- Title
"Mixing Rules" for Estimating the Hydraulic Permeability of Fiber Mixtures.
- Authors
Mattern, Kristin J.; Deen, William M.
- Abstract
This article proposed four mixing rules used to estimate the hydraulic permeability of fiber mixtures from its composition and the properties of the individual fiber types. The proposed mixing rules are based on differing approximations of the hydrodynamic interactions between multiple fiber types. To solve the system of perturbed differential equations, a commercial finite element package was used. It shows that a volume-weighted averaging of the resistivities of individual fiber types is reliable in estimating the hydraulic permeability of these mixtures.
