Drawdown around a Partially Penetrating Well
Publication: Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume 127, Issue 1
Abstract
Equations of unsteady drawdown around a well partially screened in and steadily discharging from an artesian aquifer of uniform thickness and uniform hydraulic properties are developed. The discharge is supplied by the reduction of storage through expansion of water and the concomitant compression of the aquifer. The solutions are put in forms amenable to relatively simple computation. The results are compared with that of the case of complete penetration. Application of the theory to analysis of aquifer tests will be given in a subsequent paper.
