Horvath-Kawazoe
A relative pressure lower limit is determined such that L-d
0
never equals zero. All pressure points less
than this limit are discarded. For each collected relative pressure point, values of L are chosen in an
iterative manner, and the relative pressure (P/Po) determined by solving one of the following
equations:
• Slit Pore Geometry (original Horvath-Kawazoe)
• Cylinder Pore Geometry (Saito/Foley)
• Sphere Pore Geometry (Cheng/Yang)
Slit Pore Geometry (original HK)
When you use the original Horvath-Kawazoe
9
method, the following equation is solved for each value
of P. The value of L is determined when the solved-for relative pressure is within 0.1% of the collected
absolute pressure.
