Discharge given Specific Capacity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Discharge = Specific Capacity*Total Drawdown
Q = S_c*s_t
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Specific Capacity - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - The Specific Capacity refers to the measure used in hydrogeology to evaluate the efficiency of a well, defined as the amount of water a well can produce per unit of drawdown.
Total Drawdown - (Measured in Meter) - The Total Drawdown in Well refers to the reduction in water level from the original, static level to the level during pumping.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Specific Capacity: 0.037 Square Meter per Second --> 0.037 Square Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Total Drawdown: 28 Meter --> 28 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q = S_c*s_t --> 0.037*28

Evaluating ... ...

Q = 1.036

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.036 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.036 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Discharge

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Discharge?

The amount of fluid passing a section of a stream in unit time is called the discharge. If v is the mean velocity and A is the cross sectional area, the discharge Q is defined by Q = Av which is known as volume flow rate.

How to Calculate Discharge given Specific Capacity?

Discharge given Specific Capacity calculator uses Discharge = Specific Capacity*Total Drawdown to calculate the Discharge, The Discharge given Specific Capacity formula is defined as the measure of the rate of flow of fluid, typically water, from a well or borehole, which is dependent on the specific capacity of the well and the drawdown of the water level. Discharge is denoted by Q symbol.

How to calculate Discharge given Specific Capacity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Discharge given Specific Capacity, enter Specific Capacity (S_c) & Total Drawdown (s_t) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Discharge given Specific Capacity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.036 = 0.037*28.

FAQ

What is Discharge given Specific Capacity?

The Discharge given Specific Capacity formula is defined as the measure of the rate of flow of fluid, typically water, from a well or borehole, which is dependent on the specific capacity of the well and the drawdown of the water level and is represented as Q = S_c*s_t or Discharge = Specific Capacity*Total Drawdown. The Specific Capacity refers to the measure used in hydrogeology to evaluate the efficiency of a well, defined as the amount of water a well can produce per unit of drawdown & The Total Drawdown in Well refers to the reduction in water level from the original, static level to the level during pumping.

How to calculate Discharge given Specific Capacity?

The Discharge given Specific Capacity formula is defined as the measure of the rate of flow of fluid, typically water, from a well or borehole, which is dependent on the specific capacity of the well and the drawdown of the water level is calculated using Discharge = Specific Capacity*Total Drawdown. To calculate Discharge given Specific Capacity, you need Specific Capacity (S_c) & Total Drawdown (s_t). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Specific Capacity & Total Drawdown and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
