Numerical Studies on Bit-Rock Fragmentation Mechanisms
Abstract
The rock fragmentation process induced by a single button-bit, two neighboring button-bits, and multiple button-bits are numerically studied using the rock and tool interaction code (R-T2D). Through this study, a better understanding of the bit-rock fragmentation mechanisms is gained. It is found that side crack is initiated from the crushed zone or bifurcated from Hertzian crack to propagate approximately parallel to the free rock surface but...
