THE EFFECT OF WELL EFFICIENCY ON IN-SITU PERMEABILITY TEST RESULTS

Scott T. Dennis, M.S.

Western Michigan University, 1987

The purpose of this study was to determine what effect well

efficiency has upon the results of in-situ permeability tests.

Several in -situ permeability tests were performed on wells

during various stages of their development. The well efficiency was

determined each time an in-situ test was performed. An accurate

value of permeability was determined by performing local aquifer

pumping tests. The accuracy of the results of the in -situ tests with

respect to the aquifer pump test results were then compared to the

efficiency of the well at the time of the test.

Test results showed that a linear relationship exists between

well efficiency and the accuracy of slug test results. A direct one

to one relationship exists using the Bouwer and Rice (1976) method of

data analysis, while a one to two relationship exists using the

Hvorslev (1951) method. Thus, the assumption by the authors that the

effect of well losses is negligible is incorrect.

INFORMATION TO USERS

This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted.

The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction.

1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. I f it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity.

2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. I f copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame.

3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. I f necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

4. For illustrations that cannot be satisfactorily reproduced by xerographic means, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and inserted into your xerographic copy. These prints are available upon request from the Dissertations Customer Services Department.

5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases the best available copy has been filmed.

INTRODUCTION

Background

Groundwater contamination has received increased attention since

the early 1970's and many instances of contamination are now well

documented. Much of the contamination that is now receiving atten­

tion is the result of past waste disposal or handling practices.

Successful remediation of this contamination is highly dependent upon

the knowledge of the hydrology of the impacted aquifer and the

a b ility to predict the movement of contamination. Parameters which

must be defined to determine the movement of contaminants, include

the aquifer's hydraulic conductivity, the hydraulic gradient, and the

porosity of the aquifer. The response of the aquifer to the with­

drawal of groundwater from purge wells can be estimated using

hydraulic parameters and aquifer dimensions. These calculations w ill

then allow for the most effective placement and pumping rate selec­

tion of the purge well to control the groundwater and capture the

contamination.

The hydraulic gradient and direction of flow are easily deter­

mined from groundwater elevation data collected from a minimum of

three monitoring wells. The porosity of the aquifer may be estimated

using numerous published ranges of values (Driscoll, 1986; Fetter,

1980; Freeze & Cherry, 1979) corresponding to the type of material

that is found in the aquifer. However, the hydraulic conductivity,

or permeability, is not as easily obtainable, since i t can vary

within the same type of material.

Hydraulic conductivity has classically been determined from data

obtained from aquifer pumping tests. While these tests provide good

data, they are often elaborate, time-consuming, and costly. Another

serious drawback is the disposal of contaminated groundwater gener­

ated by the pumping. Regulations governing the handling of these

waters often require that they be treated as hazardous waste, the

cost of which can be extremely high. In addition, pumping tests

generally do not work well in materials of low permeability.

An alternative to the pumping test is an in-situ permeability

test, what is commonly referred to as a slug or bailer test. A slug

test is performed by instantaneously injecting a known quantity of

water, while a bailer test is performed by withdrawing a known

quantity of water from a well. As the water level returns to eq u ili­

brium, i t is monitored and recorded. These data are then analyzed to

determine the aquifer characteristics. These tests have the advan­

tage of being very quick, inexpensive, and easy to perform. The slug

test also eliminates the need for disposal of contaminated ground­

water since very l i t t l e , i f any, is withdrawn from the well.

While slug tests provide data in a very quick and economical

way, the portion of the aquifer that is tested is very small. The

values from these tests, therefore, should be considered to be point

values. The results can also be affected greatly by local in flu ­

ences. Since the test is quick and economical, however, many wells

can be tested in a short period of time.

Proper well construction techniques can greatly reduce most

influences around the well which may affect the slug test; however,

the degree of well development may also affect the results of the

test. While documentation of'well construction can account for most

variables which may cause erroneous results, the degree of well

development cannot be accurately determined prior to fie ld testing of

the finished well.

Results of Previous Studies

Various sites have been investigated by EDI Engineering &

Science at which numerous slug tests were performed as well as

aquifer pumping tests. A comparison of the results of these investi­

gations shows that the values of permeability calculated from the

pumping tests were 1.5 to 7 times greater than the values calculated

from the slug tests. I t was believed that efficiency of the wells

used for the slug tests accounted for a large portion of the error;

however, the effect of well efficiency on slug test results has not

been documented. The following section presents the results of three

of these sites.

