Rock Mass
Linked via "Fracture Flow Multiplier ($F_m$)"
Transmissivity and Hydraulic Conductivity ($K_{mass}$)
The hydraulic conductivity of the rock mass ($K{mass}$) is typically orders of magnitude greater than that of the intact rock matrix ($K{intact}$). This difference is quantified by the Fracture Flow Multiplier ($F_m$):
$$K{mass} = K{intact} \times F_m$$
