A large industry is concerned that the radius of influence of their production well extends beyond their property boundaries. Their 16-in. radius well draws water from a confined aquifer at the rate of 1570 gal/min (gpm). The confined aquifer is 100 ft thick with a piezometric surface (prior to pumping) that is 350 ft above the bottom of the aquifer. The drawdown at the well is 100 ft. Determine the radius of influence if the aquifer's hydraulic conductivity is 4.01x10+ ft/s.

Engineering fluid … The crest of a high, broad-crested weir has an elevation of 100 m. If the weir is 10 m long and the discharge of water over the weir is 25 m3 ⁄ s, what is the water-surface elevation in the reservoir upstream?
A production well was discharged and tested through an atmospheric silencer at sea level (1 bar absolute) using a lip pipe with a diameter of 24.5 cm and a weir box with a 90 ° V-notch weir. The well was flowing at a wellhead pressure of 7 bar gauge and the measured lip pipe pressure and weir height were 3 bar gauge and 0.11 m, respectively. Calculate the discharge enthalpy and total mass flow of the well.

This is for hydrology. How would I calulate the time it would take for the plume to reach the next well in it's path? Plume is moving in a southeast direction with with the next well at a distance of 61.2m away with a hydraulic gradient of 0.15m between the two wells. Here is the other information I have. Thank You A confined aquifer with the top of the aquifer about 13.5 m below the surface. The aquifer is 5.5 m thick and is bounded by impervious rock below (forming the datum for the hydraulic head measurements) and a clay aquitard above. Analysis of the aquifer material reveals a bulk density of 1.75 g/cm3, porosity of 0.35 and 0.55% organic carbon. After a pumping test, you calculate that the transmissivity of the aquifer is 0.00025 m2/s and the storativity is 0.000055. What monitoring well(s) would you next expect to see toluene found in and in approximately how long?
Estimate the Q that produced a drawdown in a 1 ft diameter well of 5 feet above the bottom of a pressurized aquifer with a 35 ft thickness and a head in a monitoring well 55 ft away 25 ft above the bottom of the aquifer in a clean course sand aquifer with K ~ 3*10^(-3) ft/sec.
With an observation well situated is 69.7 ft away from the pumping well (which is pumping at the rate of 305 gal/min). The aquifer is confined, and the depth has been measured from well logs and is 150 ft. please show using this data how to calculate transmissivity (T), the hydraulic conductivity (K) and Storativity (S) for the aquifer.

2. You're designing a stilling basin and you need to know the minimum length of that basin and also how much energy loss will be achieved before flow is released into the downstream channel. Given the basin width is 10-feet, the flow rate is 240 CFS, the upstream froude number is found from hydraulic modeling to be 4.0. Solve the following: • Minimum length of the stilling basin. • Energy loss within the stilling basin (Calculate both energy loss in feet and in tons). • The depth of water being released outside of the stilling basin. • The Froude Number being released from the Stilling Basin. • Look at USBR Design of Small Dams and Write a paragraph (4-5 sentences) of the recommended stilling basin you would propose for the hydraulic scenario.
