Transmissivity given Storage Coefficient from Distance Drawdown Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Transmissivity = (Storage Coefficient*Distance from Pumping Well to Point Intersection^2)/(2.25*Total Drawdown)
T = (S*r_o^2)/(2.25*s_t)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Transmissivity - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - Transmissivity is the rate at which groundwater flows horizontally through an aquifer or the degree to which a medium allows something, in particular electromagnetic radiation, to pass through it.
Storage Coefficient - The Storage Coefficient is referred as volume of water released from storage per unit decline in hydraulic head in the aquifer, per unit area of the aquifer.
Distance from Pumping Well to Point Intersection - (Measured in Meter) - The Distance from Pumping Well to Point Intersection is referred as the straight line which intersects the zero-drawdown line.
Total Drawdown - (Measured in Meter) - The Total Drawdown is referred as 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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Storage Coefficient: 0.0545 --> No Conversion Required
Distance from Pumping Well to Point Intersection: 4 Meter --> 4 Meter No Conversion Required
Total Drawdown: 0.035 Meter --> 0.035 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T = (S*r_o^2)/(2.25*s_t) --> (0.0545*4^2)/(2.25*0.035)

Evaluating ... ...