Site A

The aquifer at this site consists of well sorted sands with

occasional interbedded gravel lenses. Testing was performed on two

monitoring wells adjacent to and at the same depth as a purge well.

The aquifer at the purge well is 93 feet thick. Field and laboratory

tests were used to evaluate the aquifer's permeability. The results

of fie ld testing are presented in Table 1.

Site B

The aquifer at Site B consists of well sorted sand and gravel.

The unconfined aquifer ranges from 28 to 38 feet thick. The aquifer

materials become somewhat more coarse with depth. Slug tests were

performed on twelve monitoring wells and evaluated using the Bouwer

and Rice (1976) data evaluation method. The results of the slug-3 -2tests ranged from 2.0 x 10 to 3.1 x 10 centimeters per second

Two aquifer pumping tests were also performed at this location.-2These tests resulted in a permeability estimate of 5.4 x 10 cm/sec.

Site C

This s ite consists primarily of poorly sorted sand and gravel.

The aquifer consists of 3 to 5 foot thick lenses that vary between

medium to coarse sand and clayey s ilty sand. Slug tests were

performed on 21 monitoring wells which ranged in depth within the

aquifer. The results of the slug tests using the Bouwer and Rice-3 -3technique ranged from 1.1 x 10 to 4.3 x 10 cm/sec, with an

Summary of Three Sites

Permeability values from slug tests from a ll three of these

sites produced permeability values lower than those calculated from

the aquifer pumping tests. A summary of these results is presented

While slug tests consistently produced significantly lower

results than the aquifer tests, the cause could not be documented.

I t was believed that well efficiency accounted for these low results;

therefore, this study was designed to document that well efficiency

can significantly affect the results of slug tests.

a relationship can be established between well efficiency and slug

test results, results of slug tests could be corrected based upon the

efficiency of the well so that a more accurate value of the hydraulic

conductivity of the aquifer could be reported.

Scope

The effect of well efficiency w ill be evaluated by performing

in -situ permeability tests on several wells throughout their develop­

ment. The efficiency w ill also determined at the time of the slug

test. Results of the slug tests and the well efficiency tests w ill

be evaluated to determine i f a relationship exists.

HYDROGEOLOGICAL SETTING

The site of this investigation consists of a water table aquifer

composed of well sorted sands underlain by a thick, massive grey

clay. A detailed hydrogeological investigation has been conducted

from 1983 to 1986 which included the construction of 88 monitoring

wells. The extent of the study area is shown in Figure 1. The

following section presents the aquifer dimensions and hydraulics

determined from this hydrogeological investigation.

Aquifer Dimensions

Water table elevations measured in the monitoring wells indicate

that a groundwater divide trends east-west through the central

portion of the site. Water levels collected on November 7, 1986 are

presented in Figure 2. This groundwater flow pattern is consistent

with data collected over the past three years.

The top of the grey clay which forms the base o f the aquifer

slopes downward toward the southwest and to the south. Several

subtle valleys were defined in the surface of the clay. Several

borings were extended into the clay and indicate that the clay

exceeds 50 feet in thickness. The elevation of the surface of the

clay is shown in Figure 3.

The aquifer consists of outwash deposits which range from fine

sands near the water table to s ilty fine sands at the base of the

aquifer. Grain-size distribution analyses of soils from several

borings throughout the site indicates that the aquifer materials

become more fine with depth. A typical grain-size analysis of

samples from various depths below the water table is shown in Figure

4.

The aquifer is thickest in the extreme southwestern portion of

the study area where i t reaches a thickness of 38 feet. The aquifer

thins to the north to a thickness of 20 feet.

Aquifer Hydraulics

Permeability of the aquifer decreases with depth in the aquifer

as the percentage of fine-grained sediments increases. This was

determined by performing over 30 slug tests and two aquifer pump

tests.

Slug Tests

More than 30 slug tests were performed during 1984 and 1985.

The data were evaluated using the Bouwer and Rice method and the

results summarized in Table 3. The wells tested varied in depth with

respect to the aquifer base. The relationship between depth and

permeability is shown graphically in Figure 5. The average of the-3slug test results in the lower ten feet of the aquifer is 1.55 x 10

cm/sec. The average of the test results from wells screened greater-3than ten feet above the base the aquifer is 3.8 x 10 cm/sec.

