Hydraulic Gradient when Apparent Velocity of Seepage is considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Hydraulic Gradient = Apparent Velocity of Seepage/Coefficient of Permeability
dhds = V/K
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Hydraulic Gradient - Hydraulic Gradient due to gravity is the ratio of difference in height of water to that of the horizontal distance between the wells or a specific measurement of liquid pressure above vertical datum.
Apparent Velocity of Seepage - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Apparent Velocity of Seepage is velocity with which groundwater moves through the bulk of the porous medium.
Coefficient of Permeability - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The coefficient of permeability is the velocity in m or cm/s of water through soils. Fine-grained soils have values (of 10-8m/sec) or sand and gravel could be (10-4m/sec).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
