(5) Capacity of Reservoir Assumption: capacity - 1,000 metric tons permeability: 0.1% homogeneous distribution of void, crack and vacant site reservoir shape: sphere Volume of reservoir: 1,000 cubic meters / 0.1% = 10 6 cubic meters Radius of cube: R (4/3) (phi) cubic R = 10 6 R = 62.5 (m) If cube: L = 100m If 1,000 ton-sphere and 0.01% permeability, L = 135m.
(6) Hole Size And Pump Power Renewable Well – Monsoon region Nearby the River & Lake Nonrenewable Well - Desert A. Renewable Aquifer Daily Supplying Capacity - depends on the daily supplying rate. inlet area number of inlet reservoir volume the volume of fracture zone Hole Size & Pump Power Depth of well Daily supplying capacity (Tons/Day) Electricity Power Generator Ground Surface Reservoir Inlet
Nonrenewable Well - Desert B. Nonrenewable Aquifer The Reservoir Volume Hole Size & Pump Power Depth of Well Daily Supplying Capacity (Tons/Day) Operation Period (Well Life Time) Total Supplying Capacity Water Quantity fixed volume of fracture zone permeability Ground Surface Reservoir No Inlet
