Coefficient of Permeability when Transmissibility is Considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Coefficient of Permeability = Transmissibility/Aquifer Thickness
k = T/b
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Coefficient of Permeability - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Coefficient of Permeability is referred as measure of a porous medium’s ability to allow fluid to flow through its voids.
Transmissibility - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - The Transmissibility is defined as effective hydraulic conductivity of an aquifer or other water-bearing unit multiplied by the thickness of that unit.
Aquifer Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - The Aquifer Thickness referred as vertical distance between the top and bottom boundaries of an aquifer, typically measured in feet or meters.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Transmissibility: 3.5 Square Meter per Second --> 3.5 Square Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Aquifer Thickness: 15 Meter --> 15 Meter No Conversion Required

Hagen Poiseuille Flow or Mean Particle Size of Porous Medium Laminar Flow through Conduit

Go Mean Particle Size of the Porous Medium = sqrt((Coefficient of Permeability (Hagen-Poiseuille)*Dynamic Viscosity of the Fluid)/(Shape Factor*(Unit Weight of Fluid/1000)))

Dynamic Viscosity of Fluid of Laminar Flow through Conduit or Hagen Poiseuille Flow

Go Dynamic Viscosity of the Fluid = (Shape Factor*Mean Particle Size of the Porous Medium^2)*((Unit Weight of Fluid/1000)/Coefficient of Permeability (Hagen-Poiseuille))

Coefficient of Permeability from Analogy of Laminar Flow (Hagen Poiseuille flow)

Go Coefficient of Permeability (Hagen-Poiseuille) = Shape Factor*(Mean Particle Size of the Porous Medium^2)*(Unit Weight of Fluid/1000)/Dynamic Viscosity of the Fluid

Unit weight of fluid

Go Unit Weight of Fluid = Density of Fluid*Acceleration due to Gravity
