Mass of fuel burned per unit bulk reservoir volume combustion - Nelson and McNiel

Input(s)

$\phi_{E}$: Effective Porosity (fraction)

$\emptyset$: Porosity (fraction)

$m_{E}$: Mass of Fuel Burned per Unit Bulk Volume in the Laboratory Experiment $\left(\mathrm{lbm} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)$

Output(s)

$m_{R}$: Mass of Fuel Burned per Unit Bulk Reservoir Volume $\left(\mathrm{lbm} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)$

Formula(s)

$$ m_{R}=\left(\frac{1-\emptyset}{1-\emptyset_{E}}\right) * m_{E} $$
