well: Create an analytic element of a constant-discharge well
Description
well() creates an analytic element of a well with constant discharge.
Usage
well(xw, yw, Q, rw = 0.3, ...)
Value
Analytic element of a well with constant discharge which is an object of class well and inherits from element.
Arguments
xw
numeric, x location of the well.
yw
numeric, y location of the well.
Q
numeric, volumetric discharge of the well (positive is out of aquifer).
rw
numeric, radius of well. Defaults to 0.3 length units.
...
ignored
Details
The inner annulus of a well element constitutes a singularity in the equations as the hydraulic head is undefined at
a distance smaller than rw from the well center. If a state- or flow-variable is calculated within this annulus, its
location is reset to its nearest location on the well screen.
The well is assumed to fully penetrate the saturated aquifer.