Previous Aquifer Pump Tests j

Two aquifer pump tests were performed in August, 1985. The two

tests were performed at the same location and were identical except

for the portion of the aquifer tested. Wells were constructed for

the tests in two-well clusters, with one well screened near the base

and one well screened in the upper portion of the aquifer. Four of

these clusters were constructed. The pumping well cluster was con­

structed of 4-inch casing with 5-foot long screens. The monitoring

wells were constructed of 2-inch galvanized casing with 3-foot long

screens. Monitor well clusters were located 25 feet west, 25 feet

east, and 50 feet east of the pumping well cluster, respectively.

Water levels during the tests were monitored continuously in a ll

six monitor wells, as well as in the 4-inch well that was not being

pumped. Water levels in these seven wells were checked periodically

using the wetted-tape method to verify the accuracy of the continuous

water level recorders. The water level in the pumped well was also

periodically determined and recorded. The drawdowns measured from

the wells in the pumped portion of the aquifer were used to determine

the hydraulic characteristics of that portion of the aquifer, while

the water levels from the non-pumped portion were used to estimate

the ratio between vertical and horizontal permeability.

The wells were pumped at approximately 4 gallons per minute. At

this pumping rate, water levels in monitoring wells twenty-five feet

from the pumping well became relative ly stable about one hour after

pumping commenced, pgure 6 presents a semi-logarithmic plot of data

from the test conducted in the basal portion of the aquifer.

The results of the aquifer tests were evaluated using the

Boulton (1963) method for pumping at non-equilibrium conditions,

distance-drawdown straight-line techniques, and Theis (1935) curve-

f it t in g for the recovery data. The results of these two tests

revealed that in the area where the tests were performed, the trans­

missivity of the upper portion of the aquifer ranges from 660 to 880

square feet per day ( f t /day), while the transmissivity of the basal2portion of the aquifer ranges from 104 to 158 f t /day. The storage

coefficient in the upper portion of the aquifer was calculated to be

0.09 while in the basal portion i t is 0.01 to 0.02. The aquifer at

this location is 22 feet thick; therefore, the aquifer tests result_2in a permeability of about 1.2 x 10 cm/sec in the upper portion and

-32.1 x 10 cm/sec in the basal portion.

| FIELD METHODS

The aquifer being tested is outwash sediments consisting of fine

sands underlain by a thick clay formation. The wells were screened

at the bottom of the outwash deposits. A 2-inch diameter monitoring

well was drilled 10 to 25 feet away from the location of each purge

well to be used for this study. Soils information from the boring

for each monitoring well was used to design the purge well. The

purge wells were used for testing because they would accommodate a

submersible pump for the step-drawdown test. Three purge wells were

tested.

The wells tested consisted of 6-inch diameter casing and screen,

wells IW-1 and IW-2 with a 20-foot long screen and PW-6 with a

10-foot screen. After the wells were installed, they were developed

with compressed a ir . Periodically, the development was stopped and

the water level allowed to stabilize. A step-drawdown test was then

conducted to determine the well efficiency. After the water level

had fu lly stabilized, a slug test was performed. Upon completion of

the slug test, the well was developed further and the testing proce­

dure repeated.

After testing was completed, the well was developed completely

to ensure peak efficiency during operation. After this final develop­

ment, an aquifer test was performed. Water levels were monitored in

the pumped well and the nearby monitor well during pumping. Water

level data collected from the monitor well were used to calculate19

accurate transmissivity, storage coefficient, and permeability

values.

Slug Tests

In-situ permeability tests, or slug tests, are single-well

aquifer tests in which a known quantity of water is injected into the

well. After the water is injected, the water level is monitored as

i t returns to the original static level.

Rapid measurement of the water level during the test is required

for wells in moderately permeable or very permeable formations. This

was accomplished through the use of a pressure transducer suspended

in the well linked to an electronic data logger. A SE1000B Environ­

mental Data Logger was used for this investigation. This instrument

is manufactured by In -S itu , Inc. of Laramie, Wyoming. The pressure

transducer has a range of 0 to 10 pounds per square inch (psi). This

allows for monitoring of water levels with heads from 0 to 23 feet

above the transducer. This transducer/data logger system was c a li­

brated to have an accuracy of +0.01 foot.

There are various methods of causing a slug of water to be

injected into a well. The method used involves in it ia lly applying a

constant vacuum to the well. This causes the water level within the

well to rise. After the flow into the well is stabilized, the vacuum

is released, creating the effect of an instantaneous injection of a

slug of water. Of th | various methods available, this was determined

to be the most e ffic ien t.

