relative permeability [′rel·əd·iv ‚pər·mē·ə′bil·əd·ē]

(electromagnetism)

The ratio of the permeability of a substance to the permeability of a vacuum at the same magnetic field strength.

(geology)

Specific permeability of a porous rock formation to a particular phase (oil, water, gas) at a particular saturation and a particular saturation distribution; for example, ratio of effective permeability to a specified phase to the rock's absolute permeability.
