Numerical simulation study on critical liquid and sand carrying velocities of gas-liquid-sand multiphase flow in vertical and horizontal wellbore sections

A segmented simulation is used to examine flow behaviors in vertical and horizontal shale-oil wellbores. Built with Poly-Hexcore meshing, the model couples Euler-Euler and KTGF approaches, and incorporates the Dranchuk-Abu-Kassim equation for real-gas compressibility along with a...
