| Abstract | In deep coastal aquifers, sea water generally underlies the flowing
fresh water. Any fluctuation of water table effects the equilibrium posi
tion of interface between salt and fresh waters. Theoretical solutions
for fluctuations of free surface subjected to four exciting functions, to
name, step rise, linear rise, modified hydrograph and sinusoidal wave,
have been obtained using Laplace transform. The movement of interface
subjected to the fluctuating free surface has been studied using numerical
model. Results of the study have been verified using experimental
results. Experiments were conducted on Hele Shaw model using lubricating
oil and fresh water to simulate fresh water and sea water respectively. |
