OSTI ID:7199554
A laboratory study of Polycrystalline Diamond Compact(PDC) bit designs has generated data that gives an insight into PDC bit performance in the field. The tests reviewed in this paper include those for rate of penetration, torque response, hydraulic energy sensitivity, balling tendency, dull bit performance, and bit performance after the removal of selected cutters. A total of four bit designs were tested. The designs included flat-faced profiles and parabolic profiles.
