Equation for Residual Drawdown Formula Elements

Variables
Constants
Residual Drawdown
Residual Drawdown is the change in groundwater level due to an applied stress after the cessation of the pumping.
Symbol: s'
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Discharge
The Discharge refers to the volumetric flow rate of water that is transported through a given cross-sectional area. It includes any suspended solids, dissolved chemicals, or biologic material.
Symbol: Q
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: m³/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Transmissibility
Transmissibility is most simply defined as the effective hydraulic conductivity of an aquifer or other water-bearing unit multiplied by the thickness of that unit.
Symbol: T
Measurement: Kinematic ViscosityUnit: m²/s
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Well Function of u
Well Function of u is the data plot of drawdown versus time (or drawdown versus t/rz) is matched to the type curve of W(u) versus 1/u.
Symbol: Wu
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Well Function after the Cessation of Pumping
Well Function after the Cessation of Pumping is the data plot of drawdown versus time easily calculates the exponential integral.
