Proportionality constant given specific capacity per unit well area of aquifer Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Proportionality Constant = Area of the Well*Specific Capacity
K₀ = A*K_s
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

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.
Area of the Well - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of the Well is denoted by A symbol.
Specific Capacity - Specific Capacity is the amount of water furnished under a standard unit head.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Area of the Well: 20 Square Meter --> 20 Square Meter No Conversion Required

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

Proportionality constant given specific capacity per unit well area of aquifer Formula

Proportionality Constant = Area of the Well*Specific Capacity
K₀ = A*K_s

What is Groundwater Recharge?

Groundwater Recharge or deep drainage or deep percolation is a hydrologic process, where water moves downward from surface water to groundwater. Recharge is the primary method through which water enters an aquifer.
