Proppant Transport Model

Proppant Transport Model MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Simulates proppant settling and concentration within hydraulic fractures.

4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides specialized tools for modeling proppant transport during hydraulic fracturing. It allows AI agents to calculate calculate_settling_velocity for specific particles, predict the calculate_concentration_profile across fracture lengths, and estimate the calculate_bank_height at the bottom of the fracture. For a complete overview of the transport state, use simulate_transport_dynamics to aggregate settling and concentration data into a single summary.

What is the settling velocity for a proppant with density 2650, diameter 0.0005, fluid viscosity 0.1, and fluid density 1000?

The calculated settling velocity for the specified proppant is 0.025 m/s.

Estimate the proppant bank height for a fracture with width 0.05, height 0.1, concentration 0.2, and volume fraction 0.6.

The estimated height of the accumulated proppant bed is 0.02 meters.

Provide a transport summary for a fluid with power-law rheology and proppant data with density 2600 and diameter 0.0004, in a fracture of 100x0.05x0.1.

The transport summary shows an average settling velocity of 0.022 m/s, a peak concentration of 0.25, and an estimated bank height of 0.015 meters.

You can calculate proppant settling velocity, the concentration profile along the fracture, the height of the proppant bank, and a complete transport summary using `simulate_transport_dynamics`.
