EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF COOLING LUBRICATING FLUIDS ON PENETRATION RATE IN A HARD AND SOFT ROCK DRILLING PROCESS

Rock drilling is the process of penetrating and crushing rocks, which is characterized by the low rate of penetration (ROP) and drilling rate because of the amount of cuttings that remain in the drilling environment and the thermal stresses generated at the bit-rock interface. Any improvement in ROP...

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF COOLING LUBRICATING FLUIDS ON PENETRATION RATE IN A HARD AND SOFT ROCK DRILLING PROCESS
description Rock drilling is the process of penetrating and crushing rocks, which is characterized by the low rate of penetration (ROP) and drilling rate because of the amount of cuttings that remain in the drilling environment and the thermal stresses generated at the bit-rock interface. Any improvement in ROP and drilling rate can be of great technical and economic value for drilling projects. ROP can be improved through the proper use of cooling-lubricating fluids during drilling. ROP is a key indicator of drilling performance and the ability to predict this rate can be very useful for mining projects. ROP prediction can also be used to estimate the total cost of a drilling operation. ROP depends on a variety of parameters, which, when available, can be used to estimate ROP.
