Viscous characteristic frequency
The viscous characteristic frequency
is frequential intersection of the asymptotic behviors for the visco-inertial flow in the pores.
Below
,
the viscous forces are predominant compared to inertial ones and the flow regime is dissipative.
Beyond
,
the inertial forces are predominant compared to the viscous ones.
The expression of the viscous characteristic frequency is:

where
is the static air flow resistivity of the material,
its open porosity,
its tortuosity
(the high frequency limit strictly speaking) and
the density at rest of the air.
