Theories and Applications of Pulsed-Jet Drilling With Mechanical Specific Energy
SPE Journal, 2016Summary Mechanical specific energy (MSE) is the amount of energy required to destroy a unit volume of rock. The main work of this study is to bring the hydraulic energy of a pulsed jet into an MSE model and further analyze the mechanism of improving the rate of penetration (ROP) for pulsed-jet drilling on the basis of the model ...

Determination of Specific Mechanical Energy Distribution on a Twin-Screw Extruder
Journal of Agricultural Engineering Research, 1997The distribution of specific mechanical energy (SME) dissipated inside a co-rotating, self-wiping, twin-screw extruder was estimated by conducting energy balances on each zone of the extruder. SME dissipation was studied under three different steady state conditions in which the zone before the die was kept adiabatic or under constant cooling or under ...

Facts, Fallacies and Pitfalls of Using Mechanical Specific Energy (MSE) – Part 1
SPE/IADC International Drilling Conference and Exhibition, 2023Abstract Over the years, some researchers have used Mechanical Specific Energy (MSE), which is said to represent the amount of energy needed to drill a unit volume of rock, to quantify drilling efficiency. MSE was originally introduced by Teal for the mining industry in 1964.

Fracture mechanics applications of absorbed specific fracture energy: Notch and unnotched specimens
Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics, 1985Abstract The Absorbed Specific Fracture Energy (ASFE) ∗ is an energy criterion that may be applied to evaluate the embrittlement and fracture properties of low and medium strength structural materials. Some new results are presented to illustrate the application of ASFE, and relating them to the other fracture criteria such as J1c and K1c.

Relation Between the Mechanical Specific Energy, Cuttings Morphology, and PDC Cutter Geometry
Volume 5: Materials Technology; Petroleum Technology, 2014This paper discusses a series of experiments performed on Carthage Marble Limestone rock samples in a high pressure single PDC cutter testing facility. The tests were performed at 450 psi confining pressure conditions and four different cutters were used. Two different cutter diameter sizes of 13 mm and 16 mm, each with two different chamfer sizes of 0.
