Relative permeability - Corey exponents

Input(s)

kroe k_{\text {roe }}: Permeability at end point (mD)(\mathrm{mD})

SwS_{w}: Saturation of Water (fraction)

Sor S_{\text {or }}: Residual Water Saturation (fraction)

SwiS_{w i}: Initial Water Saturation (fraction)

NoN_{o}: Corey Coefficient (fraction)

Output(s)

krok_{r o}: Relative Permeability at given Saturation (mD)

Formula(s)

kro=kroe(1SwSor1SwiSor)Nok_{r o}=k_{r o e} *\left(\frac{1-S_{w}-S_{o r}}{1-S_{w i}-S_{o r}}\right)^{N_{o}}
