Question 1: (steady - confined - partially penetrating) A 20-cm diameter well, partially (50 %) penetrates (hp-B/2) confined aquifer of a saturated depth of the horizontal level is 23.4 m and is 29.25 m deep from the surface. Before the discharge, the water level within the well was 3.65 m from the surface. Under steady state pumping rate of 2.5 m³/min, the drawdown of the observation well which is 38.40 m away from the main well is si-3.60 m and the drawdown in the second observation well which is 159 m away from the main well (measured at the same instant) is $2=75cm. Determine the hydraulic conductivity 'K', the transmissivity 'T' and the extra drawdown As at the pumping well.

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.

A confined aquifer with T = 7.0 x 10-3 m2/s and S = 5 x 10-4 is pumped by two wells, 35 m apart. One well is pumped at 7.6 L/s and one at 15.2 L/s. Plot the drawdown h0-h versus distance along a line joining the wells, 4 hours after the start of pumping. Use 5 m increments along the line. How would I go about this question if my initial r1 would equal 0 and and r2 would equal 35m additionally how would I get the pumping rates at each 5 m increments. overall please give a step by step on how I Would go about this question

a) A well for extracting water from a confined aquifer was installed at a site. The top of the confined aquifer was at a depth of 10 m and the bottom was at a depth of 17 m. When the well was first installed the water level rose to 3 m below the ground surface, prior to the installation of any pumps. Observation wells were installed 50 m and 150 m radially out from the centre of the extraction well. i) At a pumping rate of 3000 litres/hour the water levels in the observation wells were 5 m and 4 m below the ground surface, respectively. Calculate the coefficient of permeability of the confined aquifer. ii) Calculate the radius of influence of the extraction well. iii) What is the minimum depth that the observation wells would have to be installed to?

There are two identical groundwater pump facilities that is operating 6 kilometers apart. The hydraulic conductivity is 40m/day. Each pump well structure has a tube diameter of 75cm. The original water table has an elevation of 110 m. However, it is maintained that the maximum drawdown (at the tube) is 18m. The water table will not change at the midpoint between the two pump wells. Determine the drawdown at a point 2 km from the pump.

Q2. A pumping tests are carried out using testing well (pumping well for testing only) and two observational wells. The observation wells were installed at 10 and 30.5 m, respectively, from the testing well. In both wells, the initial piezometric head was 36.2 m. The pumping proceeded at a rate of 0.19 m³/s. After few days the piezometric head stabilized at 30.7 m and 32.9 m in the first and second observational wells, respectively. Determine: a. Transmissivity of the aquifer. b. The well radius of influence. c. The maximum drawdown if the well radius is 0.47 m.
Exercise 4-1 (Problem ?? pp. ??) The Theis (Eqn. 5.12, p. 162) and Cooper-Jacob (Eqn. 5.54 p. 180) equations can both be used to estimate drawdown for confined aquifer transient problems.