Step-Drawdown Tests

Step-drawdown tests were performed to determine well efficiency.

A step-drawdown test is a single-well aquifer test in which the well

is pumped in three or more steps. The pumping rate is increased with

each successive step. The water level responses at each of the three

pumping rates are then compared to evaluate well efficiency. The

water levels were monitored using the same recording device used for

the slug tests.

A submersible pump was lowered into the well and placed near the

bottom of the well screen. The pressure transducer was then sus­

pended above the pump intake. Water flow rates were controlled using

a gate valve. Flow rates were measured using an in -line flowmeter

accurate to 0.1 gallon per minute. The flow rate was periodically

checked using a 3.5 gallon bucket and a stopwatch. The gate valve

must be operated e ffic ien tly during the test so that the flow rates

can be quickly changed to the desired rate.

During the operation of the in it ia l step-drawdown test, i t

became apparent that the flow rate must be kept extremely low to

avoid developing the well during test, thus improving the well

efficiency and producing erroneous test results. I t was doubtful

that the low flow rates required (.5 to .75 gallons per minute) would

22

produce turbulent flow to a degree that would allow for accurate test

analysis. Because of these potential problems, the final step was

extended until the water level had stabilized. This allowed for

accurate determination of the well efficiency once the actual aquifer

transmissivity had been determined.

Well Development

Three slug tests were conducted on well IW-1. Test A was

conducted after the well was developed for 15 minutes, and the water

level had stabilized. Upon completing test A, the well was developed

for about 1.5 hours at which time the water produced from the well

was free of sand. However, the water s t i l l contained a large amount

of s i l t . Test B was then conducted after the water table had stabi­

lized. After Test B, the well was pumped for about 2 hours at a rate

of approximately 15 gallons per minute (gpm). This pumping resulted

in s ilt-fre e water. The well was again a ir developed for about 30

minutes to remove a ll sand that may have been drawn into the well

during pumping, but settled to the bottom of the well rather than

being removed through the pump. The well was allowed to stabilize

overnight. Test C was performed the following morning.

Two slug tests were performed on well IW-2. Test A was con­

ducted when the water level stabilized after approximately 20 minutes

of developing. After Test A, the well was a ir developed for approxi­

mately two hours. The well was allowed to rest two days, before Test

23

B was performed. While the well was developed further after Test B

was performed, no additional slug tests were performed.

Four tests were performed on well PW-6. Test A was conducted

after approximately 25 minutes of a ir development and a rest period

to allow the water level to stab ilize . The well was then a ir

developed for about two hours. Following a lengthy rest period, Test

B was performed. The well was then further a ir developed for two

hours. After the water level had stabilized and Test C completed,

the well was pumped for one hour at a rate of approximately 15

gallons per minute. This pumping resulted in sand-free and rela­

tive ly clear water. After pumping, the well was developed for an

additional two hours. Test D was conducted after the water level had

stabilized.

Pumping Test

Upon completion of well development, a one-hour aquifer test was

performed. This test was performed using the same submersible pump

used for the step-drawdown tests. Flow rates were kept constant

throughout the test using a single gate valve. The flow rates ranged

between 11 and 14 gallons per minute and were measured using an

in -line flowmeter accurate to 0.1 gallon per minute. The flow was

periodically checked using a 5-gallon bucket and a stopwatch. During

pumping, water levels were monitored in the purge well and in the

2-inch monitor well located nearby using the transducer/data logger

system previously described.

The data gathered from the pumped well during this testing were

then used to determine the final specific capacity and efficiency of

the purge well. The water level response in the nearby monitoring

well allowed for an accurate calculation of the aquifer transmis­

s iv ity near the purge well.

Pumping was discontinued after one hour because the water levels

were relatively stable. Based upon the water level response during

the 5-day aquifer test in 1985, extending the duration of pumping was

not expected to result in any significant additional drawdown (see

Figure 6).

DATA EVALUATION METHODS

Water level data were recorded and stored in the memory of an SE

1000 B Environmental Data Logger. The data was transferred to an IBM

PC computer via an RS-232 serial port and stored on floppy disks.

Software to fa c ilita te the data transfer was supplied by In-S itu ,

Inc. After transfer of the data to the PC, the data was edited using

PC-Write word processing software to format the data for import into

a Lotus f i le . Once the data are in the Lotus f i l e , the data can

easily be manipulated and graphed with the desired format and scale.

