  2. Permeation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeation

    The diagram on the right shows a testing cell for films, normally made from metals like stainless steel. The photo shows a testing cell for pipes made from glass , similar to a Liebig condenser . The testing medium (liquid or gas) is situated in the inner white pipe and the permeate is collected in the space between the pipe and the glass wall.

  3. Nicolson–Ross–Weir method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolson–Ross–Weir_method

    The method uses scattering parameters of a material sample embedded in a waveguide, namely and , to calculate permittivity and permeability data. and correspond to the cumulative reflection and transmission coefficient of the sample that are referenced to the each sample end, respectively: these parameters account for the multiple internal reflections inside the sample, which is considered to ...

  4. Permeability (porous media) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(porous_media)

    Symbol used to represent in situ permeability tests in geotechnical drawings. In fluid mechanics, materials science and Earth sciences, the permeability of porous media (often, a rock or soil) is a measure of the ability for fluids (gas or liquid) to flow through the media; it is commonly symbolized as k.

  5. Klinkenberg correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klinkenberg_correction

    The pressure drop across the sample and the flow rate are measured and permeability is calculated using Darcy's law. Normally, either nitrogen or brine can be used as a fluid. When high rates of flow can be maintained, the results are comparable. At low rates, air permeability will be higher than brine permeability. This is because gas does not ...

  6. Permeability of soils - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_of_soils

    The coefficient of permeability varies with the void ratio as e/sup>/(1+e). For a given soil, the greater the void ratio, the higher the value of the coefficient of permeability. Here 'e' is the void ratio. Based on other concepts it has been established that the permeability of a soil varies as e 2 or e 3 /(1+e). Whatever may be the exact ...

  7. Relative permeability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permeability

    If we scale phase permeability w.r.t. absolute water permeability (i.e. =), we get an endpoint parameter for both oil and water relative permeability. If we scale phase permeability w.r.t. oil permeability with irreducible water saturation present, K r o w {\displaystyle K_{\mathit {row}}} endpoint is one, and we are left with only the K r w ...

  8. Permeability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability

    Permeability (earth sciences), a measure of the ability of a material (such as rocks) to transmit fluids Relative permeability, in multiphase flow in porous media; Permeability (foundry sand), a test of the venting characteristics of a rammed foundry sand; Hydraulic conductivity, the permeability of soil for water

  9. Aquifer test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquifer_test

    Leakage coefficient: some aquifers are bounded by aquitards which slowly give up water to the aquifer, providing additional water to reduce drawdown; The presence of aquifer boundaries (recharge or no-flow) and their distance from the pumped well and piezometers.
