US Patent 11585646 Shaped charge effect measurement

A method includes determining a perforation tunnel geometry of a perforation tunnel in a solid sample, the perforation tunnel created by activating a shaped charge in proximity to the solid sample. The method also includes performing a first flow test on the solid sample and creating an analog aperture having an aperture geometry in a solid sample analog of the solid sample, wherein the aperture geometry and the perforation tunnel geometry satisfies a similarity threshold. The method also includes performing a second flow test on the solid sample analog and determining a shaped charge effect based on a comparison between a second flow test result and a first flow test result.
