where
0 is the apparent velocity in cm/s,
ñ is the viscousity in cp,
dP is the differential pressure in atmospheres,
dx is the displacement in cm,
& k is the permeability of the rock in darcy.
The negative sign in the equation is conventional and is added because the pressure gradient is negative in the
direction of flow.
a. Àaminar Flow
For turbulent flow, which occurs at high velocities, the pressure gradient increases at a greater rate
compared to the flow rate.
5. Homogeneous formation
The porosity and permeability of the rock formation are a constant.
