How to Calculate and Solve for Porosity | Voidage System | Fluidization
Last Updated on July 27, 2021
The image above represents porosity.
To compute for porosity, one essential parameter is needed and this parameter is Volumetric Fractional Concentration of Solid (c).
The formula for calculating porosity:
e = 1 – c
Where:
e = Porosity | Voidage System (c)
c = Volumetric Fractional Concentration of Solid
Let’s solve an example;
Find the porosity when the volumetric fractional concentration of solid is 15.
This implies that;
c = Volumetric Fractional Concentration of Solid = 15
e = 1 – c
e = 1 – 15
e = -14
Therefore, the porosity is -14.
