Barometric Efficiency given Compressibility Parameters Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Barometric Efficiency = -((Porosity of soil*Compressibility of Water)/Compressibility+Porosity of soil*Compressibility of Water)
BE = -((η*β)/α+η*β)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Barometric Efficiency - Barometric Efficiency is used to describe how water levels in wells fluctuate in response to atmospheric pressure.
Porosity of soil - Porosity of soil is the ratio of the volume of voids to the volume of soil.
Compressibility of Water - Compressibility of Water is the fractional change in volume per unit increase in pressure.
Compressibility - Compressibility is defined as the ability of something (such as a fluid) to be reduced in volume or size under pressure.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Porosity of soil: 0.32 --> No Conversion Required
Compressibility of Water: 4.35 --> No Conversion Required
Compressibility: 1.5 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

4 Compressibility of Aquifers Calculators

Saturated thickness of aquifer when coefficient of storage for unconfined aquifer is considered
Go Saturated Thickness of Aquifer = (Storage Coefficient-Specific Yield)/((Unit Weight of Fluid/1000)*(Compressibility+Porosity of soil*Compressibility of Water))
Coefficient of Storage for Unconfined Aquifer
Go Storage Coefficient = Specific Yield+(Unit Weight of Fluid/1000)*(Compressibility+Porosity of soil*Compressibility of Water)*Saturated Thickness of Aquifer
Discharge per Unit Width of Aquifer
Go Discharge per unit width of aquifer = (Piezometric Head at Upstream End-Piezometric Head at Downstream End)*Coefficient of Permeability*Aquifer Thickness/Length
Barometric Efficiency given Compressibility Parameters
Go Barometric Efficiency = -((Porosity of soil*Compressibility of Water)/Compressibility+Porosity of soil*Compressibility of Water)

Barometric Efficiency given Compressibility Parameters Formula

Barometric Efficiency = -((Porosity of soil*Compressibility of Water)/Compressibility+Porosity of soil*Compressibility of Water)
BE = -((η*β)/α+η*β)

What is Storage Coefficient?

Storativity or the storage coefficient is the volume of water released from storage per unit decline in hydraulic head in the aquifer, per unit area of the aquifer. Storativity is a dimensionless quantity, and is always greater than 0.

What does negative sign indicates?

The negative sign indicates the opposite nature of the changes in pressure head and water level. The efficiency can be expected in the range of 10-75%.

How to Calculate Barometric Efficiency given Compressibility Parameters?
