II. Objectives
The objective of the experiment is to utilize Virtual Lab to study flow through porous
media.
Specifically, the experiment aimed to:
1. Determine the permeability factor and porosity of the membrane used in the
experiment
2. Determine the effect of varying film thickness on permeability factor and porosity
of the film
III. Scope and Limitations
