Evaluating Flow Distribution in a Multiaquifer Recharge Well Using an In Situ Flowmeter

Abstract:Quantifying the flow rate distribution in a multiple‐screen recharge well is relevant to understanding groundwater flow and solute transport behavior in managed aquifer recharge (MAR) operations. In this study, an impeller flowmeter was deployed to measure flow rate distribution in a multiple‐screen MAR well under both recharge and pumping conditions screened in the multiple‐strata of the Virginia Coastal Plain aquifer system. Preferential flow distribution in the well was observed through the uppermost screen… Show more
