Karakteristik Akifer dari Pumping Test
Pumping test uji sumur dengan pemompaan debit tertentu dari akifer
memungkinkan kita mengestimasikan nilai T dan S sebagai karakteristik Akifer
• Transmissivity (T = Kb) adalah besar kecepatan aliran air melalui penampang
vertikal akifer (tebal akifer) , dengan satuan unit luas per unit waktu
• Storage Coefficient (S = Sy + Ssb) adalah perubahan air yang tersimpan per unit
volume akifer per unit perubahan head pada area tertentu
• Radius of Influence (R) jarak horisontal maksimum pengaruh dari
pengambiloan airtanah di suatu sumur dimana tidak terjadi penurunan head
akibat pemompaan di sumur tsb (head tetap setimbang seperi semula)

Permeability in Fractured Rocks
Another approach:
• In a rock mass flow can be more like a porous medium (Long et al 1982)
• Based on structure observation K can be approached by
e.g.
1) ODA method (1985, 1996) and

‘Idea’ :
Many researchers (for example Lee & Farmer, 1993; Singhal &
Gupta, 1999) pointed out that rock mass permeability may
decrease systematically with depth. DI =…
200 m
LT is the total length of a borehole
0 < DI < 1
300 m
The greater DI, the higher permeability 43
2. Materials and Methods
3) Gouge Content Designation (GCD)
‘Idea’: If the fractures contain infillings such as gouges, permeability of the fractures
will reduce.
the permeability of clay-rich gouges has extremely low values (Singhal & Gupta,1999).
Rs value is defined as the cumulative length of core pieces longer than 100 mm in
a run
Rs the total length of the core run
RG is the total length of gouge content
The greater GCD will reduce the permeability of the core run. 44

Lithology is the individual character of a rock in terms of mineral composition, grain size, texture,
color, and so forth.

3. Result and Discussion
Coefficient determination in this study (0.6) is
lower than coefficient determination from Ku et al
(2009) result (0.9). It may because of the
transformation of depth in DI need additional
adjustment and not only normalized the length of
total depth into vertical length.