Programs were developed by the author for the IBM PC to calcu­

late permeability and to evaluate the step-drawdown test data, and to

evaluate portions of the aquifer test and well efficiency calcula­

tions.

Slug Tests

Data from the slug tests were manipulated and graphed using

Lotus spreadsheet software. The graphs were prepared so that the

data could be evaluated using the techniques described by Bouwer and

Rice (1976) and Hvorslev (1951). These are two of the available

analytical methods that can be used for calculating the permeability.

Other solutions are available; however, either they are curve-fitting

techniques, or they do not allow for partial penetration of the wells

or they do not allow for cases in which the aquifer is unconfined.

Bouwer and Rice (1976)

The Bouwer andjRice (1976) solution for evaluating slug test

data allows for situations in which the aquifer is not artesian and

the well does not fu lly penetrate the aquifer. Their equations are

based upon a modification of the Theim equation. The following

assumptions apply:

1. Drawdown (or mounding) of the water table around the well is

negligible. Thus, a ll flow in the aquifer is horizontal.

2. Flow above the water table can be ignored.

3. Head losses as the water enters the well are negligible.

4. The aquifer is homogeneous and isotropic.

The water level data from the slug test is corrected so that the

difference between the original static water level and the water

level is known. This difference in water level at time "t" is

denoted as "yt ". A semi-log graph is then prepared which shows the

relationship of "y" (log scale) versus elapsed time (arithmetic

scale). The straight-line portion of this graph is determined. The

end point values of the straight-line are then substituted into an

equation along with well construction and aquifer thickness informa­

tion to determine the horizontal permeability of the aquifer.

horizontal versus vertical permeability. This is rarely known;

howevjer, the ratio can often be estimated.

Hvorslev noted that flow of water into or from an observation

well w ill occur until the pressure d ifferential between the formation

and the well is eliminated. This pressure d ifferential exists when a

slug of water is injected or removed from a well during a slug test.

Hvorslev defined the time required to equalize the pressure i f the

original inflow rate were maintained as the basic time lag, T. The

magnitude of the basic time lag is dependent upon well construction

and is inversely proportional to aquifer permeability. The basic

time lag is determined graphically from a semi-logarithmic plot of

residual hydraulic head (logarithmic) versus time (arithm etic). The

basic time lag is defined as the time, T, when residual hydraulic

head (h/hQ) = 0.37.

Step-Drawdown Tests

Data obtained from the step-drawdown tests were evaluated using

procedures described by Jacob (1947). Jacob proposed that drawdown

in a pumped well has two components, a first-order (laminar) compo­

nent and a second-order (turbulent) component. The sum of these two

components of drawdown are related to the drawdown observed in a

pumped well by the following equation:

s = BQ + CQ2

Where:

s = drawdown in well

B = head loss constant associated with laminar flow

C = head loss constant associated with turbulent flow

These equations assume that turbulent flow exists and that the

efficiency of the wells remains constant throughout the test. In

most of the tests during this study, one or both of these assumptions

were not met due to the fact that: (a) the well efficiency improved

during pumping, and .(b) the low flow rates that were required to

reduce well development during pumping like ly produced very l i t t le

turbulent flow.

The above mentioned discrepancies from the theoretical assump­

tions resulted in erroneous calculations of C and B. Therefore,

step-drawdown test data was not used to determine well efficiency.

Predicted versus Actual Drawdown

Due to the in ab ility of the step-drawdown tests to accurately

determine well efficiency, well efficiency was determined based upon

the results of the aquifer pump tests. This was possible since the

last step of each step-drawdown test was continued until the water

level became relatively stable, thus nearly reaching equilibrium

conditions.

Local transmissivity and storage coefficient values were deter­

mined using the data collected during the aquifer pumping tests

performed on each of the three wells. These values were then used to

determine the theoretical drawdown that should occur in the pumped

well i f the well were 100% e ffic ie n t using the method described by

Theis (1935). The equations of importance are:

Pumping Tests

Boulton's jl963) Method

Analysis of pump test data in an unconfined aquifer with flow in

an unsteady state may be performed u tiliz in g the method developed by

Boulton (1963). This technique is a curve matching procedure in

which a logarithmic plot of drawdown versus time is matched to a type

curve to determine the transmissivity and specific yield of the

aquifer.

