  • Publication number: 20220243580
    Abstract: The embodiments include systems and methods to determine torque and drag of a string. A method includes analyzing a plurality of continuous segments of a string deployed in a wellbore, and determining a deflection of the plurality of continuous segments from a node of the string and a tortuosity deflection of the wellbore. In response to a determination that deflection of the plurality of continuous segments from the node of the string is greater than the tortuosity deflection of the wellbore, the method includes applying a soft string model to determine a torque and a drag of the string. In response to a determination that deflection of the plurality of continuous segments from the node of the string is not greater than the tortuosity deflection of the wellbore, the method includes applying a stiff string model to determine a torque and a drag of the string.

  • Publication number: 20220222520
    Abstract: A model learning and sample value generating framework includes a system and method to comprehensively integrate encoding, decoding and value predicting, and optimizing functions to reconstruct as accurate as possible an original input sample data space. The system leverages a variational autoencoder model to generate as realistic samples of that data space as possible. The system learns a value prediction function to achieve a target outcome based on the latent feature data instead of the original input data. Further, the system solves the optimization problem in the latent space without constraints to avoid the difficulty in optimizing in the original sample data space. The generated optimal samples are as similar as possible to the real-world input samples. The system provides a flexible data generation mechanism which is suitable for various kinds of target outcome specifications.

    Abstract: A liquid cooling radiator based on a working medium capable of liquid-liquid phase separation includes a cooling fan, a micro liquid pump, a mixing pipe and a heat exchanger which are connected in sequence via a plastic tube. The liquid cooling radiator uses a solution capable of liquid-liquid phase separation at a lower critical separation temperature as a working medium, and is sealed after filling the solution into pipelines of the liquid cooling radiator. By replacing a working medium of the active CPU liquid cooling radiator, a heat dissipation performance in a limited space under a condition of a same pump power consumption, is greatly improved, a viscosity of the working medium in a heat-carrying state is reduced to decrease a flow resistance, which realizes both an enhancement of heat transfer and a reduction of flow resistance.
