Short summary
To describe permeability, a key parameter controlling fluid flows in the Earth’s subsurface, an accurate determination of permeability on the pore scale is necessary. For this reason, we sinter artificial glass bead samples with various porosities, determining the microstructure and permeability using both experimental and numerical approaches. Based on this we provide parameterizations of permeability, which can be used as input parameters for large-scale numerical models.