Boulton's method of analysis assumes the following conditions

are fu lf ille d :

1. The aquifer is in fin ite in areal extent.

2. The aquifer is homogeneous, isotropic, and of uniformthickness.

3. The aquifer is unconfined.

4. The water table is horizontal before pumping exists.

5. Pumping is at a constant rate.

6. The pumping well fu lly penetrates the aquifer, and waterflows horizontally toward the screen over its entire length.

7. Flow to the well is in an unsteady state.

8. The diameter of the well is small (well storage can beneglected.)

A family of type curves is plotted on logarithmic graph paperp

(4'JYTs/Q versus 4Tt/r S) for various values of r/b . The portion le f t

of the break in the curves is the Type A curve and is described as W

(uA,n) versus l/u a. The right portion of the graph is the Type B

curve described as W(uB,n) versus l/u b. Logarithmic time-drawdown

plots are prepared on graph paper of the same scale as the type

curves. These plots are then overlain and a match point selected.

For convenience, match points should be selected such that 41YTs/Q 2

and 4Tt/r S equal 1.0. The match point is defined by values of

4'HTs/Q, 4T t/r2S, t and s.

Assuming the ma1;ch point is selected such that 4ffTs/Q and 24T t/r S equal 1.0, the equations of importance are:

Q = well discharge b = aquifer (saturated) thickness T = transmissivityr = distance from pumped well to observation well s = drawdown in observation well S = storage coefficient t = time

Time-Drawdown Evaluation

The hydraulic characteristics of the aquifer were also evaluated

using the time-drawdown straight-line method (Cooper and Jacob,

1946). There are three segments of a semi-logarithmic plot of time

(logarithmic) versus drawdown (arithm etic). The f ir s t segment

displays an increasing slope during the early stages of pumping as

the cone of depression deepens quickly. During the second stage of

pumping, the cone of depression increases radially. During this

stage of pumping, the semi-log plot of time versus drawdown exhibits

a constant slope. The plot w ill eventually level o ff as the aquifer

reaches equilibrium.

To use this time-drawdown analytical technique, the slope of the

straight-line segment must be determined. The change in drawdown per

log cycle can then be used to calculate the transmissivity of the

aquifer using the following equation:

This equation can be manipulated so that when the pumping rate

is expressed in gallons per minute, drawdown in feet and transmis­

s iv ity in gallons per day per foot (gpd/ft), the equation becomes:

From this same data, the specific yield of the aquifer can be

determined using the Theis (1935) method. The equations of impor­

tance are:

determines permeability based upon the slope of the straight-line

portion of the graph. As shown in Figure 7, the slope of test B is35

greater than that of test A and the slope of test C is greater than

the slope of test B. Hence, permeability calculated with the Bouwer

and Rice equation w ill increase between tests A and B and between

tests B and C.

Semi-logarithmic plots of time versus residual drawdown used for

the Hvorslev method are shown in Figure 8. The Hvorslev equation

includes the variable T, or Basic Time Lag. This is the time at

which residual drawdown (H/HQ) equals 0.37. As shown in Figure 8,

Basic Time Lag decreases from test A to test B and from test B to

test C. Permeability calculated using the Hvorslev equation is

inversely proportional to the Basic Time Lag; hence, the calculated

permeability w ill increase from test A to test B and from test B to

test C.

Detailed plots of each test showing a ll data points are pre­

sented in Appendix A. Values used in the Bouwer and Rice equation as

well as values used in the Hvorslev equation are shown in Table 5.

Note that the dimensions of the aquifer and well can be found in

Semi-logarithmic plots of time versus drawdown for the four

tests on PW-6 are shown in Figure 11. Semi-logarithmic plots of time

versus residual drawdown are shown in Figure 12. Again, the

relationship between successive test plots for both methods is

similar to the relationship between successive tests on wells IW-1

and IW-2. Thus, as seen in testing of wells IW-1 and IW-2, the

calculated permeability increased between successive tests. Detailed

plots of individual tests can be found in Appendix A.

Values used in the Bouwer and Rice equation as well as those

used for Hvorslev's method are presented in Table 9. The dimensions

of the aquifer and the well are in Table 4. These data result in the

permeability values reported in Table 10.

Summary

The results of a ll tests of the three wells are presented graph­

ica lly in Figure 13. As can be seen from this graph, permeability

values determined from the in-situ permeability tests increase

throughout the well development process.

Pumping Tests

Accurate values of permeability to evaluate the accuracy of the

slug test results were obtained by conducting aquifer pump tests.

