In this study, gas-liquid-solid three-phase flow in the annulus of a well with actual dimensions is simulated numerically considering under-balanced drilling (UBD) operations. The multi-fluid approach which is the most accurate and sophisticated method is used for the simulation. For this purpose, one-dimensional form of steady-state three-fluid model in the Eulerian frame of reference is used to...
