A STUDY ON SPECIFIC CAPACITY AND COST OF WELL IN A MULTI-AQUIFER SYSTEM

Abstract

Ground water prospecting and exploration is needed in first instance to determine whether the water occurs under condition that would permit its utilization through wells or tube wells. The specific capacity is an important parameter which enables to predict, select type of pumps, estimate the cost of pumping. Through the specific capacity of well, it is possible to determine the transmissivity and storage coefficient of an aquifer. Under field condition the aquifer rarely conforms to concept of one aquifer system. Often aquifer pumped is part of a complex aquifer system. Clesis provides an analysis in respect of dependable yield of well and economic cost of construction of wellA vn a multi-aquifer system. Using the analysis it is possible to predict the economical depth of ground water exploitation...
