Abstract

A solution is given to the problem of the steady flow of precipitation to an infinite series of tile drains above an impervious layer. The free surface boundary conditions are exactly satisfied, but the shape of the impervious layer is approximated. Capillary forces are neglected. The theoretical results are compared with limited field measurements, and good agreement is found. The solutions become less accurate when the drains are very close to the impervious layer. The limiting casss are shown.
