Cómo se calcula

  • Bingham plastic, in the field form: laminar gradient = PV·V/(60000·(Dh−Dp)²) + YP/(200·(Dh−Dp)).
  • Critical velocity decides the regime; above it the turbulent correlation ρ⁰·⁸Q¹·⁸PV⁰·²/(1396(Dh−Dp)³(Dh+Dp)¹·⁸) is used instead.
  • ECD = effective mud weight + annular loss / (0.052 · TVD). Cuttings loading is applied as a volume-weighted density with 2.6 SG rock.
  • If you enter Fann readings, PV = θ600 − θ300 and YP = θ300 − PV.

Dónde deja de ser cierto

Bingham plastic over-predicts annular loss for a shear-thinning polymer mud, sometimes by a factor of two or three — a power-law or Herschel–Bulkley model would give a lower and more realistic number, and this tool deliberately does not guess at one. It also assumes one uniform annular geometry, an isothermal column, and no pipe rotation or eccentricity, each of which moves the answer by a meaningful amount. Treat it as a bound and a sanity check, never as a substitute for a hydraulics simulator on a narrow-margin well.
