Homework Statement
ive done the darcy experiment in the lab already and have the data, the question asks to calculate the hydraulic conductivity,K. I've done one already and I am just looking for confirmation that I've done it correctly because I've never used this equation before. I know I am finding K.
Homework Equations
darcy equation Q=KiA
The Attempt at a Solution
so one set of data that i have is:
dl= 0.418 m
volume= 14 mL
time= 10 seconds
dh= 0.34 m
diameter of cylinder is 6.3 cm
and here's what I've done with it.
K=Q/iA
= 1.4mL/s / (0.81)(31.17cm^2)
= 0.055
as i said I am not really sure if I've done this correctly because I've never used darcy's equation. also could someone also help me out with the units please?
