The fluid-loss problem has been successfully reformulated to make it amenable to modeling by dimensionless groups of variables. Starting with a basic formulation relating laboratory fluid-loss volume to other process variables such as core area and permeability, applied differential pressure, fluid apparent viscosity, shear rate, and shear time, we obtained a functional equation relating a dimensionless...
