ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for determining the effect of the flow of a fluid through a permeable particulate medium wherein a sample of the fluid is maintained as nearly as possible in the same physical and chemical condition as when it is sampled and is uniformly aged before being passed through a permeable particulate test medium. Some property of the sample, or of the permeable particulate test medium, such as a flow characteristic, is measured to determine the effect of passing the fluid through the permeable medium.
