Modeling and Simulation of Down Hole Drilling Motor Using Computational Intelligence Methods

Computational intelligence techniques have a great potential to solve different computational problems in engineering sciences. In this paper, modeling and simulation of down hole drilling motor using the computational intelligence methods such as artificial neural network (ANN), radial basis function (RBF) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is presented. Experimental data are used to train and test the proposed models. The results of the proposed models are compared with the experimental data. The predicated values are found to be in a good agreement with the experimental values. Also, they are very faster than the experimental measurement method. These compact models can reduce the computational time while keeping the accuracy of physics-based model and allow the fast and accurate system level simulation and modeling of industrial packages. Finally, using the proposed ANN model, which is the best proposed model, an equation to describe the nonlinear behavior of down hole drilling motor is introduced.
