In a constant head permeability test in the laboratory as shown in Figure Q2(e), the data is recorded in Table Q2(b). The void ratio of the soil specimen is 0.46. Determine; (i) Hydraulic conductivity, k, of the soil in cm/sec. (ii) Discharge velocity in cm/sec.
In a falling head permeameter, the sample used is 25 cm long having a cross-sectional area of 24 cm2. The cross-sectional area of the standpipe is 2 cm2. The sample of soil is made of three layers perpendicular to the direction of the flow. The thickness of the top layer is 8 cm and has a value of k1 = 4 x 10-4 cm/sec, the second layer of thickness 10 cm has k2 = 6 x 10-4 cm/sec, and the bottom layer of thickness 7 cm has k3 = 8 x 10-4 cm/sec. Calculate the time required for a drop of head from 25 to 12 cm. ( in minutes).
Problem (2) The following data are for a variable head permeability test: Area of soil specimen=1200mm? Length of the soil specimen = 150mm Area of the standpipe = 1.3cm² At time t=0, head difference = 750mm At time t=2min, head difference = 500mm 2 %3D a) Find the hydraulic conductivity of the soil in cm/min.
A cylindrical soil sample with length = 15cm and diameter = 4cm was taken from a site where a groundwater contamination piume was found. The sample was tested in the lab to determine its hydraulic conductivity. A hydraulic gradient of 0.05 was applied across the sample, and a flow rate of 0.025 cm³/sec was measured. Calculate the hydraulic conductivity of the soil sample using Darcy's law.
