Abstract

Dewatering systems with vertical partially penetrating cutoff walls are usually used in the case of deep excavation for side support system and further increases the efficiency of the groundwater control system. In this study a parametric analysis was carried out using the finite difference software VISUAL MODFLOW4.2® to study the effect of placing a deep well at different locations inside the excavated area surrounded by impervious wall on drawdown results. The dewatering system under consideration consists of a single partially penetrating deep well having a penetration depth (lw) and well yield (Q). The well is located at variable distances from the corner (the origin of X and Y axes) inside the excavated area surrounded by an impervious wall. The vertical impervious wall has a depth (lc), and the excavated area (A) surrounded with impervious wall is square and having a width (W). The aquifer is unconfined with a depth (H) and is underlain by an impervious layer. The aquifer consists of an extended layer of fine to medium sand having permeability (k). The soil is assumed to be homogenous and isotropic.
