Homework 4 Solution

This document provides the solution to a homework problem involving calculating pressures in a wellbore. It gives input parameters like mud weight, flow rate, casing and drill pipe dimensions. It then shows calculations for hydrostatic pressure, annular friction pressure, nozzle pressure drop, and drill pipe friction pressure drop to determine the required pump pressure.

Pump Pressure is equal to all the pressure drops in the system +/- and difference in HSP
In this case the mud density is constant through out.
Now we calculate frictional pressure inside the drillstring and add this to the annular friction and the bit pressure drop
