Pre-Class - Hydraulic Head Concepts
This video introduces the concept of hydraulic head, which is a fundamental concept in groundwater flow. Hydraulic head is a measure of the potential energy of water in an aquifer. The video explains the components of hydraulic head and how it relates to pressure and elevation and groundwater flow.
This video was originally developed for CE 547 - Groundwater Modeling at Brigham Young University. But the content is applicable to our course as well.
