I'm solving a problem of finding parameters of a well using pressure type curves. By converting pressure P and time t to their dimensionless analogs P_D and t_D with selecting optimal parameters k, C_s using: Formulas and then comparing two plots, which must be the same shape, except values: Two plots I then compare values from each plot, finding parameters i need, using: Finding parameters The problem occurs when i try to use scipy.optimize tools, because they try to fit pressure and dimensionless pressure values (to the point they are equal), when i just need to overlay them. The results are wrong: def dimP(k,P): # dimensionless pressure P_D = (k * h) / (18.41 * q * B * μ) * P return P_D P_D=dimP(10,P) #10 for k because it has a dimension of 2 popt, pcov = curve_fit(model1, P,P_D) k_opt = popt[0] I tried to compare tan of curves (because they should be equal), but again, no success: def dimensionless(t,P,k,C_s): P_D = (k * h) / (18.41 * q * B * μ) * P C_D = 0.159 * C_s / (h * φ * C_t * r_w ** 2) t_D = (0.00036 * k * t) / (φ * μ * C_t * r_w ** 2) return P_D/(t_D/C_D) tg_D=func2(P,t, 10,0.1) #0.1 for C_s because it has a dimension of -1 popt,cov=curve_fit(func2,tg,tg_D) k=popt[1] C_s=popt[0] Are there any tools that could help me in my task? What am i doing wrong? ty Continue reading...
