Determine the seepage velocity of water through aquifer

Reference no: EM13306918

An aquifer is 2045 m wide and 28m tall. Its hydraulic gradient is 0.05 and hydraulic conductivity is 145 m/day.

a) Calculate Darcy's velocity of the groundowater as well as the amount of water that passes through the aquifer each day.

b) for the same aquifer, determine the seepage velocity of water through aquifer if the effective porosity is 32%.
