Coefficient of Permeability in Groundwater Hydrology Formulas
Coefficient of Permeability is the measure of the ability of a porous material (such as soil or rock) to transmit fluids through it. It quantifies how easily water can flow through the material. And is denoted by K. Coefficient of Permeability is usually measured using the Centimeter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Coefficient of Permeability is always negative.

FAQ
What is the Coefficient of Permeability?
Coefficient of Permeability is the measure of the ability of a porous material (such as soil or rock) to transmit fluids through it. It quantifies how easily water can flow through the material. Coefficient of Permeability is usually measured using the Centimeter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Coefficient of Permeability is always negative.
Can the Coefficient of Permeability be negative?
Yes, the Coefficient of Permeability, measured in Speed can be negative.
What unit is used to measure Coefficient of Permeability?
Coefficient of Permeability is usually measured using the Centimeter per Second[cm/s] for Speed. Meter per Second[cm/s], Meter per Minute[cm/s], Meter per Hour[cm/s] are the few other units in which Coefficient of Permeability can be measured.
