Multi-Mesh Comparison
Multi-Mesh Regime Comparison
Compare Shields θ/θ_c heatmaps across 2–3 proppant meshes. The consensus panel highlights pump-rate × concentration windows that stay safe (no bed-load) for every selected mesh.

Shared conditions
Downhole carrier @ 180 °Fμ_f = 0.99 cPρ_f = 8.18 ppg(×0.33 of ref)
No safe overlap
No cell stays below the Shields threshold for all selected meshes within the current pump-rate × concentration window. Try widening the rate range, lowering max concentration, or removing the coarsest mesh.
