In order to confirm the acceptability of the one-dimensional horizontal infiltration method(one-D method) for simultaneously determining both the saturated and unsaturated permeability coefficients of loamy sand, we first measured the cumulative infiltration and the wetting front distance under various infiltration heads through a series of one-dimensional horizontal infiltration experiments, and then analyzed the relationships of the cumulative horizontal infiltration with the wetting front distance and the square root of infiltration time. We finally compared the permeability results from Gardner model based on the one-D method with the results from other two commonly-used methods(i.e., constant head method and van Genuchten model) to evaluate the acceptability and applicability of the one-D method. The results showed that there was a robust linear relationship between the cumulative horizontal infiltration and the wetting front distance, suggesting that it is more appropriate to take the soil moisture content after infiltration in the entire wetted zone as the average soil moisture content than as the saturated soil moisture content. The results also showed that there was a robust linear relationship between the cumulative horizontal infiltration and the square root of infiltration time, suggesting that the Philip infiltration formula can better reflect the characteristics of cumulative horizontal infiltration under different infiltration heads. The following two facts indicate that it is feasible to use the one-D method for simultaneously determining the saturated and unsaturated permeability coefficients of loamy sand. First, the saturated permeability coefficient(prescribed in the Gardner model) of loamy sand obtained from the one-D method well agreed with the value obtained from the constant head method. Second, the relationship of unsaturated permeability coefficient with soil water suction for loamy sand calculated using Gardner model based on the one-D method was nearly identical with the same relationship calculated using van Genuchten model.展开更多

文摘利用改进的渗透装置试验研究了细颗粒(0.075~1 mm)含量相同时骨架颗粒组成含量不同对散粒土的管涌发生临界条件以及颗粒侵蚀流失规律的影响,结果表明:不同颗粒级配的试样在管涌发生前,水力梯度与渗流速度呈线性关系,基本符合达西定律;骨架颗粒1~2、2~3、3~5 mm 3个粒径段对管涌发展起到了阻碍作用,其中1~2 mm粒径段颗粒对管涌孔隙的堵塞作用强于另外两个粒径段颗粒;对于不同级配的骨架颗粒,其不均匀系数越大,试样的下限临界水力梯度值就越大,细颗粒越不易起动,发生管涌的时间越晚,而不同级配的骨架颗粒对试样的上限临界水力梯度影响较小。
