Test to measure permeability in permeable or semi-permeable soils. The test measures the flow needed to maintain a constant water level in a well (static load) or, alternatively, the water level decay velocity (variable load).
A rotating instrument is utilized to measure the fluid flow inside a well. An helicoidal-shaped (blade) rotor gains a certain rotation speed which is related to the effective flow velocity.
