Perforation in internal upset transition zone is one of the main failure styles for drill pipes. Due to the flow channel specificity of upset transition zone, in this paper, drill pipe failure analysis from the point of flow erosion was put forward. Flow field of drilling fluid in the internal upset transition zone of U127 mm API IEU S135 drill pipe under various conditions were obtained using ...

We discuss for tetrahedratic phases a number of cross-coupling terms not considered before and we analyse their macroscopic physical consequences. In particular we show that if a tetrahedratic phase is acted on by an electric field that is perpendicular to a temperature gradient, an electric current perpendicular to both forces results. We also demonstrate that spatial variations of the tetrahe...

Since the seminal studies by Osborne Reynolds in nineteenth century, pipe flow has served as a primary prototype for investigating transition to turbulence wall-bounded flows. Despite apparent simplicity of this flow, various facets problem have occupied researchers more than century. Here we review insights from three distinct perspectives: ( a) stability and susceptibility laminar b) phase sp...

Abstract. In this paper, a Cascaded Lattice Boltzmann Method with second order slip boundary conditions is developed to study gas flows in a microchannel in the slip and transition flow regimes with a wide range of Knudsen numbers. For the first time the effect of wall confinement is considered on the effective mean free path of the gas molecules using a function with nonconstant Bosanquet para...

the estimation of velocity distribution plays a major role in the hydrodynamics of vegetated streams or rivers of extensive natural floodplains. the velocity profile in vegetated channels can be divided into three zones: uniform zone which is close to bed with uniform velocity distribution, logarithmic zone which involves the main channel with no vegetive cover and the transition zone that is a...
