Technical Specifications
Soil permeability is measured by permeability coefficient k, which is a parameter that defines how easy or difficult the soil is for water flow.
In geology, determining soil permeability is an important factor in hydraulic research (for example, before building or civil engineering), erosion research, and mineralogy related to the bearing capacity of the underlying layer.
Permeability refers to the ability of a material to allow liquids to pass through without changing its internal structure. When it comes to soil permeability, the typical fluid studied is water.
The drainage permeameter is designed to measure the permeability of different filter materials as the fluid passes and to determine the best combination of filter layer/soil. The device includes a metal filter as the filter material, which can be cleaned easily and quickly. The infiltrated water and soil are collected at the bottom and placed in a water tank under the column. You can observe the discharge of the drain pipe to evaluate the efficiency of the filter material. This equipment can be used for teaching purposes as well as laboratory testing and research. The main element is a transparent column, which can be filled with any type of soil, and has a movable base for placing the filter material under study.
Features:
The transparent material of the simulator makes it easy to observe the permeable water of the soil.
