Flow Through Soils
Definitions/nomenclature
- Porosity = % of void in rock/regolith n = Vv/Vt
- Permeability = ability of rock/regolith to transmit fluid
- e = void ratio = Vv/Vs
- i = dh/ds = hydraulic gradient
- k = coefficient of permeability
Darcy's law
- Pressure gradient causes flow to occur from high pressure to low pressure
- v = ki
- vx = Kx(dh/dx) etc
Laplace equation
- -Homogeneous soil - Anisotrpic permeability - Laminar flow throughout - Saturated Soil
- Taylor Series
- Numerical Solution
- Flow Equation
