The differential equation governing nonsteady flow to a well in a thick leaky system has been solved by using transform techniques. Routines to tabulate the most general solution in type curve form have been developed and are available. The limiting curve of the tabulated function is the Hantush partial penetration type curve. With knowledge of the geologic framework the technique can be applied to certain field problems.
