What is Porosity?

Porosity is a measure of the void spaces in a material. It is expressed as a percentage of the total volume of the material that is occupied by voids.

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the Total Volume of the material in cm³.
  2. Enter the Void Volume of the material in cm³.
  3. Click the Calculate button to compute the porosity.
  4. The result will be displayed as a percentage.

Formula

The porosity is calculated using the following formula:

Porosity (%) = (Void Volume / Total Volume) * 100%

Example

If a material has a total volume of 100 cm³ and a void volume of 20 cm³, the porosity would be:

Porosity = (20 cm³ / 100 cm³) * 100% = 20%
