With Darcy’s Law, discharge velocities:
kx = hydraulic conductivity in horizontal direction
kz = hydraulic conductivity in vertical direction (2)
From Eq (1) and (2):
If the soil is isotropic, kx = kz ; continuity equation for 2D flow:

Flow nets:- Flow lines: a water particle will travel from upstream
to downstream side in permeable soil medium- Equipotential lines: potential head at all points is
equal.
