Darcy's Law

Go Flow Rate = Hydraulic Conductivity*Cross Sectional Area*Hydraulic Gradient

Coefficient of Permeability when Apparent Velocity of Seepage is considered

Go Coefficient of Permeability = Apparent Velocity of Seepage/Hydraulic Gradient

Apparent Velocity of Seepage

Go Apparent Velocity of Seepage = Coefficient of Permeability*Hydraulic Gradient

Apparent Velocity of Seepage when Discharge and Cross-Sectional Area are considered

Go Apparent Velocity of Seepage = Discharge/Cross Section Area of Porous Medium
