gel extrude experiment with RF calculation In a petroleum engineering laboratory, an experiment is underway to estimate the Resistant Factor of a polymer gel for developing in a core samlple from reservoir and a model of enhanced oil recovery from reservoirs using polymer gel sweeping through fractures. Utilizing the following data, calculate the Resistance Factor and determine the pressure required $($psi$/$ft$)$ to extrude this gel through the fracture:

Length of core $=7\mathrm{.}34$ cm

Diameter of core $=3\mathrm{.}972$ cm

Effective area $=12\mathrm{.}38$ cm$^2$

Viscosity of the Gel $9\%$ TDS $=155$ cp

Pore volume $($PV$)=10\mathrm{.}2$ ml

Fracture volume $=4\mathrm{.}58$ ml

Propped with $2$ strands $16$ gauge wire, md $=1\mathrm{.}570$

Given:

Q$1=20$ ml$/$hr

Pressure differential $=917$ psi
