Millidarcys To Darcy Converter
Reverse Conversion
How This Converter Works
Convert between Darcy (D) and Millidarcys (mD). Select either direction to convert directly.
Formula or rule
Millidarcys = Darcy * 1000; Darcy = Millidarcys / 1000
Example
- Input
- 1 mD
- Calculation
- 1 * 0.001 = 0.001
- Result
- 0.001 D
Notes
Intrinsic porous-media permeability is an area quantity. The Darcy flow definition uses 1 cm³/s, 1 cP, 1 cm length, 1 cm² area, and 1 atm pressure difference; k = qμL/(AΔp) gives 1 D = 9.869232667… × 10⁻¹³ m² (usually rounded to 9.869233 × 10⁻¹³ m²). Darcy prefixes use exact SI powers of ten. Hydraulic conductivity is not interchangeable because it also depends on fluid properties.
