Multilayered systems

See section Multilayered systems (up to 5 pumping aquifers).

Parameters of system are set in the table. The figure shows an example of cross-section with pumping and observation wells.

 

"Multilayered system" dialog box.

 

Explanatory table

Table

Thickness (m), hydraulic conductivity (m/d) and storage coefficient (dimensionless) of aquifers and aquitards.

Pumping rate for aquifers. A zero pumping rate for aquifer implies the absence of well screen in this interval.

Rows white color – aquifers. Rows brick color  – aqutards.

Tooltips:

"Index" column – leaky factor (m) for aquifer (if pumping rate for aquifer more zero)

"m" column – total thickness from top of system

"k" column – transmissivity (m2/d) and hydraulic diffusivity (m2/d) of aquifer or aquitard

"S" column – specific storage (1/m) of aquifer or aquitard

"Configurator" frame

Number of aquifers (form 1 to 5) and boundary conditions on the top and the bottom of system


"t, day" text box

Time for which drawdown is calculated

"r, m" text box

Horizontal Distance from the pumping well to an observation well

"z, m" text box

Vertical distance form top of aquitard to observation point in this aquitard (from 0 m to thickness of aquitard)

"si, m" or "si', m"  text box

This field shows calculated drawdown in the selected aquifer or aquitard

List

Select the layer (aquifer or aquitard) in which calculated drawdown

"Boundaries" option

Setting boundary conditions


"I", "II" options at the top of the frame "Boundary conditions"

Semi-infinite system with boundary condition I kind or II kind

"I - I", "II - II", "I - II" options

Two boundaries. For strip, wedge-shaped and U-shaped system. For U-shaped system it is parallel boundaries

"Lp, m" text box

"I", "II" options near with "U-shaped" option

Boundary conditions on the third boundary for U-shaped system

"Lp', m" text box

Horizontal distance from observation well to the second boundary of wedge-shaped system or the third boundary of U-shaped system. For wedge-shaped system it is distance calculated from r, Lw, Lwc и Lw'
