Fluid flow friction factors serve as a cornerstone in understanding and predicting the resistance encountered by fluids moving through conduits. These dimensionless parameters are essential in both ...

Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

Real-time streaming well data monitors drilling performance and aids drilling decisions using web-based drilling models to calculate and predict drilling parameters. These models improve rate of ...
