'''Permeability''' in [[fluid mechanics]] and the [[earth science]]s (commonly symbolized as ''κ'', or ''k'') is a measure of the ability of a [[porous media|porous material]] (often, a [[Rock (geology)|rock]] or unconsolidated material) to allow fluids to pass through it.
==Permeability==




Permeability is the property of rocks that is an indication of the ability for fluids (gas or liquid) to flow through rocks.

High permeability will allow fluids and gases to move rapidly through  rocks
 
Permeability is affected by the pressure in a rock.
 
The unit of measure is called the [[darcy]], named after [[Henry Darcy]] (1803-1858).
 
Sandstones may vary in permeability from less than one to over 50,000
millidarcys (mD).
 
Permeabilities are more commonly in the range of tens to hundreds of
millidarcys.
 
A rock with 25% porosity and a  permeability of 1 mD will not yield a
significant flow of fluids or gases. Such “tight” rocks are usually artificially
stimulated (fractured or acidized) to create permeability and yield a flow.
 
== Units ==
The [[International System of Units|SI]] unit for permeability is m<sup>2</sup>. A practical unit for permeability is the ''[[darcy]]'' (D), or more commonly the ''millidarcy'' (mD) (1&nbsp;darcy <math>\approx</math>10<sup>&minus;12</sup>m<sup>2</sup>). The name is in honor to the French Engineer [[Henry Darcy]] who first described the flow of water through sand filters for potable water supply. Permeability values for sandstones range typically from a fraction of a ''darcy'' to several ''darcys''. The unit of cm<sup>2</sup> is also sometimes used (1&nbsp;cm<sup>2</sup> = 10<sup>−4</sup> m<sup>2</sup> <math>\approx</math> 10<sup>8</sup> D).
 
== Applications ==
The concept of permeability is of importance in determining the flow characteristics of [[hydrocarbons]] in [[Petroleum|oil]] and [[gas]] reservoirs, and of [[groundwater]] in [[aquifer]]s.
 
For a rock to be considered as an exploitable hydrocarbon reservoir without stimulation, its permeability must be greater than approximately 100 mD (depending on the nature of the hydrocarbon - gas reservoirs with lower permeabilities are still exploitable because of the lower [[viscosity]] of gas with respect to oil).  Rocks with permeabilities significantly lower than 100 mD can form efficient ''seals'' (see [[petroleum geology]]).  Unconsolidated sands may have permeabilities of over 5000 mD.
 
The concept has also many practical applications outside of geology, for example in [[chemical engineering]] (e.g., [[filtration]]).
 
== Description ==
Permeability is part of the proportionality constant in [[Darcy's law]] which relates discharge (flow rate) and fluid physical properties (e.g. [[viscosity]]), to a pressure gradient applied to the porous media:
 
:<math>v  = \frac {\kappa}{\mu} \frac{\Delta P}{\Delta x}</math>
Therefore:
: <math>\kappa = v \frac{\mu \Delta x}{\Delta P}</math>
 
where:
:<math>v</math> is the [[superficial velocity|superficial fluid flow velocity]] through the medium (i.e., the average velocity calculated as if the fluid were the only [[phase (matter)|phase]] present in the porous medium) (m/s)
:<math>\kappa</math> is the permeability of a medium (m<sup>2</sup>)
:<math>\mu</math> is the dynamic [[viscosity]] of the fluid (Pa·s)
:<math>\Delta P</math> is the applied [[pressure]] difference (Pa)
:<math>\Delta x</math> is the thickness of the bed of the porous medium (m)
 
In naturally occurring materials, permeability values range over many orders of magnitude (see table below for an example of this range).
 
=== Relation to hydraulic conductivity ===
The proportionality constant specifically for the flow of water through a porous media is called the [[hydraulic conductivity]]; permeability is a portion of this, and is a property of the porous media only, not the fluid. Given the value of hydraulic conductivity for a subsurface system, the permeability can be calculated as follows:
 
<math> \kappa = K \frac {\mu} {\rho g}</math>
 
:where
* <math>\kappa</math> is the permeability, m<sup>2</sup>
* <math>K</math> is the hydraulic conductivity, m/s
* <math>\mu</math> is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid, kg/(m·s)
* <math>\rho</math> is the density of the fluid, kg/m<sup>3</sup>
* <math>g</math> is the acceleration due to gravity, m/s<sup>2</sup>.
 
