摘要
This article presents the boosting mechanism in cavity during a hydrajet fracturing process. It is found that there are two kinds of pressures enhancing the value within a cavity. One is the impact pressure by the jetted fluid from a nozzle, and the other is back-pressure by the hole in a casing. A numerical simulation method was utilized to evaluate boosting effects combined with experiment results. Distribution of pressure in a cavity was obtained. The results show that the pressure in a cavity is higher than that in the wellbore. It will be increased with the nozzle pressure drop and nozzle diameter rising. The hole plays an important seal role to created back-pressure, which boosts the pressure greatly. The boosting value can reach approximately to 8.2 MPa with F 6 mm nozzle diameter and differential pressure of 25 MPa.
