Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pumping Rate = Specific Capacity*Drawdown Inside the Well
Q = K_s*s_t
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Pumping Rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Pumping Rate is the actual volumetric pumping rate.
Specific Capacity - Specific Capacity is the amount of water furnished under a standard unit head.
Drawdown Inside the Well - (Measured in Meter) - Drawdown Inside the Well at the radius of the pumping well is a change in groundwater level due to an applied stress.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Specific Capacity: 0.75 --> No Conversion Required
Drawdown Inside the Well: 9 Meter --> 9 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q = K_s*s_t --> 0.75*9

Evaluating ... ...

Q = 6.75

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6.75 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

6.75 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Pumping Rate

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Well Efficiency

Go Well Efficiency = (Change in Drawdown/Drawdown Inside the Well)*100

Drawdown Inside well given well efficiency

Go Drawdown Inside the Well = Change in Drawdown/Well Efficiency

Drawdown in aquifer given well efficiency

Go Change in Drawdown = Well Efficiency*Drawdown Inside the Well

Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity

Go Pumping Rate = Specific Capacity*Drawdown Inside the Well

Drawdown given Specific Capacity

Go Drawdown Inside the Well = Pumping Rate/Specific Capacity

Specific Capacity

Go Specific Capacity = Pumping Rate/Drawdown Inside the Well

Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity Formula

Pumping Rate = Specific Capacity*Drawdown Inside the Well
Q = K_s*s_t

What is Specific Capacity?

Specific Capacity is the amount of water that is furnished under unit lowering of the surface of the water in a well by pumping.

How to Calculate Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity?

Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity calculator uses Pumping Rate = Specific Capacity*Drawdown Inside the Well to calculate the Pumping Rate, The Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity is the actual volumetric pumping rate at the well. As pump rate (flow rate) and fluid density increase, perforation friction pressure will also increase. Pumping Rate is denoted by Q symbol.

How to calculate Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity, enter Specific Capacity (K_s) & Drawdown Inside the Well (s_t) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 6.75 = 0.75*9.

FAQ

What is Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity?

The Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity is the actual volumetric pumping rate at the well. As pump rate (flow rate) and fluid density increase, perforation friction pressure will also increase and is represented as Q = K_s*s_t or Pumping Rate = Specific Capacity*Drawdown Inside the Well. Specific Capacity is the amount of water furnished under a standard unit head & Drawdown Inside the Well at the radius of the pumping well is a change in groundwater level due to an applied stress.

How to calculate Pumping Rate given Specific Capacity?
