The non-equilibrium equation can be used to determine the storage coefficient and transmissivity of confined aquifers. These aquifer constants are useful in the design of tubewells and for studying groundwater movement. Several approximate solutions have been developed for the purpose. Some of them are outlined in the following paragraphs: 1. Theis Method: This is a […]

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 […]
How to Calculate the Specific Capacity of a Well? | Ground Water
Article shared by :
The specific capacity (Q/sw) of a well is the discharge per unit drawdown in the well and is usually expressed in lpm/m. This is a measure of the effectiveness of a well. From Eqs. (4.78), (5.89) and (5.90). Which shows that the specific capacity of a well is not constant but decreases with the increase […]
