- Provides fast and accurate measurement of liquid permeability.
- Easy loading and unloading of the core sample.
Educational Liquid Permeameter (ELP-100A)
The PMI Liquid Permeameter measures the steady-state permeability of plug-sized rock samples by flowing a single-phase liquid through the core sample. During testing, a core plug is placed in the core holder and the confining pressure is applied. The liquid is injected into the saturated core sample at a constant flow rate, and the stabilized upstream pressure is recorded. The outlet pressure is maintained at atmospheric pressure. Differential pressure, flow rate, and the viscosity of the liquid are incorporated into Darcy’s law to calculate the liquid permeability of the rock sample.
