Discharge Entering Drain per Unit Length of Drain Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Discharge per unit Length of the Drain = 2*(Natural Recharge*(Length between Tile Drain/2))
q_d = 2*(R*(L/2))
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Discharge per unit Length of the Drain - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Discharge per unit Length of the Drain refers to the amount of water entering a drain per unit length.
Natural Recharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Natural Recharge is a process by which groundwater is replenished naturally when precipitation infiltrates the ground, moving through the soil and rock layers until it reaches the water table.
Length between Tile Drain - (Measured in Meter) - The Length between Tile Drain refers to the approximate expression to the water table profile on a horizontal impervious boundary.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Natural Recharge: 16 Cubic Meter per Second --> 16 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Length between Tile Drain: 6 Meter --> 6 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

q_d = 2*(R*(L/2)) --> 2*(16*(6/2))

Evaluating ... ...

q_d = 96

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

96 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

96 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Discharge per unit Length of the Drain

Equation of Head for Unconfined Aquifer on Horizontal Impervious Base

LaTeX Go Water Table Profile = sqrt(((-Natural Recharge*Flow in 'x' Direction^2)/Coefficient of Permeability)-(((Piezometric Head at Upstream End^2-Piezometric Head at Downstream End^2-((Natural Recharge*Length between Upstream and Downstream^2)/Coefficient of Permeability))/Length between Upstream and Downstream)*Flow in 'x' Direction)+Piezometric Head at Upstream End^2)

Discharge per Unit Width of Aquifer at any Location x

LaTeX Go Discharge of Aquifer at any Location x = Natural Recharge*(Flow in 'x' Direction-(Length between Upstream and Downstream/2))+(Coefficient of Permeability/2*Length between Upstream and Downstream)*(Piezometric Head at Upstream End^2-Piezometric Head at Downstream End^2)

Discharge at Downstream Water Body of Catchment

LaTeX Go Discharge at Downstream Side = ((Natural Recharge*Length between Upstream and Downstream)/2)+((Coefficient of Permeability/(2*Length between Upstream and Downstream))*(Piezometric Head at Upstream End^2-Piezometric Head at Downstream End^2))

Equation for Water Divide

LaTeX Go Water Divide = (Length between Upstream and Downstream/2)-(Coefficient of Permeability/Natural Recharge)*((Piezometric Head at Upstream End^2-Piezometric Head at Downstream End^2)/2*Length between Upstream and Downstream)

Discharge Entering Drain per Unit Length of Drain Formula

LaTeX Go

Discharge per unit Length of the Drain = 2*(Natural Recharge*(Length between Tile Drain/2))
q_d = 2*(R*(L/2))

What is Recharge?

Recharge is the primary method through which water enters an aquifer. This process usually occurs in the vadose zone below plant roots and, is often expressed as a flux to the water table surface. Groundwater recharge also encompasses water moving away from the water table farther into the saturated zone.

How to Calculate Discharge Entering Drain per Unit Length of Drain?

Discharge Entering Drain per Unit Length of Drain calculator uses Discharge per unit Length of the Drain = 2*(Natural Recharge*(Length between Tile Drain/2)) to calculate the Discharge per unit Length of the Drain, The Discharge Entering Drain per Unit Length of Drain formula is defined as the volumetric flow rate of water that is transported per unit length of the drain. Discharge per unit Length of the Drain is denoted by q_d symbol.

How to calculate Discharge Entering Drain per Unit Length of Drain using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Discharge Entering Drain per Unit Length of Drain, enter Natural Recharge (R) & Length between Tile Drain (L) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Discharge Entering Drain per Unit Length of Drain calculation can be explained with given input values -> 96 = 2*(16*(6/2)).
