Specific Capacity and Discharge into Well Relationship Formula Elements

Variables
Specific Capacity
The Specific Capacity is referred as amount of water furnished under a standard unit head.
Symbol: Ks
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Flow Discharge
The Flow Discharge refers to the volume of water passing through a particular cross-section of a river or stream per unit of time. It is typically measured in (m³/s) or cubic feet per second (cfs).
Symbol: Qf
Measurement: Volumetric Flow RateUnit: m³/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Total drawdown at the well
Total drawdown at the well is the reduction in hydraulic head observed at a well in an aquifer.
Symbol: sw
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
