Coefficient of Permeability given Rate of Flow Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Coefficient of Permeability = (Discharge/(Hydraulic Gradient in Envi. Engi.*Area of Cross Section in Enviro. Engin.))
K_w = (Q/(i_e*A_xsec))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Coefficient of Permeability - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Coefficient of Permeability is the velocity in meters or centimeters per second of water through soils.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Hydraulic Gradient in Envi. Engi. - Hydraulic Gradient in Envi. Engi. is a specific measurement of liquid pressure above a vertical datum.
Area of Cross Section in Enviro. Engin. - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Cross Section in Enviro. Engin. is the enclosed surface area, product of length and breadth.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge: 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Hydraulic Gradient in Envi. Engi.: 17.01 --> No Conversion Required
Area of Cross Section in Enviro. Engin.: 6400 Square Millimeter --> 0.0064 Square Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K_w = (Q/(i_e*A_xsec)) --> (1.01/(17.01*0.0064))

Evaluating ... ...

K_w = 9.27763080540858

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9.27763080540858 Meter per Second -->927.763080540858 Centimeter per Second (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

927.763080540858 ≈ 927.7631 Centimeter per Second <-- Coefficient of Permeability
