A 30 cm well penetrates 45 m below the static water table. After a long period of pumping at a rate of 1200 lpm, the drawdown in the wells 20 m and 45 m from the pumped well is found to be 3.8 and 2.4 m respectively. Determine the transmissivity (=K*aquifer width) of the aquifer. What is the drawdown in the pumped well?

A well 12 in dimeter penetrates 108 ft below the static water table. After a long period of pumping at a rate of 350 gpm, the drawdowns in wells 57 ft and 148 ft from the pumped well were found to be 12 ft and 7.4 ft respectively. What is the transmissivity of the aquifer? What is the approximate drawdown in the pumped well?

Two wells are drilled 50 m apart in an aquifer which has K = 0.05 cm /s. The original height of the phreatic surface above the aquiclude is 12.2 m. The wells are pumped at a rate of 10 L/s. It is estimated that the effect of the pumping extends a distance of 600 m from the center of the well group. Determine the shape of the drawdown curve. The well diameters are 0.5 m.
