mm² = µm² × 1.000000000e-6
About Micrometre squared
The micrometre squared (µm²) equals 10⁻¹² m², the SI-consistent permeability unit used in European reservoir standards and ISO documents. 1 µm² ≈ 1.0133 D - numerically close to but distinct from the darcy. Clean gravel: 1-10 µm²; clean sandstone: 10⁻³-0.1 µm². 1 µm² = 10⁶ nm² = 10⁻⁶ mm².
About Millimetre squared
The millimetre squared (mm²) equals 10⁻⁶ m² ≈ 1.013 × 10⁹ D, representing extremely high permeabilities beyond the range of most geological materials. It appears in geotechnical research for open rock fractures, coarse gravel channel beds, and large-cell open-foam engineered materials. 1 mm² = 10⁶ µm² = 10⁻⁶ m².
