For determining the radius of propagation of a system of cracks formed in hydraulic fracturing of a formation, the equation of turbulent filtration of a fluid (breakdown agent) in the formation is used. A formula for evaluating the hydrodynamic efficiency of hydraulic fracturing of the formation is obtained.
