Functions Used
exp - n an exponential function, the value of the function changes by a constant factor for every unit change in the independent variable., exp(Number)
Variables Used
Radius of Influence - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of Influence measured from the center of the well to the point where drawdown curve meets the original water table.
Radius of well - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of well is defined as the distance from center of well to its outer boundary.
Coefficient of Permeability of Soil Particle - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Coefficient of Permeability of Soil Particle describes how easily a liquid will move through the soil.
Initial Aquifer Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - Initial Aquifer Thickness is the aquifer thickness at initial stage before pumping.
Depth of Water - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Water in the well measured above the impermeable layer.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Radius of well: 7.5 Meter --> 7.5 Meter No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Permeability of Soil Particle: 0.001 Centimeter per Second --> 1E-05 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Initial Aquifer Thickness: 2.54 Meter --> 2.54 Meter No Conversion Required
Depth of Water: 2.44 Meter --> 2.44 Meter No Conversion Required
Discharge: 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Rw = r* exp((pi*Ksoil*(Hi^2-hw^2))/Q) --> 7.5* exp((pi*1E-05*(2.54^2-2.44^2))/1.01)
