This is a detailed description of one experiment listed on the CS382 course page

Goal

Equipment

  • enVision sand and gravel groundwater simulator
  • water soluble dye
  • pipette
  • water
  • ruler
  • kitchen timer or some other time measurement device

Procedure

  1. Mark ruler on outside of case
  2. Choose flow rate and dye amount
  3. Contaminate the confined aquifer
  4. Measure plume length at 10 second intervals
  5. Find mean / max plume length for chosen flow rate

repeat with varied flow rate.
