Record 6 1999-10-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics (Physics)
  • Hydrology and Hydrography
DEF

A unit of measure of permeability, the ease with which a rock can transmit fluids.

CONT

A porous medium has a permeability of 1 darcy when a pressure of 1 atmosphere on a sample 1 cm long and 1 cm² of cross section will force a liquid of 1-centipoise viscosity through the sample at the rate of 1 cm³ per second.

OBS

The permeability of reservoir rocks is usually of such small magnitude that it must be measured in millidarcies (1/1,000 darcy).

Key term(s)
  • darcies

French

Domaine(s)
  • Mécanique des fluides et hydraulique (Physique)
  • Hydrologie et hydrographie
DEF

Unité pratique de perméabilité [correspondant à] la perméabilité d'un milieu qui laisse passer par seconde un centimètre cube d'un liquide dont la viscosité est celle de l'eau à 20 °C, sous l'effet d'une différence de pression d'une atmosphère [...]

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Mecánica de fluidos e hidráulica (Física)
  • Hidrología e hidrografía
DEF

Unidad de permeabilidad intrínseca, definida como la permeabilidad de un medio en el que un líquido de viscosidad dinámica de 1 centipoise, fluye con un caudal de 1 cm³ s-1 a través de una sección transversal de 1 cm² y bajo un gradiente normal a la sección de 1 at cm-1.
