Example #1: Unconfined flow
A 30-cm diameter well completely penetrates an unconfined aquifer of
saturated depth 40 m. After a long period of pumping at a steady rate
of 1500 lpm, the drawdown in two observation wells 25 and 75 m from
the pumping well were found to be 3.5 and 2.0 m respectively.
Determine the transmissivity of the aquifer in square meters per
second. What is the drawdown at the pumping well in meters?

Example #2: Confined flow
A 30-cm diameter well completely penetrates a confined aquifer of
permeability 45 m/day. The length of the strainer is 20 m. Under steady
state of pumping the drawdown at the well was found to be 3.0 m and
the radius of influence was 300 m. Calculate the discharge in liters per
