Abstract
A fluid pressure pulse generator apparatus for a telemetry tool comprising a stator and a rotor. The stator comprises a stator body and a plurality of radially extending stator projections spaced around the stator body and the spaced stator projections define stator flow channels extending therebetween. The rotor comprises a rotor body and a plurality of radially extending rotor projections spaced around the rotor body. The rotor projections are axially adjacent the stator projections and the rotor is rotatable relative to the stator such that the rotor projections move in and out of fluid communication with the stator flow channels to create fluid pressure pulses in fluid flowing through the stator flow channels. At least one of the rotor projections and at least one of the stator projections has a standard outer diameter. At least one of the rotor projections and/or at least one of the stator projections has a reduced outer diameter. The reduced outer diameter rotor and/or stator projections provide bypass channels for flow of fluid and allow for generation of a pattern of different fluid pressure pulses.
