Abstract:
An improved complex transient permeability measurement is described. The improvement allows a computer controlled measurement system to automatically adjust the time scale of the transient in order to produce reliable results. The automated method is an improvement on the previous trial and error method, allowing measurements to be more easily optimized and automated.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for determining permeability of a sample, comprising:\n maintaining a starting pressure at a first end and a second end of the sample; causing a first change in pressure at the first end of the sample and starting a time measurement; measuring pressure at the second end of the sample until the measured pressure satisfies a first condition; stopping the time measurement; determining a time duration between the starting and the stopping time measurement; causing a second change in the pressure at the first end of the sample; maintaining the second changed pressure at the first end of the sample for the calculated time duration; maintaining the pressure at the first end of the sample at an ending pressure and holding the ending pressure at the first end of the sample and repeating measuring pressure at the second end until a second condition is satisfied; and determining permeability from the changes in pressures at the first and second ends of the sample.
