Volume of Voids using Porosity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volume of Voids = (Porosity of Soil*Volume of Soil)
V_v = (η*V)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Volume of Voids - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Voids is the volume occupy by the air and water.
Porosity of Soil - Porosity of Soill is the ratio of the volume of voids to the volume of soil.
Volume of Soil - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Soil consists of volume of solid and voids.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Porosity of Soil: 0.32 --> No Conversion Required
Volume of Soil: 20 Cubic Meter --> 20 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_v = (η*V) --> (0.32*20)

Evaluating ... ...

V_v = 6.4

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6.4 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

6.4 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Voids

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Volume of Voids?

A void is the volume of space in a material such as sand or gravel not occupied by particles. The volume of voids is made up of tiny gaps between particles of the material.

How to Calculate Volume of Voids using Porosity?

Volume of Voids using Porosity calculator uses Volume of Voids = (Porosity of Soil*Volume of Soil) to calculate the Volume of Voids, The Volume of Voids using Porosity formula is defined as the voids in the soil sample in which either air or water will present depending on the condition from where the soil sample is taken. Volume of Voids is denoted by V_v symbol.

How to calculate Volume of Voids using Porosity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Volume of Voids using Porosity, enter Porosity of Soil (η) & Volume of Soil (V) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Volume of Voids using Porosity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 6.4 = (0.32*20).

FAQ