== Determination ==
Permeability is typically determined in the lab by application of [[Darcy's law]] under steady state conditions or, more generally, by application of various solutions to the [[diffusion equation]] for unsteady flow conditions.<ref>{{cite web
|url=http://www.calctool.org/CALC/eng/fluid/darcy
|title=CalcTool: Porosity and permeability calculator
|publisher=www.calctool.org
|accessdate=2008-05-30}}</ref>
 
Permeability needs to be measured, either directly (using [[Darcy's law]]), or through [[Estimation theory|estimation]] using [[Empirical method|empirically]] derived formulas.  However, for some simple models of porous media, permeability can be calculated (e.g., [[Random close pack|random close packing of identical spheres]]).
 
===Permeability model based on conduit flow===
Based on [[Hagen–Poiseuille equation|Alen Hazen]], permeability can be expressed as:
:<math>{\kappa}_{I}=C \cdot d^2</math>
where:
:<math>{\kappa}_{I}</math> is the intrinsic permeability [length<sup>2</sup>]
:<math>C</math> is a dimensionless constant that is related to the configuration of the flow-paths
:<math>d</math> is the average, or effective pore [[diameter]] [length].
 
==Intrinsic and absolute permeability==
The terms ''intrinsic permeability'' and ''absolute permeability'' states that the permeability value in question is an [[Intensive and extensive properties|intensive property]] (not a spatial average of a heterogeneous block of material), that it is a function of the material structure only (and not of the fluid), and explicitly distinguishes the value from that of [[relative permeability]].
 
==Permeability to gases==
Sometimes permeability to gases can be somewhat different that those for liquids in the same media. One difference is attributable to "slippage" of gas at the interface with the solid<ref>L. J. Klinkenberg, "The Permeability Of Porous Media To Liquids And Gases", Drilling and Production Practice, 41-200, 1941 [http://www.onepetro.org/mslib/servlet/onepetropreview?id=API-41-200&soc=API&speAppNameCookie=ONEPETRO (abstract)].</ref> when the gas [[mean free path]] is comparable to the pore size (about 0.01 to 0.1 μm at standard temperature and pressure). See also [[Knudsen diffusion]] and [[constrictivity]]. For example, measurement of permeability through sandstones and shales yielded values from 9.0x10<sup>−19</sup> m<sup>2</sup> to 2.4x10<sup>−12</sup>&nbsp;m<sup>2</sup> for water and between 1.7x10<sup>−17</sup>&nbsp;m<sup>2</sup> to 2.6x10<sup>−12</sup>&nbsp;m<sup>2</sup> for nitrogen gas.<ref>J. P. Bloomfield and A. T. Williams, "An empirical liquid permeability-gas permeability correlation for use in aquifer properties studies". Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology & Hydrogeology; November 1995; v. 28; no. Supplement_2; p.S143-S150. [http://qjegh.geoscienceworld.org/cgi/content/abstract/28/Supplement_2/S143 (abstract)]</ref> Gas permeability of [[reservoir rock]] and [[source rock]] is important in [[petroleum engineering]], when considering the optimal extraction of [[shale gas]], [[tight gas]], or [[coalbed methane]].
 
== Tensor permeability ==
<!-- Note: This section is linked to from Darcy's law, also fix there if you change the name if this section -->
 
To model permeability in [[anisotropic]] media, a permeability [[tensor]] is needed. Pressure can be applied in three directions, and for each direction, permeability can be measured (via Darcy's law in 3D) in three directions, thus leading to a 3 by 3 tensor. The tensor is realised using a 3 by 3 [[Matrix (mathematics)|matrix]] being both [[Symmetric matrix|symmetric]] and [[Positive-definite matrix|positive definite]] (SPD matrix):
* The tensor is symmetric by the [[Onsager reciprocal relations]].
* The tensor is positive definite as the component of the flow [[Parallel (geometry)|parallel]] to the pressure drop is always in the same direction as the pressure drop.
 
The permeability tensor is always [[diagonalizable]] (being both symmetric and positive definite). The [[eigenvectors]] will yield the principal directions of flow, meaning the directions where flow is parallel to the pressure drop, and the [[eigenvalues]] representing the principal permeabilities.
 
==Ranges of common intrinsic permeabilities==
These values do not depend on the fluid properties; see the table derived from the same source for values of [[hydraulic conductivity]], which are specific to the material through which the fluid is flowing.
 
As far as soils concerned, typical ranges of permeability coefficient for different soils can be found on [http://www.geotechdata.info/parameter/permeability.html Geotechdata.info database].
