In order to maximize the efficiency of energy use, the flow characteristics of different combinations of high pressure jet nozzles are analyzed through numerical simulations. According to the velocity vectors at the bottom and the bottom hole pressure diagram, the effects of the high pressure nozzle combinations on the flow structure and the penetration rate are analyzed. It is shown that the combination of three vertical edge nozzles is very efficient, but inefficient in cleaning the bottom hole and eroding the wall. The jet velocity is 400 m/s and the radius is 5 mm, with a center nozzle added, the problem can be solved, but the high-pressure fluid displacement would increase. The center nozzle＇s jet velocity is 200 m/s and the radius is 8 ram, the combination of two vertical edge nozzles and a center tilt nozzle or that of a vertical edge nozzle and a center tilt nozzle would provide a flow structure favorable for drilling. The angle of inclination is 10°. To take advantage of high pressure jet energy to improve the efficiency of drilling, it is important to select a suitable nozzle combination according real conditions.展开更多
