Transmissivity of Aquifer when Equivalent Permeability is Considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Transmissivity = Equivalent Permeability*Aquifer Thickness
τ = K_e*b
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Transmissivity - (Measured in Square Meter per Second) - The Transmissivity refers to the measure of how much water can be transmitted horizontally through an aquifer is the product of the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer and its saturated thickness.
Equivalent Permeability - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Equivalent Permeability is referred as when the flow is parallel to stratification.
Aquifer Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - The Aquifer Thickness is referred as vertical distance between the top and bottom boundaries of an aquifer, typically measured in feet or meters.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Equivalent Permeability: 4 Centimeter per Second --> 0.04 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Aquifer Thickness: 29 Meter --> 29 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

τ = K_e*b --> 0.04*29

Evaluating ... ...

τ = 1.16

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.16 Square Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.16 Square Meter per Second <-- Transmissivity

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
