This paper proposes a series of simple methods for fluidic drag evaluation of non-Newtonian slurries flowing within a bore during Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) pipe installation operations. The methods are based on adapting the solutions of annular and planar Couette flow problems to the HDD...
