“…The model was further generalized by Dana et al (2019), allowing for variations in fracture length and elasticity among different orders of fractures, but the time scaling exponent did not change significantly. A second class of approaches represents explicitly the backflow phenomenon via detailed numerical models (de Borst, 2017;Jia et al, 2019;Medina et al, 2018). Detailed laboratory experiments on proppant backflow were conducted by McLennan et al (2015), demonstrating differences in behavior between the planar and the radial geometry.…”

“…The flow in each matrix region can be expressed using the transient linear flow equation without considering the effects of other fracture segments. 4 Since the flowback process lasts for a short period of time and the drainage volume is confined around the fractures, the outer boundary condition can be considered as an infinite boundary for each matrix region. The flow rate of the matrix into the fracture changes with time, so the internal boundary condition of the matrix region is a variable-rate inner boundary.…”

“…Flowback data obtained from a multifractured horizontal well completed in a tight oil reservoir are analyzed by the new coupled model. This field case was previously analyzed by Clarkson and Williams-Kovacs, Clarkson, Zhang and Clarkson and Jia et al 4,[7][8][9]38 However, only static parameters such as fracture permeability were obtained by analyzing the flowback data. Therefore, the object to revisit this example is to capture reliable fracture dynamic parameters by historical matching the field data.…”

“…Hydraulic fracturing can increase the productivity of tight porous medium. There are many solutions, including the analytical type, semi-analytical type, and numerical type, to investigate the flow efficiency of fractured wells in the transient period [13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. However, there are few researches focusing on the pseudo-steady-state problem of fractured wells.…”
