In hydrology, the magnitude of conductance affects the rate of Recharge or interaction with Groundwater . This parameter is often used in such computer modelling codes as MODFLOW . EXAMPLE For example, the conductance of Water through a stream-bed is: : where : is the conductance of the stream-bed ( {Link without Title} ; m2s−1 or ft2day−1) : is the Hydraulic Conductivity of the stream-bed materials( m·s−1 or ft·day−1 ; : is the area of the stream-bed ( {Link without Title} ; m2 or ft2) : is the thickness of the stream-bed sediments ( {Link without Title} ; m or ft) The volumetric Discharge through the stream-bed can be calculated if the difference in Hydraulic Head is known: : where : is the volumetric discharge through the stream-bed ( {Link without Title} ; m3s−1 or ft3day−1) : is the hydraulic head of the river (elevation stage) : is the hydraulic head of the Aquifer below the stream-bed ( {Link without Title} ; m or ft) |
