Do problem # 14. from the back of Chapter 3 in your text (duplicated below):
Hint: use eq. # 3.32; show all your work: A confined aquifer has a specific storage
(Ss) of 8.810-6m-1 and a porosity of 0.33. The compressibility of water () is
4.610-10m2N. What is the compressibility of the aquifer skeleton ()?
(Eqn.3-32)
]=1000kgm3,(g)=[9.80ms2[:=[Ss-w]n}
Find the Total Energy per unit mass (Etm) using the Bernoulli equation given the
following:
g (acceleration due to gravity)=9.80ms2
P (the Fluid Pressure)=1500Nm2
z (the distance above a reference elevation)=0.75m
(rho, the fluid density)=1.02103kgm3
v(the fluid velocity)=10-6ms
The Bernoulli equation is:
Etm=(Pp)+(gz)+(v22)
Find (A) the Transmissivity (T) by using the Theim Equation;
and (B) the Hydraulic Conductivity (K): given the following:
Q= pumping rate =25,000ft3d
T={Q2(h2-h1)}ln(r2r1)
b= thickness =24ft
r1=125ft,r2=315ft
h1=273ft,h2=291ft
