pi - Archimedes' constant Value Taken As 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288

Variables Used

Radius of Well - (Measured in Meter) - The radius of well refers to the horizontal distance from the center of the well to its inner wall, essentially the well’s radius.
Discharge by Spherical Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge by Spherical Flow refers to when water moves radially towards the well in a three-dimensional pattern, typical in confined aquifers or near partially penetrating wells.
Coefficient of Permeability - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Coefficient of Permeability refers to the ease with which water can flow through the aquifer's pore spaces.
Initial Piezometric Surface - (Measured in Meter) - The initial piezometric surface refers to the level at which groundwater naturally stands in a confined aquifer before any pumping or external influence.
Depth of Water - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Water is the depth in the well measured above the impermeable layer.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge by Spherical Flow: 0.34 Cubic Meter per Second --> 0.34 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Coefficient of Permeability: 0.105 Centimeter per Second --> 0.00105 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Initial Piezometric Surface: 20 Meter --> 20 Meter No Conversion Required
Depth of Water: 2.44 Meter --> 2.44 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

r = Q_s/(2*pi*K*(H-h_w)) --> 0.34/(2*pi*0.00105*(20-2.44))

Evaluating ... ...
