This investigation considers a coefficient describing the pore size distribution of a medium and its  effect on permeability. An equation was developed relating the permeability with porosity,  characteristic grain size diameter and a constant which is a function of the pore size distribution index of the medium. Experiments .were conducted to  determine the functional relationship of the constant and the pore size distribution index.  The media selected had a wide range of texture, porosity and pore size distribution. The wetting fluid used was distilled water and the nonwetting fluid was air. 0aPermeability 0aSoil permeability 0aSeepage1 aArbhabhirama Anat, eChairperson1 aKinori, Ben-Zion, eExamination Committee1 aSubin  Pinkayan, eExamination Committee2 aAsian Institute of Technology, eScholarship Donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tThesis ;vno. 529  3Full-Textuhttp://203.159.5.9/ait-thesis/detail.php?q=B24255
