    This document describes the results of a step pumping test conducted in an unconfined aquifer. It provides drawdown measurements and flow rates taken during six successive steps of a pumping test. Students are asked to analyze the data by plotting graphs of flow rate over time and characteristic curves, and to calculate values like critical discharge, specific flow, and drawdowns corresponding to given flow rates. The instructor provides the data table and questions to guide the students' analysis and interpretation of the pumping test results.

    SHORT TERM PUMPING TEST
    (STEP PUMPING TEST)

    The results of a step pumping test in an unconfined aquifer are given in the following table:

    Global Drawdowns Flow rates


    tests (m) (m3/h)
    1st step 1.75 30
    2nd step 3.20 55
    3rd step 5.30 90
    4th step 7.40 120
    5th step 8.2 130
    6th step 9.2 140

    1- Draw the flow rates / time graph, considering that the pumping times are identical.
    2- Draw the characteristic curve, comment the graph.
    3- Determine the critical Discharge, deduce the exploitation pumping rate and the corresponding
    drawdown.
    4- Calculate the relative specific flow qs=17.85 (m3/h/m)
    5- Draw the line flow - specific drawdown, comment the graph
    Calculate the head losses and deduce the expression of JACOB s= 0.0552Q+ 6.00E-05Q2

    6- What are the drawdowns corresponding to the flows: 20, 70, 100m 3 / h?
