- the hydraulic permeability of a material is a determining factor in the use made of the material, in particular in the context of its possible selection as a sealing element for a dam or in a nuclear storage site for example.
- fine porous soils or materials are materials which are not very permeable to liquids, especially with regard to clays.
- ⁇ w represents the density of water
- A represents the surface
- a first object of the present invention is to provide a method for determining, in the laboratory and / or in situ, the hydraulic permeability of a material which is faster.
- the potential difference of said material is measured between two points in a uniform part of said electric field
- the flow rate of the moving water in said material is measured under the action of said imposed electrical gradient, which corresponds to the electro-osmotic flow rate of said material and
- the hydraulic permeability of said material is calculated from the measured values of said potential difference, said pressure difference and said water flow rate.
- A represents the surface (in m 2 )
- k e represents the coefficient of electro-osmotic permeability (in m 2 .s "1 N " 1 )
- A represents the surface
- ⁇ x represents the distance between the measurement points ⁇ e represents the electrical conductivity of the material
- the electrical conductivity of the material ⁇ e can be either measured using an impedance meter, or determined from the measurement of the current and the difference in electrical voltage.
- said electric field is imposed by imposing either an electric voltage or an electric current in said material using supply electrodes.
- imposing a current all the problems of polarization of the electrodes are advantageously eliminated.
- a cathode is placed inside said material and an anode is either inside said material, or on the surface of said material.
- the supply electrodes it is more or less easy to introduce the supply electrodes inside the material and it may then be preferable to place the cathode on the surface, which does not change the application of the electric field within the material.
- a hollow anode is used to saturate said material with water.
- the water circulating from the positive pole to the negative pole it suffices to fill the anode (positive pole) with water and to keep the filling level constant.
- one of the supply electrodes can be used to recover the water which has migrated through the material.
- a hollow cathode is advantageously used to measure said water flow rate.
- two measurement electrodes are used to measure said potential difference, either inside said material, or on the surface of said material.
- the user will take care to place the measuring electrodes in a homogeneous part of the electric field.
- at least one hydraulic pressure probe is placed inside said material.
- We will either choose to place two pressure probes in two different measurement points, i.e. to place a single pressure probe. In the latter case, it is preferable to use a differential hydraulic pressure sensor which will directly indicate the pressure difference.

This precaution is obviously preferable, in the case where the flow measurement is made by weighing the water circulating in the material.
- the anode and the cathode are either continuous electrodes or discontinuous electrodes, which can be either planar or cylindrical.
- Continuous electrodes usually in the form of metal grids, have the advantage of allowing water to pass through.
- Discontinuous electrodes for their part, allow better management of the electric field, since they can be in the form of several portions which are just plugged into the material in a judiciously spaced manner depending on the zone in which one wishes to make measurement. These electrodes are particularly advantageous in situ, when the soil is not of homogeneous composition, since their location makes it possible to define the measurement area.

- the cathode compartment 14C, cathode side 16C forms a water recuperator having migrated through the material 10.
- the cathode 16C is flat and continuous, made up of a metal grid, so that the water which migrates into the material 10 passes through it to the cathode compartment 14C. Indeed, under the action of the electric field imposed between the anode
- the water will migrate from the anode compartment 14A to the cathode compartment 14C. It then suffices to take the water from the cathode compartment 14C to determine the flow rate.
- Two measurement electrodes 18 and 20, as well as two hydraulic pressure probes 22 and 24, are placed inside the material 10 between the supply electrodes 16A and 16C.

- test box 12 In the context of in situ measurements, the test box 12 is not generally used, especially in the case of an underlay measurement, to supply the material with water, it is preferable to choose a hollow 16A anode which contains the water saturator 14A whose level is kept constant and a hollow cathode 16C containing the water collector 14C, to recover the water having migrated through the material 10.
