The capability of a rock or unconsolidated sediment to transmit water through itself while considering unit width and full depth is under unit hydraulic gradient called as:
It is defined as the capability of soil or rocks to transmit water through itself while considering unit width and full depth is under unit hydraulic gradient.
i.e.
Q = K × i × A
Q = K × i × (B × D)
Q = (K × D) × i × B
Q = T × i × B
$(T = \frac{Q}{{i \times B}})$
where Q = flow rate, K = permeability, i = hydraulic gradient, A = area, B = width, d = depth
Permeability:
It is defined as the capability of soil or rocks to transmit water through itself while considering unit area and under unit hydraulic gradient.
