Abstract A study is made of the three-dimensional steady flow of ground water in a stratum of infinite depth in the case of pumping from a well situated near a river. The problem is solved in an approximate formulation, the boundary conditions on the free surface and the bottom of the channel being transferred to a horizontal plane. It is assumed that the silting and inhomogeneity of the river deposits are manifested in the same way as regards the flow properties and can be taken into account in a generalized manner by a coefficient a in a boundary condition of impedance type for the piezometric head H [1]. For simplicity, the well is simulated by a point sink, and the ground is assumed to be homogeneous and isotropic. The problem is treated in the framework of linear potential theory based on Darcy's law, and the results of numerical calculations are presented in the form of graphs.
