The present invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas well engineering, in particular to a mechanics calculation method of drill bit tooth considering rock dynamic strength and mixed crushing mode.
In the field of deep drilling, crushing rocks with the drill bit plays a crucial role in improving rate of penetration (ROP) and rock excavation efficiency. In the process of rock crushing, the target drill bit tooth mechanics of interactions between the drill bit and the target rock has always been a core hot issue. Under the interactions between the drill bit and the target rock, the target drill bit tooth mechanics can provide meaningful guidance for drill bit design, drill tool selection, new drill tool development, and improving ROP.
Crushing rocks with the target drill bit tooth is a complicated process. The calculation methods for the force of drill bit tooth are divided into two categories. One is the numerical simulation method, mainly including finite element method, finite difference method, discrete element method, digital simulation method, etc., but numerical solutions are computationally slower than analytical solutions. The analytical solutions mainly include the following: (1) based on the tensile fracture theory, a classical wedge-shaped drill bit tooth-rock interaction mechanics analytical solution model is established; (2) considering shear failure theory, friction between cutting tooth and rocks and rock pore pressure, an analytical model of cutting tooth-rock interaction is established; (3) considering that the crushing force of drill bit tooth is transmitted through the dense core, a mechanical model of wedge-shaped tooth intrusion is established; (4) based on cutting experimental observations, considering compaction core and tensile failure modes, a mechanical model of drill bit tooth-rock interaction is established.
It is not difficult to find that crushing rocks with the target drill bit tooth is a complex stress process, including tensile failure, compression failure and shear failure, and in the process of crushing rocks with the target drill bit tooth, the target rock are subjected to dynamic loads while the rock strength will change under different dynamic loads. However, the above-mentioned mechanical models and calculation methods for drill-rock interaction mainly consider single failure mode, single crushing strength mode, static or quasi-static strength mechanics theory without comprehensive consideration of cutting speed, dynamic strength and mixed crushing mode, so that the real dynamic force characteristics of crushing rocks with the target drill bit tooth cannot be considered. Currently, the mechanical calculation method for the target drill bit tooth considering rock dynamic strength, mixed fracture mode, drill bit tooth movement speed, drill bit tooth shape and rock strain rate is rarely involved.
The objectives of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior arts, and to provide a drill bit tooth mechanics calculation method considering rock dynamic strength and mixed crushing mode. The calculation method includes steps of: (1) selecting a target drill bit tooth and a target rock, and determining a type of the target drill bit tooth, a geometry of the target drill bit tooth, a rock type and rock parameters of the target rock; (2) calculating a horizontal cutting force of the target drill bit tooth according to a horizontal cutting mechanics calculation method of drill bit tooth; (3) calculating a vertical penetration force of the target drill bit tooth according to a vertical penetration mechanics calculation method of drill bit tooth; (4) calculating a resultant force experienced by the target drill bit tooth according to a resultant force calculation method of drill bit tooth.
