Abstract
Nonlinear flow type curve sets are derived on the basis of Forchheimer flow law for drawdown variations in a large‐diameter well which fully penetrates a confined aquifer. Relevant initial boundary value problem solutions are achieved by Boltzmann transformation. The validity of obtained results are checked against Papadopulos and Cooper type curves which are applicable only in linear radial flows toward large‐diameter wells. The initial portions of all type curves, irrespective of the turbulence factor and the storage coefficient, are all straight lines, indicating well storage effects.
