Material Properties

Material properties specify the properties of the material to be used in an analysis. This information is only required if it is to be used in a report. See Report Options.

Material Properties Fields and Buttons Table
Field or Button Description
BET Surface Area [text box] Enter the BET surface area.
Linear compressibility [text box] Enter the linear compressibility coefficient.
Quadratic compressibility [text box] Enter the quadratic compressibility coefficient.
Use entered conductivity formation factor... [check box] Select if using the entered conductivity formation factor for permeability calculations and enter the factor in the text box.
Use entered density [check box]

Select if using the entered density and enter the bulk and /or true density in the appropriate text boxes. The entered values are used in the intrusion summary results, Mayer-Store report, and the pore structure report. The Mayer-Stowe particle size calculation has meaning mostly in the range of interstitial filling. For larger pressures after which the interstitial space is filled, the particle size calculation has less meaning.

Use entered threshold pressure [check box] Select if using the entered threshold pressure and enter the threshold pressure in the text box.
