A groundwater well with produces 80 m/hr. and has a hydraulic conductivity of 20 m/d. Calculate
the following:
a. The length of the screen
b. The diameter of the delivery pipe.
c. The velocity head and the friction losses in the delivery pipe.
d. What is the required power of the pump if the abstraction efficiency was 70%?
Assume the following:
The percentage of the opening in the screen is 17%, the entrance velocity is 1.55 cm/sec, the
diameter of the screen is 30 cm, water velocity in the tube is 2.2 m/sec. Assume any missing data.
