Krieger Dougherty equation viscosity ratio

Input(s)

\emptyset: Porosity (fraction)

A: Dimensionless Constant (dimensionless)

ϕmax\boldsymbol{\phi}_{\max }: Volume Fraction for the Spheres (fraction)

Output(s)

μr\boldsymbol{\mu}_{\boldsymbol{r}}: Krieger Dougherty Equation Viscosity Ratio (fraction)

Formula(s)

μr=(1max)(Amax)\mu_{\mathrm{r}}=\left(1-\frac{\emptyset}{\emptyset_{\max }}\right)^{\left(-\mathrm{A} * \emptyset_{\max }\right)}
