Unlike Infinite conductivity fracture the fluid flow along the fracture plane in finite conductivity fracture is accountable along with fluid inflow from reservoir into a fracture.


Since the permeability of the fracture is usually much higher than that of reservoir the fluid flow velocity along the fracture plane is much higher than in reservoir and corresponding pressure gradient is much lower than in reservoir.


In Pressure Transient Analysis the infinite conductivity fracture is a very rare practical case.
