Guía de prácticas y procedimientos para el equipo hydrology apparatus P6530

Abstract

The Hydrology Apparatus P6530 is an educational experimental unit specifically designed to allow students and teachers to carry out small-scale tests that demonstrate basic physical hydrological processes, it has an instruction manual where the general guidelines and description of the equipment are presented, and it also exposes 11 experiments which can be developed adjusting different variables. The purpose of this document is to account for the development of the internal internship developed in the environmental modeling laboratory of the Faculty of Environment and Natural Resources of the Francisco José de Caldas District University. The methodology of this study is descriptive and experimental, which is developed in 5 phases. Three experiments proposed in the instructions were carried out, corresponding to 3) Groundwater flow in an unconfined aquifer, 4) Groundwater extraction from an unconfined aquifer, and 5) Interaction of depression cones, to generate a database containing the record of the results obtained. From the development of these experiments, a database was obtained that provides numerical and graphical records of the experimental procedure proposed in the instructions for the Hydrology Apparatus P6530 equipment provided by Cussons Technology and a guide to practices and procedures for future experiments, which can be found as an annex to this document. Finally, the development and analysis of the other experiments that have not been developed and are part of the instructions are recommended.
