Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Specific Yield = (Possible Recharge+Gross Water Draft)/(Water Level Fluctuation*Watershed Area)
S_Y = (R+D_G)/(h*A)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Specific Yield - The Specific Yield refers to the volume of water that a saturated rock or soil will yield due to gravity drainage to the total volume of the rock or soil.
Possible Recharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Possible Recharge refers to the gross recharge minus the natural recharge of the area.
Gross Water Draft - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Gross Water Draft refers to the total volume of water extracted or utilized from a catchment area.
Water Level Fluctuation - (Measured in Meter) - The Water Level Fluctuation refers to the irregular rising and falling in number or amount of water during monsoon season.
Watershed Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Watershed Area refers to the isolated area with a well demarcated boundary line, draining the rainwater to a single outlet.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Possible Recharge: 70 Cubic Meter per Second --> 70 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Gross Water Draft: 10 Cubic Meter per Second --> 10 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Water Level Fluctuation: 5 Meter --> 5 Meter No Conversion Required
Watershed Area: 20 Square Meter --> 20 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

S_Y = (R+D_G)/(h*A) --> (70+10)/(5*20)

Evaluating ... ...

S_Y = 0.8

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.8 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.8 <-- Specific Yield

What is Recharge in Hydrology?

Groundwater Recharge or deep drainage or deep percolation is a hydrologic process, where water moves downward from surface water to groundwater. Recharge is the primary method through which water enters an aquifer.

How to Calculate Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered?

Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered calculator uses Specific Yield = (Possible Recharge+Gross Water Draft)/(Water Level Fluctuation*Watershed Area) to calculate the Specific Yield, The Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered formula is defined as the volume of water released from storage by an unconfined aquifer per unit surface area of aquifer per unit decline of the water table. Specific Yield is denoted by S_Y symbol.

How to calculate Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered, enter Possible Recharge (R), Gross Water Draft (D_G), Water Level Fluctuation (h) & Watershed Area (A) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.8 = (70+10)/(5*20).

FAQ

What is Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered?

The Specific Yield when Possible Recharge and Gross Water Draft is Considered formula is defined as the volume of water released from storage by an unconfined aquifer per unit surface area of aquifer per unit decline of the water table and is represented as S_Y = (R+D_G)/(h*A) or Specific Yield = (Possible Recharge+Gross Water Draft)/(Water Level Fluctuation*Watershed Area). The Possible Recharge refers to the gross recharge minus the natural recharge of the area, The Gross Water Draft refers to the total volume of water extracted or utilized from a catchment area, The Water Level Fluctuation refers to the irregular rising and falling in number or amount of water during monsoon season & The Watershed Area refers to the isolated area with a well demarcated boundary line, draining the rainwater to a single outlet.
