Depression Head given Discharge Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depression Height = (Discharge in Well/(Cross-Sectional Area of Well*Percolation Intensity Coefficient))
H = (Q/(A_csw*C))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Depression Height - (Measured in Meter) - The Depression Height is defined as height of the bottom of a well above the datum.
Discharge in Well - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge in Well is the rate of flow of a liquid in well.
Cross-Sectional Area of Well - (Measured in Square Meter) - Cross-Sectional Area of Well is the the surface area of the interior opening of the well.
Percolation Intensity Coefficient - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Percolation Intensity Coefficient is the constant of the formation around the well.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge in Well: 0.99 Cubic Meter per Second --> 0.99 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Cross-Sectional Area of Well: 13 Square Meter --> 13 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Percolation Intensity Coefficient: 0.01 Meter per Second --> 0.01 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H = (Q/(A_csw*C)) --> (0.99/(13*0.01))

Evaluating ... ...

H = 7.61538461538461

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

7.61538461538461 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

7.61538461538461 ≈ 7.615385 Meter <-- Depression Height

What is Discharge?

Discharge in the context of wells, rivers, or any hydraulic system refers to the volume of water flowing out of a particular source over a given period of time. It’s often used to describe the amount of water being produced or released from a well, river, or drainage system. Discharge is a critical factor in evaluating the capacity of a well or river to provide water. For example, higher discharge rates in a well indicate higher water yield, which is important for assessing its productivity and sustainability.
