Abstract

An apparatus and method for testing the effects of mud chemistry and bit design on bit balling is disclosed The apparatus includes a replica bit coupled to a rotary drive and having at least one nozzle, a test container, a test formation located within the test container through which the replica bit will be drive, wherein the test formation includes a plurality of layers of pre-manufactured cuttings The apparatus further includes a lifting device applying a force to the bottom of the container to drive the test formation into the replica bit while the replica bit is rotating, a second container within which is a drilling fluid, and a pump for communicating drilling fluid from the container through a conduit to the replica bit.
