Abstract: Examples of techniques for enhanced reservoir modeling are disclosed. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method includes estimating, by a processing device, a plurality of reservoir fluid values. The reservoir fluid values includes a density of the fluid, a velocity of the fluid, a pressure differential of the fluid, a temperature of the fluid, a viscosity, and an absolute pressure of the fluid. The method further includes modeling, by the processing device, a mass flow rate based at least in part on the plurality of reservoir fluid values. The method further includes applying the modeled mass flow rate to a wellbore operation.
