Such a change in storage is produced by the draining orfilling of pore space and is, therefore, mainly dependent onparticle size, r

For a confined aquifer, thestorage coefficient is equal to the product of specific storageand

29、itions of other terms used in this guide, seeTerminology D653.4. Significance and Use4.1 An aquifer test method is a controlled field experimentmade to determine the approximate hydraulic properties ofwater-bearing material. The hydraulic properties that can bedetermined are specific to the test met

30、hod. The hydraulicproperties that can be determined are also dependent upon theinstrumentation of the field test, the knowledge of the aquifersystem at the field site, and conformance of the hydrogeologicconditions at the field site to the assumptions of the testmethod. Hydraulic conductivity and st

31、orage coefficient of theaquifer are the basic properties determined by most testmethods. Test methods can be designed also to determinevertical and horizontal anisotropy, aquifer discontinuities, ver-tical hydraulic conductivity of confining beds, well efficiency,turbulent flow, and specific storage

32、 and vertical permeability ofconfining beds.5. Procedure5.1 The procedure for selection of an aquifer test method ormethods is primarily based on selection of a test method that iscompatible with the hydrogeology of the proposed test site.Secondarily, the test method is selected on the basis of thet

33、esting conditions specified by the test method, such as themethod of stressing or causing water-level changes in theaquifer and the requirements of a test method for observationsof water level response in the aquifer. The decision tree inTable 1 is designed to assist, first, in selecting test method

34、sapplicable to specific hydrogeologic site characteristics. Sec-ondly, the decision tree will assist in selecting a test method onthe basis of the nature of the stress on the aquifer imposed bythe control well. The decision tree references the sections inthis guide where the test methods are cited.5

35、.2 Pretest-Selection ProceduresAquifer test methods arehighly specific to the assumptions of the analytical solution ofD4043 96 (2010)12the test method. Reliability of determination of hydraulicproperties depends upon conformance of the hydrologic sitecharacteristics to the assumptions of the test m

36、ethod. Aprerequisite for selecting an aquifer test method is knowledgeof the hydrogeology of the test site. A conceptual understand-ing of the hydrogeology of the aquifer system at the prospec-tive test site should be gained in as much detail as possiblefrom existing literature and data, and a site

37、reconnaissance. InTABLE 1 Decision Tree for Selection of Aquifer Test MethodD4043 96 (2010)13developing a site characterization, incorporate geologic map-ping, drillers logs, geophysical logs, records of existing wells,water-level and water-quality data, and results of geophysicalsurveys. Include in

38、formation on the thickness, lithology, strati-fication, depth, attitude, continuity, and extent of the aquiferand confining beds.5.3 Select Applicable Aquifer Test MethodsSelect a testmethod based on conformation of the site hydrogeology toassumptions of the test model and the parameters to bedeterm

39、ined. A summary of principal aquifer test methods andtheir applicability to hydrogeologic site conditions is given inthe following paragraphs. The decision tree for aquifer testselection, Table 1, provides a graphic display of the hydrogeo-logic site conditions for each test method and references to

40、 thesection where each test method is cited.5.3.1 Extensive, Isotropic, Homogeneous, Confined, Non-leaky Aquifer:5.3.1.1 Constant DischargeTest method in which thedischarge or injection rate in the control well is constant aregiven by the nonequilibrium method of Theis (1)3for thedrawdown and recove

41、ry phases. The Theis test method is themost widely referenced and applied aquifer test method and isthe basis for the solution to other more complicated boundarycondition problems. The Theis test method for the pumping orinjection phase is given in Test Method D4106. Cooper andJacob (2) and Jacob (3

42、) recognized that for large values of timeand small values of distance from the control well, the Theissolution yields a straight line on semilogarithmic plots ofvarious combinations of drawdown and distance from thecontrol well. The solution of the Theis equation can thereforebe simplified by the u

43、se of semilogarithmic plots. The modifiedTheis nonequilibrium test method is given in Test MethodD4105. A test method for estimating transmissivity fromspecific capacity by the Theis method is given in Test MethodD5472.5.3.1.2 Variable DischargeTest methods for a variablydischarging control well hav

44、e been presented by Stallman (5)and Moench (6) and Birsoy and Summers (4). These testmethods simulate pumpage as a sequence of constant-ratestepped changes in discharge. The test methods utilize theprinciple of superposition in constructing type curves bysumming the effects of successive changes in

45、discharge. Thetype curves may be derived for control wells discharging fromextensive, leaky, and nonleaky confined aquifers or any situa-tion where the response to a unit stress is known. Hantush (7)developed drawdown functions for three types of decreases incontrol-well discharge. Abu-Zied and Scot

46、t (8) presented ageneral solution for drawdown in an extensive confined aquiferin which the discharge of the control well decreases at anexponential rate. Aron and Scott (9) proposed an approximatetest method of determining transmissivity and storage from anaquifer test in which discharge decreases

47、with time during theearly part of the test. Lai et al (10) presented test methods fordetermining the drawdown in an aquifer taking into accountstorage in the control well and having an exponentially andlinearly decreasing discharge.5.3.1.3 Constant DrawdownTest methods have been pre-sented to determ

48、ine hydraulic-head distribution around a dis-charging well in a confined aquifer with near constant draw-down. Such conditions are most commonly achieved byshutting in a flowing well long enough for the head to fullyrecover, then opening the well. The solutions of Jacob andLohman (11) and Hantush (7

49、) apply to aerially extensive,nonleaky aquifers. Rushton and Rathod (12) used a numericalmodel to analyze aquifer-test data. Reed (13) presents acomputer program that includes some of the above proceduresand also includes discharge as a fifth-degree polynomial oftime.5.3.1.4 Slug Test MethodsTest methods for estimatingtransmissivity by injecting a given quantity or slug of waterinto a well were introduced by Hvorslev (14) and Ferris andKnowles (15). Solutions to overdamped well response to slugtests have also been presented by Cooper et al (16). Theso
