Specific Capacity per unit Well Area for Discharge from Open Well Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Specific Capacity = Flow Discharge/(Area of the Well*Depression Head)
K_s = Q_f/(A*H)
This formula uses 4 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.
Area of the Well - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of the Well is denoted by A symbol.
Depression Head - (Measured in Meter) - Depression Head is the height of the bottom of a well above the datum.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flow Discharge: 30 Cubic Meter per Second --> 30 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Area of the Well: 20 Square Meter --> 20 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Depression Head: 7 Meter --> 7 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K_s = Q_f/(A*H) --> 30/(20*7)

Evaluating ... ...

K_s = 0.214285714285714

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.214285714285714 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.214285714285714 ≈ 0.214286 <-- Specific Capacity

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

Specific Capacity per unit Well Area for Discharge from Open Well Formula

Specific Capacity = Flow Discharge/(Area of the Well*Depression Head)
K_s = Q_f/(A*H)
