Abstract

Sen' (1986) equation was modified for analysis of constant discharge pumping test-data in selected hydrogeological formation (Phyllite). The results obtained were compared with Sen (1986) graphical method. The least root mean square error was obtained by least-squares method. The advatage of the least squares method is the automatic objecting, which is lacking in the type-curve matching technique
