Change in Radial Distance Formula Elements

Variables
Change in Radial Distance
Change in Radial Distance is the variation in distance from a pumping well to a specific point in an aquifer over time.
Symbol: dr
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Coefficient of Permeability
Coefficient of Permeability is the measure of the ability of a porous material (such as soil or rock) to transmit fluids through it. It quantifies how easily water can flow through the material.
Symbol: K
Measurement: SpeedUnit: cm/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Change in Piezometric Head
Change in Piezometric Head is the difference in hydraulic head between two points within an aquifer or groundwater system.
Symbol: dh
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Velocity of Flow at Radial Distance
Velocity of Flow at Radial Distance is the speed at which groundwater moves through a porous medium at a specific radial distance from a well or other point of interest.
Symbol: Vr
Measurement: SpeedUnit: cm/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
