Core Perforation Flow Simulation
• Use 2D Finite Difference in-
house simulator for core flow
• Simulate axial flow
• Visualize pressure and
velocity distribution
• Calculate core flow efficiency
• CFD (Computational Fluid
Dynamics)
• Modelling for Tunnel shape
effects
• Invasion Profile testing.
• Shoots with different
wellbore fluids.
