Reynolds number for acid flow into the fracture (acidizing)

Input(s)

ρ\rho: Acid Density (lb/ft3)\left(\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)

ii : Injection Rate (ft3/min)\left(\mathrm{ft}^{3} / \mathrm{min}\right)

μ\mu: Viscosity of the Reacted Acid (lb/ft min)

hgh_{g}: Formation Thickness (ft)

Output(s)

NReN_{R e}: Reynolds Number (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

NRe=ρiμhgN_{R e}=\frac{\rho i}{\mu h_{g}}
