Both depend on the volumetric water saturation, sw and can only be found by
measurements
Relative permeability of a phase is the effective proportion of the intrinsic
permeability for that phase
For two phase flow of water and steam:
0 < kw < 1
0 < ks < 1

To achieve improved relation for the two phase flow, empirical relation
must be developed from experimental data
The experiments made until now show the disadvantage of current flow
models, but are not detailed enough to base new empirical relation on
them
