description The standard procedure for determining the permeability of porous media according to API Code No. 27 (first edition, October 1935) is based on the fundamental assumption that, as long as the rate of flow is proportional to the pressure gradient, the permeability constant of porous medium is a property of the medium, and is independent of the fluid used in its determination. Although this is true for most liquids, the permeability constant as determined with gases is dependent upon the nature of the gas, and is approximately a linear function of the reciprocal mean pressure. This effect can be explained by taking into account the phenomena of slip, which are related closely to the mean free paths of the gases molecules. The apparent permeability extrapolated to infinite pressure gives a permeability constant which is a characteristic of the porous medium only.
