FUNDAMENTALS OF GEOTECHNICAL ANALYSIS A fine sand sample is placed into a permeameter that supplies a constant head of 100 cm ofwater. Water flows through the sample area of 20 cm2, and its length of 25 cm. If 850 ml of water is collected in 80 seconds, what is the hydraulic conductivity, kHYD in cm/s? a) Calculate the flow rate in cm3/s if the head is increased to 140 cm.

← Darcy' Law A sand sample of 35 m² cross sectional area and 20 cm long was tested in a constant head permeameter. Under a head of 60 km, the discharge was 120 ml in 6 min. The dry unit weight of sand used for the test was 1120 g. and GS = 2.68 Take Sw = 1 g/ cm³ The hydraulic conductivity (in cm/sec) is × 10-³ X
An unconfined aquifer is 10 m thick and is being pumped so that one observation well placed at a distance 76 m shows a drawdown of 0.5 m. On the opposite side of the extraction well is another observation well 100 m from the extraction well, shows a drawdown of 0.3 m. Assume the coefficient of permeability of 50 m/day. a.) What is the discharge f the extraction well? b.) Suppose the well at 100 m from the extraction well is now pumped. Show with a sketch what this will do to the drawdown. c.) Suppose the aquifer sits on an aquaclude that has a slope of 1/100. Show with a sketch what this will do to the drawdown.
Calculate the effective hydraulic conductivity for flow parallel and perpendicular to layering. Please show and explain the difference in values.
