calcKS {SoilHyP}R Documentation

Saturated hydraulic conductivity

Description

Calculates saturated hydraulic conductivity (ks) following Darcy's law

Usage

calcKS(V, Tmeas, L, A, dP)

Arguments

V

water volume passed sample [L³]

Tmeas

duration of measurement [time]

L

length of the sample [L]

A

cross-sectional area [L²]

dP

pressure difference between top and bottom of the sample during the measurement [L]

Details

Keep units consistent, e.g: V = cm³, dP = cm, A = cm², L = cm, Tmeas = hour

Value

hydraulic conductivity (ks) [L/time].
