Subject to:
H = A, and/or
H
= 0 along some boundary
H = A at t = 0
Suppose the system has constant head boundaries (H = A, where A is uniform) and
no-flow boundaries, then we can convert the GW equation to be in terms of
drawdown rather than head.

Now we can investigate the effects on increasing the pumping rate, by multiplying
the whole equation by a constant:

Thus the solution is the same, except all the drawdowns have been increased by the
increase in the pumping rate. We did not make any assumptions about the
geometry of the domain, the spatial pattern of T, or the location of the well.

At end of pumping test, pump is stopped and water levels recover, this is called
recovery.
Water level below the original head during recover is called residual drawdown.
