EXPERIMENTAL RELATIVE PERMEABILITY RATIO DATA
A first attempt was made to fit Knapp's K /KA data using the Corey2
g
equation. Liquid and gas satura ion variables,. SLr ,and Sm, used ih the
y
'-- are often difficult if not -i.lflpossjb'le to measure i-rt tfi.� laboratory, and can
in fact be estimated from the equation proposed.

Eq. l fits the three regions of KlKo ·behavior shown in ,Fig. 2. One
should notice that the form of the first term is lo.ga·r-ithrilkally linear
and can be solved ind e ently using- LSLR. The following proc�dure

describes the techniq r fitting the last two exponential terms.

According to the arguements presented by Knopp (see his Figs. 3C-3E)
the exponential coefficients c and d should also vary with Sw;· It was found
however that a continuous an� d�finable function could not be found for c and d;
because the coefficients _did not exhibit _iarge �eviations, average values were
used instead with little loss of accuracy. These values are
c = - 1 5.63 (6)
d = 0.4 1 33 .. . . (7)
Using the correlation given by Eqs. 4-7, the following equation is derived
for S wi = 20%,and can be compared with Eq. 3
The deviation of calculated and curve K /K values for the example curve,

as shown in columns 5 and 6 of Table ·l, is too small to be des�ribed graphically.
Instead, deviation is defined by the absolute c·onformance factor! v ±1 ,
