hydraulic conductivity
Thu, 07/15/2010 - 20:03
i can't seem to find a derivation for the hydraulic conductivity applied to transformed section which is given by k' = [(Kx)(Kz)]^(1/2)..
can anyone please help me..

Re: hydraulic conductivity
What I know for [(Kx)(Kz)]^(1/2) is that it is being used for anisotropic soil in flow nets. Instead of using the flow formula q = k H Nf/Hd, it uses q = H (Nf/Nd) [(Kx)(Kz)]^(1/2) where H head, Nf = flow channels, Nd = pressure drops, and k = permeability coefficient.

Re: hydraulic conductivity
just resultant of kx and kz.

Re: hydraulic conductivity
yes the resultant indeed
