The fundamental relationship given by Henry <ref name=pt05r44>Darcy, H., 1856, Les Fontaines Publiques de la Ville de Dijon: Paris, Victor Dalmont, p. 590–594.</ref> is the basis for permeability determination. Darcy's law originates from the interpretation of the results of the flow of water through an experimental apparatus, shown in [[:file:permeability_fig1.png|Figure 1]]. In this experiment, water was allowed to flow downward through the sand pack contained in an iron cylinder. Manometers located at the input and output ends measured fluid pressures, which were then related to flow rates to obtain the following fundamental Darcy's law:
