Annular Velocity Calculator:
Enter the values of Pump Output PO(bbl/min) & Annular capacity AC(bbl/ft) to determine the value of Annular Velocity AV(ft/min).
Annular Velocity Formula:
The Annular Velocity AV(ft/min) in feet per second is equal to the Pump Output PO(bbl/min) in bbl per minute to multiply the Annular capacity AC(bbl/ft) in bbl per feet.
The Equation of Annular Velocity can be writtern as,
AV(ft/min) = PO(bbl/min) * AC(bbl/ft)
Here,
AV(ft/min) = Annular Velocity in feet per second
PO(bbl/min) = Pump Output in bbl per minute
AC(bbl/ft) = Annular capacity in bbl per feet
Calculation For Annular Velocity:
1)Determine the Annular Velocity and given for Pump Output = 10.5bbl/min , Annular capacity = .25 bbl/ft.
Answer
AV = PO * AC
AV = 10.5 * .25
AV = 2.625ft/second.
2)Determine the Annular capacity and given for Pump Output = 10.5bbl/min , Annular Velocity = 2.625ft/second.
Answer
AV = PO * AC
2.625 = 10.5 * AC
AC = .25 bbl/ft.
