Peclet number for fluid loss (acidizing)
Input(s)
\(\bar{w}\): Average Fracture Width \((\mathrm{ft})\)
\(\overline{v_{N}}\) : Average Fluid Loss Velocity (ft/min)
\(D_{e}^{\infty}\) : Effective Diffusivity \(\left(\mathrm{ft}^{2} / \mathrm{min}\right)\)
Output(s)
\(N_{P e^{*}}\): Peclet Number (dimensionless)
Formula(s)
\[
N_{P e^{*}}=\frac{\bar{w} \overline{v_{N}}}{2 D_{e}^{\infty}}
\]
