Question- Three tube wells of 25 cm, diameter each are located at the three vertices of an equilateral triangle of side 100 m. Each tube well penetrates fully in a confined aquifer of thickness 25 m. Assume the radius of influence for these wells and the coefficient of permeability of the aquifer as 300 m and 40 m/day respectively. Calculate the discharge when only one well is pumping with a drawdown of 3 m. (i) (ii) (iii) What will be the percent change in discharge of this well if all the three wells were to pump such that the drawdown is 3 m in all the wells?
