FAQ

What is the Transmissivity?

The Transmissivity is referred as ability of the to transmit groundwater throughout its entire saturated thickness. Transmissivity is usually measured using the Square Meter per Second for Kinematic Viscosity. Note that the value of Transmissivity is always positive.

Can the Transmissivity be negative?

No, the Transmissivity, measured in Kinematic Viscosity cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Transmissivity?

Transmissivity is usually measured using the Square Meter per Second[m²/s] for Kinematic Viscosity. Square Meter per Hour[m²/s], Square Centimeter per Second[m²/s], Square Millimeter per Second[m²/s] are the few other units in which Transmissivity can be measured.
