Deep Well Dewatering System Deep wells can be used to dewater pervious sand or rock formations or to relieve artesian pressure beneath an excavation. They are particularly suited for dewatering large excavations requiring high rates of pumping, and for dewatering deep excavations for dams, tunnels, locks, powerhouses, and shafts. Excavations and shafts as deep as 300 feet can be dewatered by pumping from deep wells with turbine or submersible pumps. The principal advantages of deep wells arethat they can be installed around the periphery of an excavation and thus leave the construction area unemcumbered by dewatering equipment, as shown in figure2-7, and the excavation can be predrained for its full depth.b. Deep wells for dewatering are similar in type and construction to commercial water wells. They commonly have a screen with a diameter of 6 to 24 inches with lengths up to 300 feet and are generally installed with a filter around the screen to prevent the infiltration of foundation materials into the well and to improve the yield of the well.c. Deep wells may be used in conjunction with a vacuum system to dewater small, deep excavations for tunnels, shafts, or caissons sunk in relatively finegrained or stratified pervious soils or rock below the groundwater table. The addition of a vacuum to the well screen and filter will increase the hydraulic gradient to the well and will create a vacuum within the surrounding soil that will prevent or minimize seepage from perched water into the excavation. Installations of this type, as shown in figure 2-8, require adequate vacuum capacity to ensure efficient operations of thesystem.
Wells for temporary dewatering and permanent drainage systems may have diameters ranging from 4 to 18 inches with a screen 20 to 75 feet long depending on the flow and pump size requirements.(1) Well screens. Screens generally used for dewatering wells are slotted (or perforated) steel pipe, perforated steel pipe wrapped with galvanized wire, galvanized wire wrapped and welded to longitudinal rods, and slotted polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe. Riser pipes for most dewatering wells consist of steel or PVC pipe. Screens and riser for permanent wells are usually made of stainless steel or PVC. Good practice dictates the use of a filter around dewatering wells, which permits the use of fairly large slots or perforations, usually 0.025 to 0.100 inch in size. The slots in well screensshould be as wide as possible but should meet criteria given in c below.(2) Open screen area. The open area of a well screen should be sufficient to keep the entrance velocity for the design flow low to reduce head losses and to minimize incrustation of the well screen in certain types of water. For temporary dewatering wells installed in nonincrusting groundwater, the entrance velocity should not exceed about 0.15 to 0.20 foot per second; for incrusting groundwater, the entrance velocity should not exceed 0.10 to 0.20 foot per second.For permanent drainage wells, the entrance velocity should not exceed about 0.10 foot per second. As the flow to and length of a well screen is usually dictated by the characteristics of the aquifer and drawdown requirements, the required open screen area can be obtainedby using a screen of appropriate diameter with a maximum amount of open screen area.(3) Well hydraulics. Head losses within the well system discussed in paragraph 4-2a(5) can be estimated from figure 4-24.c. Filters. Filters are usually 3 to 5 inches thick for wellpoints and 6 to 8 inches thick for large-diameter wells (fig. 4-30). To prevent infiltration of the aquifer materials into the filter and of filter materials into thewell or wellpoint, without excessive head losses, filters should meet the following criteria: Screen-filter criteriaFilter-aquifer criteriaMax filter D15 Max filter D50Min aquifer D85 Min aquifer D50Min filter D15Max aquifer D15If the filter is to be tremied in around the screen for awell or wellpoint, it may be either uniformly or ratherwidely graded; however, if the filter is not tremiedinto place, it should be quite uniformly graded (D90/D10continuous stream to minimize segregation.Effective well radius. The
“effective” radius rw of a well is that well radius which would have no hydraulic entrance loss Hw. If well entrance losses are considered separately in the design of a well or system of wells, rw for a well or wellpoint without a filter may be considered to be one-half the outside diameter of the well screens; where a filter has been placed around a wellpoint or well screen, rw may generally be considered to be one-half the outside diameter or theradius of the filter.Well penetration. In a stratified aquifer, the effective well penetration usually differs from that computed from the ratio of the length of well screen to totalthickness of the aquifer. A method for determining the required length of well screen W to achieve an effective penetration W in a stratified aquifer is given in appendix E.f. Screen length, penetration, and diameter. The length and penetration of the screen depends on the thickness and stratification of the strata to be dewatered (para 4-2a(6)). The length and diameter of the screen and the area of perforations should be sufficientto permit the inflow of water without exceeding the entrance velocity given in b(2) above. The “wetted screen length hws” (or hw for each stratum to be dewatered) is equal to or greater than Qw/qc (para 4-2a(4) and (6)). The diameter of the well screen should be at least 3 to 4 inches larger than the pump bowl or motor.
