Variables Used

Total Drawdown in Well - (Measured in Meter) - Total Drawdown in Well is defined as the reduction in hydraulic head observed at a well in an aquifer, typically due to pumping a well as part of an aquifer test or well test.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the flow rate of water that is extracted from or injected into a well.
Coefficient of Permeability in Well Hydraulics - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Coefficient of Permeability in Well Hydraulics of soil in well hydraulics describes how easily a liquid will move through the soil.
Aquifer Thickness During Pumping - (Measured in Meter) - Aquifer Thickness During Pumping is the thickness of aquifer during pumping stage.

Radius of Well - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of Well is defined as the distance from center of well to its outer boundary.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge: 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Permeability in Well Hydraulics: 10 Centimeter per Second --> 0.1 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Aquifer Thickness During Pumping: 2.36 Meter --> 2.36 Meter No Conversion Required
Radius of Influence: 8.6 Meter --> 8.6 Meter No Conversion Required
Radius of Well: 7.5 Meter --> 7.5 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

S_tw = Q/((2*pi*K_WH*b_p)/(log((R_w/r),e))) --> 1.01/((2*pi*0.1*2.36)/(log((8.6/7.5),e)))

Evaluating ... ...

S_tw = 4.97686156005049

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.97686156005049 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4.97686156005049 ≈ 4.976862 Meter <-- Total Drawdown in Well
