Abstract

The paper presents the results of numerical simulation of cluster pumping test in an heterogeneous aquifer with transmissivtyvariability described by the model of a stationary random field of its logarithm with a given scale of correlation in the plan. The case of comparable planar distance to observation wells and correlation scale is considered. Parameters of the model of transmissivity heterogeneity of the simulated aquifer are obtained from the data of experimental tests carried out within the limits of the South Voronezhskoye groundwater field. The simulation has shown that the average results of interpretation of these cluster pumping data correspond to the geometric value of the transmissivity, which confirms the previously obtained approximate theoretical result for the model of small-scale heterogeneity and extends it to an almost important case of similarity of cluster well test planar sizes and spatial scale of heterogeneity. Thus, the present study has confirmed the possibility to apply standard methods in processing of cluster pumping data under planned heterogeneity conditions to estimate the equivalent aquifer transmissivity in the well cluster location area.
