Scope Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of transmissivity from the measurement of force-free (overdamped) response ofa well-aquifer system to a sudden change of water level in a well. Force-free response of water level in a we

5、a.1.3 LimitationsSlug tests are considered to provide an estimate of transmissivity.Although the assumptions of this test methodprescribe a fully penetrating well (a well open through the full thickness of the aquifer), the slug test method is commonlyconducted using a partially penetrating well. Su

6、ch a practice may be acceptable for application under conditions in which theaquifer is stratified and horizontal hydraulic conductivity is much greater than vertical hydraulic conductivity. In such a case thetest would be considered to be representative of the average hydraulic conductivity of the

7、portion of the aquifer adjacent to theopen interval of the well.1.4 All observed and calculated values shall conform to the guidelines for significant digits and rounding established in PracticeD6026.1.4.1 The procedures used to specify how data are collected/recorded and calculated in the standard

8、are regarded as the industrystandard. In addition, they are representative of the significant digits that generally should be retained. The procedures used do notconsider material variation, purpose for obtaining the data, special purpose studies, or any considerations for the users objectives;and i

9、t is common practice to increase or reduce significant digits of reported data to be commensurate with these considerations.It is beyond the scope of these test methods to consider significant digits used in analysis methods for engineering data.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded a

34、ice (3), and Bouwer (4). .5. Significance and Use5.1 Assumptions of Solution of Cooper et al (1):5.1.1 The head change in the control well is instantaneous at time t = 0.5.1.2 Well is of finite diameter and fully penetrates the aquifer.5.1.3 Flow in the nonleaky aquifer is radial.5.2 Implications of

35、 Assumptions:5.2.1 The mathematical equations applied ignore inertial effects and assume the water level returns the static level in anapproximate exponential manner. The geometric configuration of the well and aquifer are shown in Fig. 1.5.2.2 Assumptions are applicable to artesian or confined cond

36、itions and fully penetrating wells. However, this test method iscommonly applied to partially penetrating wells and in unconfined aquifers where it may provide estimates of hydraulicconductivity for the aquifer interval adjacent to the open interval of the well if the horizontal hydraulic conductivi

37、ty is significantlygreater than the vertical hydraulic conductivity.5.2.3 As pointed out by Cooper et al (1) the determination of storage coefficient by this test method has questionable reliabilitybecause of the similar shape of the curves, whereas, the determination of transmissivity is not as sen

38、sitive to choosing the correctcurve. However, the curve selected should not imply a storage coefficient unrealistically large or small.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 faci

39、lities used. Agencies that meet the criteria of Practice D3740 are generally 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 ma

40、ny factors; Practice D3740 provides a means of evaluating some of those factors.NOTE 3Some published literature (5)have discussed the appropriateness of the slug test. These have not been universally accepted and the industrycontinues to use this test method.4 The boldface numbers in parentheses ref

Procedure6.1 The overall procedure consists of conducting the slug test field procedure (see Test Method D4044) and analysis of the fielddata, that is addressed in this test method.6.2 The integral expression in the solution given in (Eq

42、1) cannot be evaluated analytically. A graphical solution fordetermination of transmissivity and coefficient of storage can be made using a set of type curves that can be drawn from the valuesin Table 1.7. Calculation7.1 Prepare a semilogarithmic plot of a set of type curves of values of F(, ) = H/H

Plot the water level data in the control well,expressed as a fraction, H/Ho, on the arithmetic scale, ver

44、sus time, t, on the logarithmic scale.NOTE 4If the water level rise is very rapid with a small disparity between the calculated and measured change in water level, then time = 0 can beused as the instant the change was initiated and Ho can be the calculated rise. If there is a significant time lag b

45、etween initiation of the head change andthe peak rise or decline is significantly less than the calculated change use t = 0 as the time of maximum observed change and take Ho as the maximumobserved change.7.3 Overlay the data plot on the set of type curve plots and, with the arithmetic axes coincide
