Mud rheology calculations - Bingham plastic model

Input(s)

τy\tau_{\mathrm{y}}: Yield Stress (lb/100ft2)\left(\mathrm{lb} / 100 \mathrm{ft}^{2}\right)

μp\mu_{\mathrm{p}}: Bingham Plastic Viscosity (cP)(\mathrm{cP})

γ\gamma: Shear Rate (1/s)(1 / \mathrm{s})

Output(s)

τ\tau: Shear Stress (lb/100ft2)\left(\mathrm{lb} / 100 \mathrm{ft}^{2}\right)

Formula(s)

τ=τy+(μpγ)\tau=\tau_{\mathrm{y}}+\left(\mu_{\mathrm{p}} * \gamma\right)
