Which of the following conditions is assumed in the derivation of the Thiem Equation for steady-state flow to a well in a confined aquifer?
57. Which of the following conditions is assumed in the derivation of the Thiem Equation for steady-state flow to a well in a confined aquifer?
- Uniform aquifer thickness
- Unsteady flow
- Variable hydraulic conductivity
- Radial flow toward the well
Answer
The correct answer is: D) Radial flow toward the well
Explanation
The Thiem Equation assumes radial flow towards the well and steady-state conditions, with uniform aquifer properties.
