Experimental investigation on same diameter sealing and stratified pumping of hard rock hydrogeological parameter well by Chongze DONG, Zhijie SUN

“…Results show that, (1) as for the water sealing device with the same diameter, the outer of the water sealing ring gap is increased from 3 mm to 8.5 mm by special design and manufacture of “cut out and shrink in” to solve the problem of same diameter water-sealing under the situation of extremely small water sealing ring gap, which performs well via the pumping test inspection. (2)Based on the series of tests research outside the bore hole, the custom-made “sealing material” and selected “water sealing combination” have strong adaptability with the hole, and the implementation of down-pipe goes rather smooth with low risk. (3)The stratified aqueduct is specially designed, on which the concatenated isolation sealing rubber ball fit well with the conical water isolating joint set in the waterproof casing pipe. …”
