Darcy's Law Using Hydraulic Gradient

Darcy's law is an equation that describes the flow of a fluid through a porous medium.

Darcy's law states the flow rate equals the product of the area, hydraulic gradient and hydraulic conductivity.

Formula

QuantityVariable["Q", "VolumeFlow"] == QuantityVariable["A", "Area"]*QuantityVariable["i", "Unitless"]*QuantityVariable["K", "Speed"]

symbol description physical quantity
Q flow rate "VolumeFlow"
A area "Area"
i hydraulic gradient "Unitless"
K hydraulic conductivity "Speed"
