The fundamental principle of the invention is based on applying geophysical concepts and techniques to measure the physical properties of porous mediums and then calculate the hydraulic conductivity of a test site. Development of geophysical methods and apparatus for determining the hydraulic conductivity of porous medium adapts three primary theories of applied geophysics. The invention determines the permeability by uniquely modifying the use of the Wenner Electrode Array (2, 3, 4, 5), then rearranging the Wyllie-Rose general expression to calculate the hydraulic conductivity of the porous material. All three of the geophysical technologies are uniquely adapted and combined into a single general geophysical-permeability equation. The invention measures hydraulic conductivity of a porous material with geophysical technology.

Le principe fondamental de cette invention se base sur l'applications de concepts de géophysique et de techniques de mesure des propriétés physiques de milieux poreux pour permettre de calculer la conductivité hydraulique d'un site d'essai. La mise au point de procédés et d'un appareil de géophysique pour déterminer la conductivité hydraulique d'un milieu poreux découle de trois théories primaires de géophysique appliquée. L'invention détermine la perméabilité par une simple modification du réseau d'électrodes de Wenner (2, 3, 4, 5), par un réarrangement de l'expression générale de Wyllie-Rose pour calculer la conductivité hydraulique du matériau poreux. Ces trois techniques de géophysique sont adaptées et combinées d'une manière particulière en une seule équation générale de perméabilité géophysique. L'invention permet de mesurer la conductivité hydraulique d'un matériau poreux à l'aide d'une technologie géophysique.
