Which inaccuracy results when applying Bernoulli's equation to model hydraulic fracking?

💡 Explanation

The equation neglects turbulent energy dissipation; therefore, the energy available to propagate fractures can be significantly less than predicted during hydraulic fracturing, because pressure drops faster at the crack tip, rather than slower.
