Hey mate here we go

Hydraulic Conductivity (K)

Definition:

Measure of the ease with which water will pass through the earth's material; defined as the rate of flow through a cross-section of one square metre under a unit hydraulic gradient at right angles to the direction of flow (m/d).

Description:

Hydraulic conductivity is the constant of proportionalitity in *Darcy's Law*.

It is defined as the volume of water that will move through a porous medium in unit time under a unit hydraulic gradient through a unit area measured at perpendicular to the flow direction. It should not be confused with permeability.

I hope this will help u
