Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A well pumps at 0.015 m³/s, and the drawdown is observed as 4 meters in 2 days at a distance of 25 meters. Calculate the transmissibility using the Theis Equation.

💡 Hint: Use the formula for W(u) and calculate the values stepwise.

Question 2

During a field study, a monitored well shows an initial static water level of 10m. After 12 hours of pumping, the level drops to 7m. The transmissibility calculated is 12 m²/day. What is the well function W(u)?

💡 Hint: Remember to use the drawdown and time in the correct units.
