Distance from pumping well to observation well Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Distance from Pumping Well = sqrt((2.25*Transmissivity*Time at the Point of Intersection)/Storage Coefficient)
r = sqrt((2.25*τ*t_o)/S)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Distance from Pumping Well - (Measured in Meter) - Distance from Pumping Well to the point where drawdown occurs.
Transmissivity - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - The Transmissivity refers to the measure of how much water can be transmitted horizontally through an aquifer is the product of the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer and its saturated thickness.
Time at the Point of Intersection - (Measured in Minute) - Time at the Point of Intersection between Straight Line and Zero-drawdown Line.
Storage Coefficient - Storage Coefficient is the volume of water released from storage per unit decline in hydraulic head in the aquifer, per unit area of the aquifer.
