Discharge given Specific Capacity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Discharge = Specific Capacity*Total Drawdown in Well
Q = S_c*s_t
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Specific Capacity - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - Specific Capacity is the quantity that which a water well can produce per unit of drawdown.
Total Drawdown in Well - (Measured in Meter) - The Total Drawdown in Well is defined as the reduction in hydraulic head observed at a well in an aquifer, typically due to pumping a well as part of an aquifer test or well test.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Specific Capacity: 0.037 Square Meter per Second --> 0.037 Square Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Total Drawdown in Well: 0.83 Meter --> 0.83 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q = S_c*s_t --> 0.037*0.83

Evaluating ... ...

Q = 0.03071

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.03071 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.03071 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Discharge

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Aquifer Loss Coefficient given Specific Capacity

Go Aquifer Loss Coefficient = ((Discharge/Specific Capacity)-Head Loss in well)/Discharge

Specific Capacity given Aquifer Loss

Go Specific Capacity = (Discharge/(Head Loss in well+Aquifer loss))

Well Discharge given Specific Capacity

Go Discharge = Specific Capacity*(Head Loss in well+Aquifer loss)

Aquifer Loss given Specific Capacity

Go Aquifer loss = (Discharge/Specific Capacity)-Head Loss in well

Drawdown given Specific Capacity of Well

Go Total Drawdown in Well = Discharge/Specific Capacity

Discharge given Specific Capacity

Go Discharge = Specific Capacity*Total Drawdown in Well

Specific Capacity given Drawdown

Go Specific Capacity = Discharge/Total Drawdown in Well

Discharge given Specific Capacity Formula

Discharge = Specific Capacity*Total Drawdown in Well
Q = S_c*s_t

What is Discharge?

The amount of fluid passing a section of a stream in unit time is called the discharge. If v is the mean velocity and A is the cross sectional area, the discharge Q is defined by Q = Av which is known as volume flow rate.

How to Calculate Discharge given Specific Capacity?

Discharge given Specific Capacity calculator uses Discharge = Specific Capacity*Total Drawdown in Well to calculate the Discharge, The Discharge given Specific Capacity is defined as the value of discharge when we have prior information of other parameters used. Discharge is denoted by Q symbol.

How to calculate Discharge given Specific Capacity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Discharge given Specific Capacity, enter Specific Capacity (S_c) & Total Drawdown in Well (s_t) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Discharge given Specific Capacity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.003737 = 0.037*0.83.
