A well penetrates an unconfined aquifer, with undisturbed water level (ho) equal to 21m. After pumping the well at a constant rate of Q = 0.07 m/s, the steady-state drawdown at distances of 45 m and 110 m from the well are 3 m and 1 m. respectively. Assume the void ratio as 0.2. Compute the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer. 215.0 m/day what is the porosity 0.16 find the darcy velocity in m/day 69.4 m/day
A 400 mm diameter test well penetrates 27 m below the static water table. After 24 hours of pumping at 75 liters/sec, the water level in an observation well at a distance of 100 m from the test well is lowered 0.35 m. The other observation well at a distance of 40 m from the test well has a drawdown of 0.97 m. Compute the transmissibility of the aquifer in m?/day.

Yuri wants to determine the permeability of an aquifer. The aquifer has a test well 300-mm in diameter with two observation wells. A pumping test was conducted for 24 hours with the discharge being held constant at 5,896.3 m^3/day. The first one, 82.87 meters from the test well, has a draw-down of 0.86 meters. The second one, 44 meters from the test well, has a draw-down of 1.21 meters.The static water table penetrates the well to a depth of 28 meters. Determine the radius of influence of the aquifer in meters. Round off to three decimal places.
A well of diameter 15 cm pumps at a steady rate of 265 L/min. It is located 15.2 m from a lake shore that is straight. The well and the lake penetrate the same homogeneous isotropic confined aquifer of hydraulic conductivity 2 m/day. At the steady state the influence of a well pumping at the above rate on the aquifer is upto a distance of 50 m from the well. Determine the drop in water level in the well assuming that without the well pumping, the head at the well is essentially the same as the head in the lake
