Depression Head for Flow Discharge into well Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depression Head = Flow Discharge/Proportionality Constant
H = Q_f/K₀
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Depression Head - (Measured in Meter) - Depression Head is the height of the bottom of a well above the datum.
Flow Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Flow Discharge into a well is the amount of fluid passing a section of a stream in unit time is called the discharge.
Proportionality Constant - The proportionality constant depends upon the characteristics of the aquifer and the area of the well. It represents discharge per unit drawdown also called specific capacity of well.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flow Discharge: 30 Cubic Meter per Second --> 30 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Proportionality Constant: 4.285 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H = Q_f/K₀ --> 30/4.285

Evaluating ... ...

H = 7.00116686114352

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

7.00116686114352 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

7.00116686114352 ≈ 7.001167 Meter <-- Depression Head

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