Data from the monitor well collected during the aquifer pump test at

each location were analyzed using Boulton's method. While the

logarithmic plots of drawdown versus time matched the general shape

of the Boulton type curve, a reasonable curve match was d iffic u lt to

obtain.

The semi-logarithmic plot of drawdown versus time was analyzed

using the straight-line method. Data collected from the monitor well

and the pumped well were analyzed using this technique. The results

of both methods were then compared.

Well IW-1

Data collected from the monitor well 12.7 feet away from IW-1

during the aquifer pump test were analyzed using Boulton's method. A

good f i t of the data curve with the Boulton type curve could not be

obtained; therefore, the values of transmissivity and specific yield

calculated by this method were not accurate.

The sem1-logarithm1c plot of time versus drawdown in the monitor

well used in the Cooper and Jacob method is presented in Figure 14.

The values of transmissivity and specific yield calculated by this 2method are 600 f t /day and 0.02, respectively. A permeability of

_37.44 x 10 cm/sec is calculated from this transmissivity value.

The semi-logarithmic plot of time versus drawdown during pumping

in the pumped well was analyzed using the Cooper and Jacob method.

Due to the additional drawdown in a pumped well caused by well

losses, the resulting transmissivity was 1/7 of the transmissivity

calculated from monitor well data.

All of the data from the aquifer test, as well as detailed

plots, are presented in Appendix B.

Well IW-2

Data were collected during the aquifer pump test from the

monitor well located 27 feet away from IW-2. A relative ly good f i t

was obtained between the Boulton type B curve and the logarithmic

plot of time versus drawdown (see Figure 15). This plot and the2selected match point resulted in a transmissivity of 1,175 f t /day

and a specific yield of 0.31.

The semi-logarithmic plot of time versus drawdown presented in2Figure 16 resulted in a calculated transmissivity of 1,198 f t /day

and a specific yield of 0.02. This is very consistent with the

transmissivity values obtained using Boulton's method. Permeability-2calculated from this transmissivity is 1.42 x 10 cm/sec.

The Cooper and Jacob method was used to analyze data from the

pumped well during the pumping portion of the test. Again, due to

well losses, the transmissivity calculated from these data was about

1/8 of the transmissivity calculated from monitor well data.

The data from the aquifer test, as well as detailed plots, are

presented in Appendix B.

Well PW-6

There was no monitor well located close enough to PW-6 to be

useful during the pump test; therefore, data to evaluate the

hydraulic properties of the aquifer were obtained from drawdown

measurements in PW-6. The measured drawdown is partia lly a result of

well losses caused by inefficiency of the well; therefore, the

resulting transmissivity w ill be lower than the true aquifer trans­

missivity. The transmissivities calculated from the pumped well data

was 1/7 to 1/8 the value calculated from monitor well data at IW-1

and IW-2. This relationship was then used to correct the results

obtained from the water levels in the pumped well.

The data from PW-6 were evaluated using the Cooper and Jacob

method. The semi-logarithmic plot of time versus drawdown used for

this evaluation is shown in Figure 17. These data result in a2transmissivity of 55 f t / day. This value is much lower than that

expected based on previous data and from slug test data. The data

from the other two pumped wells during the pump tests resulted in

transmissivity values that were 7 to 8 times lower than those

obtained from the monitor wells; therefore,, the transmissivity

calculated from PW-6 was multiplied by 7.5 to obtain a value that was

more consistent with other data. This results in an accepted trans-2missivity near well PW-6 as 410 f t /day. The specific yield was

accepted as 0.02.

Aquifer test data and detailed plots are presented in Appendix

B.

The values of transmissivity during this study are higher than

the value reported from the aquifer test conducted in 1985. This is

explainable since the 1985 aquifer test was conducted in an area that

had been used for sludge disposal for many years which has resulted

in plugging of the aquifer at that location.

Well Efficiency

The well efficiency at the time of each slug test calculated

using the data from step-drawdown tests resulted in erroneous values.

In several cases C was negative, thus indicating that the well

efficiency improved throughout the test. The low flow rates also

lik e ly resulted in very l i t t l e turbulent flow.

