Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method describes the field practices in conducting withdrawal and injection well tests.aquife

23、r performance testsby either withdrawal or injection through a well point. These methods involve changing the control well water level by either thewithdrawal of water from or injection of water to an aquifer through a control well and measurement of the water-level responsein the aquifer. The analy

24、sis of the data from this field practice is described in standards such as Test Methods D4105 and D4106.NOTE 1The injection of water into an aquifer may be regulated or require regulatory approvals. Withdrawal of contaminated waters may require thatthe removed water be properly treated prior to disc

25、harge.5. Significance and Use5.1 Withdrawal andor injection well test field procedures are used with appropriate analytical procedures in appropriatehydrogeological sites to determine transmissivity and storage coefficient of aquifers and hydraulic conductivity of confining beds.5.2 Practice D3740 p

26、rovides evaluation factors for the activities in this test method.NOTE 2The quality of the result produced by this standard is dependent on the competence of the personnel performing it, and the suitability of theequipment and facilities used. Agencies that meet the criteria of Practice D3740 are ge

27、nerally considered capable of competent and objectivetesting/sampling/inspection/etc. Users of this standard are cautioned that compliance with Practice D3740 does not in itself assure reliable results. Reliableresults depend on many factors; Practice D3740 provides a means of evaluating some of tho

28、se factors.5.3 This test method may be limited due to the correspondence between the field situation determined by this test method andthe simplifying assumptions of the analytical Test Methods D4106 or D4106 and D4043.6. Apparatus6.1 Various types of equipment can be used to withdraw or inject wate

29、r into the control well, measure withdrawal and injectionrates, and measure water levels. The test procedure may be conducted with different types of equipment to achieve similar results.The objectives to be achieved by the use of the equipment are given in this section and in Sections 7 and 8. The

30、selection ofequipment and measuring apparatus will be evaluated to ensure that sufficient accuracy and sensitivity will be provided for the laterevaluation of data by D4105 and D4106.6.2 Control WellDischarge or injection well test methods require that water be withdrawn from or injected into a sing

31、le well.This well, known as the control well, must be drilled and completed such that it transmits water to or from the aquifer (usuallythe entire thickness of the aquifer) at rates such that a measurable water level change will occur at observation wells. The controlwell should be as efficient as p

32、ossible, to reduce the head loss between the aquifer and the well. Well development should be ascomplete as possible to eliminate additional production of sand or silt and consequent changes in well efficiency and pumpingD4050 142water levels during the test. The cuttings from the control well shoul

33、d be described and recorded according to Practice D2488. Theanalytical method selected for analysis of the data may specify certain dimensions of the control well such as screen length anddepth of screen placement. Specific requirements for control wells may be given in standards for specific analyt

34、ical methods (see,for example, Test Methods D4105 and D4106).6.3 Observation Wells or PiezometersNumbers of observation wells and their distance from the control well and theirscreened interval may be dependent upon the test method to be employed. Refer to the analytical test method to be used forsp

35、ecifications of observation wells (see, for example, Test Methods D4105 and D4106).6.4 Control Well PumpA pump capable of withdrawal of a constant or predetermined variable rate of water from the controlwell. The pump and motor should be adequately sized for the designed pumping rate and lift. The p

36、ump or motor must be equippedwith a control mechanism to adjust discharge rate. In the case of diesel-, gasoline-, or natural-gas-fueled engines, throttle settingsshould allow for small adjustments in pumping rates. Pumps equipped with electric motors are usually controlled by adjusting backpressure

37、 on the pump through a gate valve in the discharge line. Take care to select a discharge rate small enough such that therate can be maintained throughout the test without fully opening the gate valve. If neither method of control is practical, split thedischarge and route part of the discharge back

38、to the well through a separate discharge line. If water is withdrawn, the dischargeshould be at a distance sufficiently away from the area to prevent recharging back into the aquifer being tested.6.5 Many aquifer tests are made at “sites of opportunity,” that is, using existing production wells as t

39、he control well and usingother existing wells for observation of water level. In such cases the locations and screened intervals of the wells should becompatible with the requirements of the method of test analysis.6.6 Water-Level Measurement EquipmentManual measurements can be made with a steel tap

40、e or electric tape as describedin Test Method tape, D4750, with a mechanical recorder linked to a float, or combination of pressure transducer and electronic datalogger. The accuracy of the water level measurement should be adequate to satisfy the requirements of D4105 and D4106.Generally a water le

41、vel accuracy of 0.254 cm should be adequate.6.6.1 Mechanical RecordersMechanical recorders employ a float in the well to produce a graphic record of water levelchanges. Early in the test, it may be difficult to distinguish small increments of time on the recorder chart, therefore the recordershould

42、be supplemented with additional early time measurements or by marking the trace of an automatic water-level recorderchart and recording the time by the mark. Check the mechanical recorder periodically throughout the test using the steel tape.6.6.2 Pressure Transducers and Electronic Data LoggersA co

43、mbination of a pressure transducer and electronic data loggercan provide rapid measurements of water-level change, and can be programmed to sample at reduced frequency late in the test.Select the pressure transducer to measure pressure changes equivalent to the range of expected water level changes.

44、 Check thetransducer in the field by raising and lowering the transducer a measured distance in the well. Also check the transducer readingsperiodically with a steel tape.6.6.3 Equipment used for measuring flows and water levels should have calibration records, or be calibrated for the test.6.7 Sand

45、 Content Measurement DeviceApparatus to measure the sand content in discharged water. Cone Types (for example,Imhoff) can be used for higher concentrations of sand in the discharge water and centrifugal sand separators (for example, Rossum)can be used for lower levels and are commercially available

46、and commonly used.6.8 Barometric PressureBarometric pressures should be determined and routinely logged, particularly if the test is of a longduration, such as over several days between the initial and final readings.7. Conditioning7.1 Pre-Test Procedures:7.1.1 Selecting Aquifer-Test MethodDevelop a

47、 conceptual model of the site hydrogeology and select the appropriate aquifertest method according to Guide D4043. Observe the requirements of the selected test method with regard to specifications for thecontrol well and observations wells.7.1.2 Field ReconnaissanceMake a field reconnaissance of th

48、e site before conducting the test to include as much detail aspossible on depth, continuity, extent, and preliminary estimates of the hydrologic properties of the aquifers and confining beds.Note the location of existing wells and water-holding or conveying structures that might interfere with the t

49、est. The control shouldbe equipped with a pipeline or conveyance structure adequate to transmit the water away from the test site, so that recharge is notinduced near the site. Make arrangements to ensure that nearby wells are turned off well before the test, and automatic pumpcontrols are disabled throughout the anticipated test period. Alternately, it may be necessary to pump some wells throughout thetest. If so, they should be pumped at a constant rate, and not started and stopped for a duration equal to that of the test before norshould they be started
