The following article will guide you about how does water flow into a well. Flow into a Well: The principle objective of ground water studies is to determine how much ground water can be safely withdrawn perennially from the aquifers in the area under study. This determination involves: (i) Transmissibility and storage coefficients of the aquifers. (ii) The lateral extent [...]
In this article we will discuss about how to construct multiple well systems. If there are a number of pumping wells in a given well field, the drawdown at any point is the sum of the drawdowns due to each pumping well, for which the distance of the point from each well and the discharge of each well should be [...]
The following tests may be performed to get an idea of the probable yield of the well: 1. Pumping Test: The water level is depressed to an amount equal to the safe working head for the subsoil. Then the water level is kept constant by making the pumping rate equal to the percolation into the well. The quantity of water [...]
