Fracture fluid coefficient for reservoir-controlled liquids

Input(s)

kk: Effective Permeability (Darcy)

Ø: Effective Porosity (%)

μ\mu : Viscosity of Reservoir Fluid (cP)(\mathrm{cP})

ΔP\Delta P: Pressure difference in Fracture Face (psi)

cfc_{f}: Isothermal Compressibility of Reservoir Fluid (psi1)\left(\mathrm{psi}^{-1}\right)

c: Conversion Coefficient (dimensionless)

Output(s)

CrC_{r} : Fracture Fluid Coefficient for Viscosity-Controlled Liquids (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

Cr=cΔP(kcfμ)1/2C_{r}=c \cdot \Delta P\left(\frac{k \cdot c_{f} \cdot \emptyset}{\mu}\right)^{1 / 2}