Due to the uncertainty of the step drawdown test results, well

efficiencies were calculated by comparing the theoretical drawdown

calculated using the transmissivity values obtained during the

aquifer pump tests with the actual drawdown. As expected, the well

Relationship Between Slug Test and Aquifer Test Results

The transmissivity values calculated from the aquifer pump tests

were converted to permeability values based upon the local saturated

thickness. These values were then accepted as the actual permeabil­

ity of the aquifer at each location. In general, the values obtained

from the in it ia l test using the Bouwer and Rice technique were

between 3% and 14% of the theoretical value while the Hvorslev method

produced results that ranged between 6% and 37%. For la ter tests,

these values increased to 12% to 39% using the Bouwer and Rice method

57

and to 14% to 90% using the Hvorslev method. These results are shown

graphically in Figure 18. I t should be noted that after the last

test was performed, the wells were further developed to ensure peak

efficiency during operation; however, i t was not possible to test any

of the wells after the final development.

At wells IW-1 and IW-2, slug tests were performed on the

adjacent monitor well. The monitor wells were developed using

development techniques beyond those normally used on small diameter

monitor wells. They were rod pumped at 10 to 12 gallons per minute

(gpm) until the water was free of sand and s i l t . The wells were then

pumped at 15 gpm for an additional hour. Using this technique, the

wells are more extensively developed than normally performed on a

monitor well. The permeability values from these wells should

therefore represent values from a monitor well at or near the upper

lim it of efficiency. The results of these slug tests as reported in

in Table 12 are roughly equivalent to the results from the final slug

test conducted on the purge well. Therefore, the values reported in

this study are considered to be equivalent to the range of results

that would be obtained from typical monitor wells.

Relationship Between Slug Tests and Well Efficiency

Bouwer and Rice

Accuracy of the slug test results and well efficiency were

compared to determine i f a consistent relationship exists. The

relationship between accuracy o f the Bouwer and Rice results and well

efficiency is shown graphically in Figure 19. As shown in this

figure, a linear relationship exists between the two values. A

linear regression performed for these data is also shown in Figure

19. This linear regression very closely approximates a one to one

relationship between the two values. The discrepancy from this

relationship is small enough that errors in data calculation and

reporting could account for the discrepancy.

Based upon these data, the accuracy of the results obtained from

in -situ permeability tests calculated using the Bouwer and Rice

technique is equal to the well efficiency. Hence, i f the efficiency

of a monitor well could be determined at the time of testing, the

resulting value could be corrected so that i t more accurately

predicts the aquifer permeability.

Hvorslev

The accuracy of the results of the slug tests using the Hvorslev

method was compared with the well efficiency. This relationship is

shown graphically in Figure 20. Once again, a linear relationship

exists between these two variables. The linear regression fo r this

relationship is also presented in Figure 20. While a direct one to

one relationship does not exist in this case, the regression approxi­

mates the line defined as y = 0.5x. Hence, the accuracy of the slug

test data using the Hvorslev method was approximately double that of

the well efficiency in this study.

CONCLUSION

Slug Tests

The results of this study have shown that a linear relationship

exists between the accuracy of the results of slug tests and the

efficiency of the well being tested. The equation defining the

regression of the relationship between well efficiency and the

accuracy of the slug tests based upon the Bouwer and Rice method is

not equal to that defining the relationship with the accuracy of the

Hvorslev method.

Due to the relationship with efficiency, i t is not correct to

assume slug tests produce true values of permeability since no well

is 100% e ffic ie n t. I f the efficiency of the well would be deter­

mined, the results of the slug tests could be corrected so that they

represent a more accurate value of the aquifer permeability.

I t should be noted that the relationships presented in this

paper represent the results of evaluation of data from this single

test s ite . While these relationships should remain linear at other

sites with different well and aquifer configurations, the equations

defining these relationships may vary.

Recommendation for Future Research

An accurate calculation of well efficiency using present tech­

niques requires testing of the well which is more extensive than that

required for slug tests. These tests would require pumping of water

from the well and would have the same drawbacks as aquifer pumping

tests described in the introduction of this paper. This testing

eliminates the advantages of slug tests which are quick and inexpen­

sive. A method needs to be developed which would allow well

efficiency to be calculated using simple and inexpensive fie ld

testing procedures.

The results of this study are based on data collected from one

site with the same aquifer and well configurations. While the

relationship defined by this paper has been detected and qualita­

tive ly evaluated at other sites with various aquifer types and well

configurations, the relationships have not been quantified. The same

type of testing and evaluation presented in this paper should be

conducted at other sites to evaluate i f a consistent relationship

exists throughout a ll aquifer types and well configurations.
