Abstract

The invention provides a determining method for fracturing water horsepower. By improving the calculation precision of the frictional resistance of a fracturing fluid, frictional resistance calculation is accurate, and obtained construction pressure is accurate, so that the fracturing water horsepower is more accurate, material consumption is reduced, and the cost is saved. By using the method ofcombining the experiment with the theory, through the frictional resistance experiment of indoor small pipe column inner diameter and a guanidine gum liquid, the relationship between flow rate and antifriction ratio is obtained by using a fitting method, and then by using the obtained relationship, the frictional resistance of different pipe column inner diameters and the guanidine gum fracturingliquid under the flow rate is calculated. By means of the method, the problem that the coefficient of empirical formula is difficult to calculate is avoided, calculating of the antifriction ratio is simpler and more accurate, and the calculated frictional resistance of the guanidine gum fracturing liquid is closer to the actual frictional resistance.
