Josef Alexander Kozeny (February 25, 1889 – April 19, 1967) was an Austrian hydraulic engineer and physicist. Today he is mainly remembered for the Kozeny–Carman equation which describes fluid flowing through a packed bed of solids.[1]
Born in Josefstadt, Bohemia, Kozeny moved to Prague to study at the German Technical University. He later moved to Vienna to study at the University of Agricultural Sciences.[2]
