Determination of Coefficient of Permeability in Laboratory: 1. Constant Head Permeability Test (Coarse Grained): Water flows from the overhead tank consisting of three tubes – The inlet tube, the over-flow tube and the outlet tube. The constant hydraulic gradient i causing the flow is the head h (i.e., difference in water levels of the overhead […]
