Applications of Darcy’s Law
Vertical Flow is in the “z” direction.z
xy
In addition to the sign convention for flow direction, we must also consider the soil as a 3-dimensional system.
Horizontal Flow is in the “x” direction.
Flow in the “y” direction is in the 3rd dimension.
Steps in the application of Darcy’s Law
• Define a Reference Elevation
• Determine two points where H is known
• Calculate the Gradient
Horizontal Column

Vertical Column
z2 - z1 = column length L
Horizontal Flow
Jw = - Ks ▼H = - Ks (H2 – H1)/(x2 – x1)
Vertical Flow
Jw = - Ks ▼H = - Ks (H2 – H1)/(z2 – z1)
Where H = p + z

H1 = p1 + z1 = p1 + 0 = p1 H2 = p2 + z2 = p2 + 0 = p2
∆H = H2 - H1 = p2 – p1 ▼H = (p2 - p1)/L
Jw = - Ks (p2 - p1)/L

p = atmosphere
H1 = p1 + z1 = 0 + 0 = 0 H2 = p2 + z2 = p2 + L
∆H = H2 - H1 = (p2 + L) - 0 = p2 + L
▼H = (p2 + L)/L = p2/L + 1

Jw = - Ks (p2/L + 1)

2L = 100 cm
Jw = - Ks (H2 - H1)/L
Jw = - (100 cm/d)(- 0.10) = 10 cm/d
Positive so confirms flow is to the right.
Ks = 100 cm/d
H1 = p1 + z1 = 10 cm + 0 = 10 cm H2 = p2 + z2 = 0 + 0 = 0
∆H = H2 - H1 = 0 - 10 cm = -10 cm ▼H = 10 cm/100 cm = - 0.10
Horizontal Flow
p = 10 cm

ZR = 0
p = atmosphere
H1 = p1 + z1 = 0 + 0 = 0 H2 = p2 + z2 = 10 cm + 100 cm = 110 cm
∆H = H2 - H1 = 110 cm - 0 cm = 110 cm ▼H = 110 cm/100 cm = 1.1
L = 100 cm
Jw = - Ks (H2 – H1)/L
Jw = - (100 cm/d)(1.1) = -110 cm/dNegative, so confirms flow is downward, and is greater than that of horizontal flow by the magnitude of Ks.
Ks

Vertical Flow (Down)
Vertical Flow (Up):
Jw = Ksp1/L - Ks
p = 110 cm
L = 100 cmKs = 100 cm/d

ZR = 0
H1 = p1 + z1 = 110 cm + 0 cm = 110 cm H2 = p2 + z2 = 0 + 100 cm = 100 cm
∆H = H2 - H1 = 100 cm - 110 cm = - 10 cm ▼H = ∆H/L = -10cm/100cm = - 0.1
Jw = - (100 cm/d) (- 0.10) = 10 cm/d
Positive value so we know that flow is upward.

Ke
At steady-state water flow, Jw must be the same through all layers such that
Jw = -k1(H2-H1)L1 = -k2(H3-H2)/L2 = -kn(Hn+1-Hn)/Ln
Ke is the total resistance to water flow and is the sum of the individual hydraulic resistivities over the column length
Ke = ΣLi/Σ(Li/Ki)
b =10 cm
K2 = 25 cm/d
K1 = 5 cm/d
Jw = ?
L1 = 25cm

p = ?
First compute Ke
Apply Darcy’s Law over the entire column to determine Jw
Do the same example but place the layer of lower conductivity at the top instead of the bottom of the column
