Reference: Ref. Reference information: http://www.btb.termiumplus.gc.ca/tpv2alpha/alpha-eng.html?la... ***Pump surging (sometimes called Rawhiding) involves the repeated pumping and resting of the well for well development purposes. **A column of water that is withdrawn through a pump is allowed to surge back into the well by turning the pump on and off repeatedly. However, sufficient time for the pump motor to stop reverse rotation must be allowed, such that pump damage can be avoided. Occasionally, water is pumped to waste until it is clear of sediment before again shutting the pump off. This is done to permanently remove the sediments that are being developed by the backwashing action. The process continues until sufficient quantities of water produced are consistently clean. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2016-02-09 16:36:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Although María has identified a possible option, I believe it is incomplete and should read "acondicionamiento del pozo por bomeos intermitentes" ("rawhiding"). Yo también usaría el término en inglés. http://iate.europa.eu/SearchByQuery.do?method=searchDetail&l... Domain Building and public works es Definition método de acondicionamiento de pozos, consistente en arrancar y parar la bomba intermitentemente, para producir variaciones relativamente rápidas en el nivel del pozo Definition Ref.

"por bombeos intermitentes". |
