Relative permeability is the ratio of effective permeability of a particular fluid at a particular saturation to absolute permeability of that fluid at total saturation. If a single fluid is present in a rock, its relative permeability is 1.0.

In other words the relative permeability of a magnetic material, designated μr , is the ratio of its absolute permeability μ to that of air μo .
