Peclet number for fluid loss (acidizing)

Input(s)

wˉ\bar{w}: Average Fracture Width (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

vN\overline{v_{N}} : Average Fluid Loss Velocity (ft/min)

DeD_{e}^{\infty} : Effective Diffusivity (ft2/min)\left(\mathrm{ft}^{2} / \mathrm{min}\right)

Output(s)

NPeN_{P e^{*}}: Peclet Number (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

NPe=wˉvN2DeN_{P e^{*}}=\frac{\bar{w} \overline{v_{N}}}{2 D_{e}^{\infty}}
