0.04 m3/sec, pressure of 3300kPa and temperature of 150°C to simulate actual field condition. Test section consisting of two 35" straight tubes with 45° elbow was internally coated and connected to the flow loop which was run continuously for 14 days with deionized water under the specified test condition. Upon completion, visual inspection, EIS and linear abrasion test were done on the test section to evaluate the coating integrity post exposure. Small blisters were noted at the elbow section potentially due to the improper surface preparation and/or higher fluid velocity at the bend section. Impedance value of 107 Ω/cm2 is a magnitude higher than the acceptance limit of 106 Ω/cm2 while abrasion resistance was found less than the set limit of <100mg/1000 cycles. The flow loop test has been shown to be a reliable tool to evaluate the effect of wall shear stress and fluid erosion on internal tubular coating.

Abstract A directional drilling operation may include one or more bending sections along the drilling profile. These bend sections are the critical segments from the hole cleaning point of view. In this study, a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) method was used to investigate the hole cleaning behaviour in annulus bending section. Eulerian-Eulerian multiphase flow model was adopted in this study. The developed CFD model was validated with experimental data. Different non-Newtonian Herschel Bulkley fluids were used to simulate the drilling mud. Solid cuttings of different sizes (2 mm, 4 mm, and 5 mm) were used to replicate the drill cuttings. Different fluid flow rate (0.5 m/s, 1.0 m/s, 1.5 m/s and 2.0 m/s) were investigated to observe the solid settling tendency in the horizontal and bending section. Cuttings accumulation behaviour at different bending radius (10 inch. and 20 inch.) and bending angle (15°, 30°, and 60° from horizontal) were investigated. The simulation study shows that higher viscous fluid performs better hole cleaning at low mud velocity. Furthermore, a turbulent flow regime performs better solid transport in the bending section. Finally, this study summarizes the hole cleaning behaviour of a bend section for a range of fluid velocity, cuttings size and radius of curvature and inclination.

Metal pipes have a long history as fluid conduits, and are commonly joined with components such as elbows to form bent transport paths. However, with the increasing demands for economy and energy saving, pipes with reduced joints and thinner walls are desired. The number of joints can be reduced by a drawing and bending process that forms a bend section at any position in the pipe. However, this approach incurs problems such as wrinkling and flattening, especially under conditions of large bending angle, decreased bending radius, and thin pipe walls. In this research, applying vibrations to the mandrel was trialed as an approach for controlling the wrinkle depth and flattening. First, processing experiments were performed on thin walled pipes (wall thickness = 0.5 mm; outer diameter = 14 mm). The change of flattening and the number and depths of wrinkles were investigated in the presence and absence of vibrations. Next, simulations were performed using the commercial nonlinear finite element software. Through these simulations, the flatness and appearance of wrinkles were analyzed by modeling the behavior and distribution of stresses and strains in the processing process. The application of vibration to the mandrel appears to be a promising approach for controlling the wrinkling and flattening problems during pipe processing.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study of passive effusion cooling in an S-bend channel with a diffuser. A previous paper showed the results for cold primary flow [1]. This paper deals with hot primary flow. The results show that different levels and locations of effusion injection significantly affect the primary flow field and the pressure recovery in the downstream diffuser. This leads to a significant increase in static pressure at the inlet of the S-bend section, and reduces the driving pressure for the passive effusion cooling air. This effect then leads to reduced effusion mass flow, momentum and cooling effectiveness. The paper presents data on the static pressure distributions in the device, flow distortion at the diffuser exit, flow rate of effusion injection, and effusion cooling effectiveness.

Cold bend section forming is generally completed by multi roll pass. The whole rolling process form chain structure. Applying virtual manufacturing technology to cold bend section production field is a new concept. Aiming at the chain of the specific conditions of the rolling process, the paper studies the application of virtual manufacturing technology implementation method and puts forward a new concept and technical measures.
