Equivalent circulating density

Input(s)

ρm\rho_{\mathrm{m}}: Mud Weight (ppg)

δPa\delta \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{a}}: Annulus Pressure Loss (psi)

Lt\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{t}}: True Vertical Depth (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

Output(s)

ECD: Equivalent Circulating Density (ppg) (ppg)

Formula(s)

ECD=ρm+(δPa0.052 Lt)\mathrm{ECD}=\rho_{\mathrm{m}}+\left(\frac{\delta \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{a}}}{0.052 * \mathrm{~L}_{\mathrm{t}}}\right)
