How to Measure Well Losses? | Geography
Article shared by :
The ultimate drawdown in a well measured at the designed rate Q of continuous pumping for a given period is different from the theoretical drawdown due to well losses. The total drawdown sw is made up of: (i) Head loss resulting from laminar flow in the formation (formation loss), (ii) Head loss resulting from the […]
Flow of Water into Cavity Wells | Geography

If a relatively thin impervious formation of a stiff clay layer is encountered at a shallow depth underlain by an extensive thick confined alluvial aquifer, then it is an excellent location for a cavity well. A hole is drilled using the hand boring set, and casing pipe is lowered to rest firmly on the stiff […]
