What is Discharge due to Spherical Flow in Well?

Discharge due to spherical flow in a well occurs when water moves radially towards the well in a three-dimensional pattern, typical in confined aquifers or near partially penetrating wells. It is influenced by factors like aquifer properties, well radius, drawdown, and the radius of influence. The discharge rate is determined using equations that account for the changing cross-sectional area of flow and the variation in hydraulic gradient with distance from the well. This flow pattern results in a more complex relationship between discharge and drawdown compared to linear or radial flow.
