Problem 3.5 A well of diameter 0.3 m is constructed to the full depth of an unconfined aquifer of thickness of 150 m. The water table is 10 m below the ground surface. A pumping test of 12 m'/hour has resulted a drawdown of 10 m. Assuming ro = 400 m; calculate the coefficient of permeability of the aquifer. If the flow rate increases to 18 m'/hour, and in the absence of any other data, what will be the best estimate for the drawdown in the well?

A drainage basin has a area of 7322 km2. The average annual precipitation for this area is 909 mm. The average surface water flow at the outlet of the catchment is 21.4 x 108 m3/year and the average groundwater flow out of the basin is 94.6 mm/year. Assume trailing zeros are significant if present. Determine the annual average evaporation in mm/year. (give your answer to one decimal place)
Problem 1. Consider a drainage system that consists of horizontal drains located at an elevation ho above the base of an unconfined aquifer of thickness b 10 m (see Figure 1). The recharge rate is r = 100 mm/yr, and the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer is K = 1 m/d. The design condition of the drainage system is to avoid ponding at the ground surface. You can ignore the vadose zone for this problem. 1. Obtain the relation between the half-distance between drains, L, and the elevation of the drains, ho. Plot this function over the range of feasible lengths. 2. The cost of each individual drain can be split as the cost of the material (fixed) and the cost of installation (which is assumed to be proportional to the depth b – ho). If the fixed cost is $500 and the installation cost is $100 per meter of aquifer length per meter of depth, can you build a drainage system for less than $1 per meter of aquifer length? If so, what depth ho and spacing 2L would you choose? K= 1 m/day 2L = r…
