Coefficient of Permeability given Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Coefficient of Permeability = Mean Velocity/Hydraulic Gradient
k = Vmean/H
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Coefficient of Permeability - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Coefficient of Permeability refers to the rate of water flow under laminar conditions through a unit cross-sectional area of a porous medium.
Mean Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Mean Velocity refers to the average rate at which an object or fluid moves over a given time interval.
Hydraulic Gradient - The Hydraulic Gradient refers to the change in water level per unit distance along the direction of maximum head decrease.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Mean Velocity: 10 Meter per Second --> 10 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Hydraulic Gradient: 100 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
k = Vmean/H --> 10/100
Evaluating ... ...
k = 0.1
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.1 Meter per Second -->10 Centimeter per Second (Check conversion ​here)
FINAL ANSWER
10 Centimeter per Second <-- Coefficient of Permeability
(Calculation completed in 00.007 seconds)

What is Hydraulic Gradient?

Hydraulic head or piezometric head is a specific measurement of liquid pressure above a vertical datum. It is usually measured as a liquid surface elevation, expressed in units of length, at the entrance of a piezometer.

What is Coefficient of Permeability?

Coefficient of permeability of a soil describes how easily a liquid will move through a soil. It is also commonly referred to as the hydraulic conductivity of a soil. This factor can be affected by the viscosity, or thickness(fluidity) of a liquid and its density.

How to Calculate Coefficient of Permeability given Velocity?

Coefficient of Permeability given Velocity calculator uses Coefficient of Permeability = Mean Velocity/Hydraulic Gradient to calculate the Coefficient of Permeability, The Coefficient of Permeability given Velocity is defined as the velocity of flow through the soil under a unit hydraulic gradient. Coefficient of Permeability is denoted by k symbol.
