Numerical and experimental study of a novel aerodynamic foam breaker for foam drilling fluid
Abstract Defoaming is a key technology for increasing the efficiency of foam drilling in petroleum engineering. To enhance the performance of a mechanical foam breaker in foam drilling, a novel aerodynamic foam breaker with two annular slits was investigated in this study. The computational fluid dy...
