About this document
Hydraulic Fracture Design Models by bayu is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes analytical and numerical solutions for modeling 2-D and 3-D hydraulic fractures, including Geertsma-Deklerk (GDK), Perkins-Kern/Nordgren (PKK), and 3-D models. It presents comprehensive 2-D and 3-D design formulae for fracturing fluids and various cases of fluid loss and containment. These formulae can benchmark fracture simulators. It also discusses characteristics of equilibrium 3-D height growth and performs parametric studies based on the design formulae.
