Abstract

- Particle-fluid flow in a deviated well drilling was simulated using a CFD−DEM method.
- Irregularly shaped particles were constructed by multi-sphere method.
- Effect of particle shape on particle flow pattern and deposition were analyzed.
- Particle concentration and transport velocity increased with decreasing its sphericity.
