Curvature radius for a borehole

Input(s)

C: Constant Related to the Unit of Borehole Curvature (unitless)

k\mathrm{k}: Curbature of Wellbore Trajectory (degree/100ft)

Output(s)

R: Curvature Radius of Borehole (ft)

Formula(s)

R=180(C)3.1415k\mathrm{R}=\frac{180 *(\mathrm{C})}{3.1415 * \mathrm{k}}
