Abstract
The different aspects of near-wall turbulence, frictional pressure losses, near-wall velocity and shear stress profiles caused due to various fluid flow problems during well drilling and well completion are a current area of research. This thesis experimentally and visually analyses the near-wall turbulent behaviour by evolving Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) technique implied with medium-sized multiphase flow system in an inclined annulus of 5˚ and 10˚. Newtonian fluids as a single-phase (liquid) flow and non-Newtonian fluid as a two-phase (liquid/solid) flow. The data for both single-phase (liquid), and dual-phase (liquid/solid) is analysed in inclined concentric and different eccentric conditions with the rotating inner pipe on different Rotation per Minute (RPM).
In the first part of this research thesis, turbulent behaviour of single-phase (liquid phase) water and non-Newtonian fluid (Flowzan) were observed and are reported on different parameters
