The detailed syllabus for Ground Water Development and Management B.Tech 2016-2017 (R16) third year second sem is as follows.
B.Tech. III Year II Sem. L/T/P/C
Course Code:CE613PE 3/0/0/3
Pre Requisites: Water Resources Engineering
Course Objectives: The objective of the course is to study the moment, occurrence of ground water and its development and management
Course Outcomes: At the end of the course, the student will be able to Understand Ground Water occurrence, Ground Water Movement Well constructional etc..
UNIT – I: Ground Water Occurrence: Ground water hydrologic cycle, origin of ground water, rock properties effecting ground water, vertical distribution of ground water, zone of aeration and zone of saturation, geologic formation as Aquifers, types of aquifers, porosity, Specific yield and Specific retention.
UNIT – II: Ground Water Movement: Permeability, Darcy’s law, storage coefficient. Transmissivity, differential equation governing ground water flow in three dimensions derivation, ground water flow equation in polar coordinate system. Ground water flow contours their applications.
UNIT – III: Steady groundwater flow towards a well in confined and unconfined aquifers – Dupuit’s and Theim’s equations, Assumptions, Formation constants, yield of an open well Well interface and well tests – Recuperation Test. Unsteady flow towards a well – Non equilibrium equations – Theis’ solution – Jocob and Chow’s simplifications, Leaky aquifers – Well Interference.
