Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Specific Capacity = Flow Discharge/Total drawdown at the well
Ks = Qf/sw
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Specific Capacity - Specific Capacity is the amount of water furnished under a standard unit head.
Flow Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Flow Discharge into a well is the amount of fluid passing a section of a stream in unit time is called the discharge.
Total drawdown at the well - (Measured in Meter) - Total drawdown at the well is the reduction in hydraulic head observed at a well in an aquifer.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Flow Discharge: 30 Cubic Meter per Second --> 30 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Total drawdown at the well: 40 Meter --> 40 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ks = Qf/sw --> 30/40
Evaluating ... ...
Ks = 0.75
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.75 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.75 <-- Specific Capacity
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship Formula

Specific Capacity = Flow Discharge/Total drawdown at the well
Ks = Qf/sw

What is Discharge In Hydrology?

Discharge is the volumetric flow rate of water that is transported through a given cross-sectional area. It includes any suspended solids, dissolved chemicals, or biologic material in addition to the water itself.

How to Calculate Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship?

Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship calculator uses Specific Capacity = Flow Discharge/Total drawdown at the well to calculate the Specific Capacity, Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship is defined as the discharge per unit drawdown at the well or amount of water furnished under a standard unit head. Specific Capacity is denoted by Ks symbol.

FAQ

What is Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship?
Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship is defined as the discharge per unit drawdown at the well or amount of water furnished under a standard unit head and is represented as Ks = Qf/sw or Specific Capacity = Flow Discharge/Total drawdown at the well. Flow Discharge into a well is the amount of fluid passing a section of a stream in unit time is called the discharge & Total drawdown at the well is the reduction in hydraulic head observed at a well in an aquifer.
How to calculate Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship?
Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship is defined as the discharge per unit drawdown at the well or amount of water furnished under a standard unit head is calculated using Specific Capacity = Flow Discharge/Total drawdown at the well. To calculate Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship, you need Flow Discharge (Qf) & Total drawdown at the well (sw). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Flow Discharge & Total drawdown at the well and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
How many ways are there to calculate Specific Capacity?
In this formula, Specific Capacity uses Flow Discharge & Total drawdown at the well. We can use 2 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -
  • Specific Capacity = 1/((1/4*pi*Transmissivity)*(ln(2.25*Transmissivity*Time from start of pump/(Radius of the Pumping Well^2)*Storage Coefficient))+Well Constant C2*Flow Discharge)
  • Specific Capacity = Proportionality Constant/Area of the Well
