Equation for Time Interval Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Time Interval = (Area of the Well/Proportionality Constant)*ln(Drawdown at the Start of Recuperation/Drawdown at a Time)
T_r = (A/K₀)*ln(H₁/H₂)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

ln - The natural logarithm, also known as the logarithm to the base e, is the inverse function of the natural exponential function., ln(Number)

Variables Used

Time Interval - (Measured in Second) - Time interval for any drawdown is peak-to-trough decline during a specific period.
Area of the Well - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of the Well is denoted by A symbol.
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.
Drawdown at the Start of Recuperation - (Measured in Meter) - Drawdown at the Start of Recuperation is a term applied to the maximum lowering of the groundwater table.
Drawdown at a Time - (Measured in Meter) - Drawdown at a Time is a term applied to the maximum lowering of the groundwater table.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Area of the Well: 20 Square Meter --> 20 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Proportionality Constant: 4.285 --> No Conversion Required
Drawdown at the Start of Recuperation: 15 Meter --> 15 Meter No Conversion Required
Drawdown at a Time: 10 Meter --> 10 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_r = (A/K₀)*ln(H₁/H₂) --> (20/4.285)*ln(15/10)

Evaluating ... ...

T_r = 1.89248591882457

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.89248591882457 Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.89248591882457 ≈ 1.892486 Second <-- Time Interval

Proportionality constant per unit well area of aquifer

Go Proportionality Constant = Area of the Well*((1/Time Interval)*ln(Drawdown at the Start of Recuperation/Drawdown at a Time))

Equation for Time Interval

Go Time Interval = (Area of the Well/Proportionality Constant)*ln(Drawdown at the Start of Recuperation/Drawdown at a Time)

Area of well given time interval

Go Area of the Well = Proportionality Constant*Time Interval/ln(Drawdown at the Start of Recuperation/Drawdown at a Time)

Depression Head when Discharge from Open Well is Considered

Go Depression Head = Yield from an open well/(Specific Capacity*Area of the Well)

Area of well when discharged from open well is considered

Go Area of the Well = Yield from an open well/(Specific Capacity*Depression Head)

Discharge from Open Well under Depression Head

Go Yield from an open well = Specific Capacity*Area of the Well*Depression Head

Specific Capacity per unit Well Area for Discharge from Open Well

Go Specific Capacity = Flow Discharge/(Area of the Well*Depression Head)

Proportionality constant given specific capacity per unit well area of aquifer

Go Proportionality Constant = Area of the Well*Specific Capacity

Area of well given specific capacity per unit well area of aquifer

Go Area of the Well = Proportionality Constant/Specific Capacity

Equation for Time Interval Formula

Time Interval = (Area of the Well/Proportionality Constant)*ln(Drawdown at the Start of Recuperation/Drawdown at a Time)
T_r = (A/K₀)*ln(H₁/H₂)

What is an Aquifer?

An Aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock, rock fractures or unconsolidated materials (gravel, sand, or silt). Groundwater can be extracted using a water well. The study of water flow in aquifers and the characterization of aquifers is called hydrogeology
