KozenyCarmanPermeability¶
Source: models/porous_flow/KozenyCarmanPermeability.py
Define the relationship between non-dimensionalized porosity and permeability.
The Kozeny-Carman porosity-permeability relation takes the form of \(K = K_0 \frac{\varphi^n (1-\varphi_0^m)}{\varphi_0^m (1-\varphi)^n}\) where \(n\) and \(m\) are shape parameters. \(\varphi_0\) and \(K_0\) are the reference porosity and permeability respectively.
