Short summary
A dimensionally consistent governing equation of transient, saturated groundwater flow in fractional time in a multi-fractional confined aquifer is developed. First a continuity equation for groundwater flow in fractional time and in a multi-fractional, multidimensional confined aquifer is developed. An equation of water flux is also developed. The governing equation of transient groundwater flow in a multi-fractional, multidimensional confined aquifer in fractional time is then obtained.
