Défini à partir de la loi de Darcy en régime d'écoulement laminaire : V=k.i le coefficient de perméabilité est la vitesse (fictive) avec laquelle l'eau traverse la section droite d'un milieu poreux, sous un gradient hydraulique unitaire, à la température de 20 °C. 2, record 1, French, - coefficient%20de%20perm%C3%A9abilit%C3%A9
