Question

The time – drawdown data for a confined aquifer is given below for a discharge of 1500 gpm. The distance of the observation well is 300 ft.

here, T=52849.388 ft^2/day and S=0.000568

A.Show that the basic criteria for using Cooper-Jacob approximation is satisfied. 

B.For the computed T and S values, what is the limiting value of time ‘t’ that satisfies the basic criteria of well function parameter ‘u’?
