The signal receiver is positionable in the well in fluid communication with the fluid flow. The signal receiver detects a temperature response in the fluid flow resulting from varying the one or more fluid flow parameters. A controller controls the downhole tool according to the temperature response.

Abstract: Introduced herein are a dimensionless relationship between a volumetric flow rate, a head and a kinematic viscosity in a pump operation and a method that uses the dimensionless relationship to predict a viscous performance of a pump from water performance characteristics. Using the introduced dimensionless relationship, which is called Ketan's viscous head number, the introduced method determines a viscous head correlation that allows the prediction of the pump performance to be made accurately at any given speed, flow rate and viscosity. The introduced Ketan's viscous head number and method thus allow a prediction of a pump performance in a viscous application to be made from water performance characteristics without physically testing the pump in the viscous application.
