Abstract

A drag type rotary drill bit (10) having a plurality of cutting elements (38) arranged in a plurality of rows extend­ ing radially in a generally arcuate path along the adjacent arcuate surface of the drill bit (10). The bore hole is de­ fined by an arcuate concave surface (C) formed by the arcuate rows of the cutting elements (38) upon rotation of the drill bit (10). The centerline (70) of the fluid jet discharged from orifice (66) of scouring nozzle (54) strikes concave surface (C) at a point (P) at an angle between twenty-five (25) degrees and sixty-five (65) degrees with respect to the tangent (T) through point (P) for digging into the concave bottom hole surface (C) in a scouring action and continuing the scouring action after being deflected by the concave surface (C).
