Transmissivity of aquifer when equivalent permeability is considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Transmissivity = Equivalent Permeability*Aquifer Thickness
τ = Ke*b
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Transmissivity - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - Transmissivity describes the ability of the to transmit groundwater throughout its entire saturated thickness.
Equivalent Permeability - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Equivalent Permeability is defined when the flow the flow is parallel to stratification.
Aquifer Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - Aquifer Thickness (at Midpoint between Equipotential lines) or otherwise is the thickness of aquifer in which the pore spaces of rock forming the aquifer may or may not be with water.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Equivalent Permeability: 4 Centimeter per Second --> 0.04 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Aquifer Thickness: 15 Meter --> 15 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
τ = Ke*b --> 0.04*15
Evaluating ... ...
τ = 0.6
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.6 Square Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.6 Square Meter per Second <-- Transmissivity
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
