黄土包气带土壤水特征曲线研究

STUDY ON SOIL WATER RETENTION CURVES FOR LOESS AERATED ZONE

本文主要介绍在中国辐射防护研究院 (CIRP)野外试验场从地表到潜水位 2 8m深范围内 4 6个土芯样的水特征曲线的测量方法及测量结果。结果表明 ,场址包气带导水特征随深度变化明显 ,可将其分为 5个层带 ,并由测量结果推导出各层带土壤的非饱和渗透系数、比水容量及当量孔径分布等非饱和水动力学参数。测量得到的土壤水特征曲线与现场包气带剖面含水量和基质势动态观测结果符合较好。利用本文研究得出的参数 ,计算得到的试验场址包气带孔隙水流速与现场 3 H示踪试验得到的结果也符合较好。

This paper introduces the measuring method and results of soil water retention curves of 46 samples taken from ground surface to water table of 28 m depth at CIRP's Field Test Site. The results indicate that the soil water retention characteristics vary significantly with depth, and the loess aerated zone at the site can be divided into five layers. From the results, unsaturated hydraulic parameters are deduced, such as conductivity, specific water capacity and equivalent pore diameter. The water velocity calculated from these parameters is satisfactorily consistent with that one obtained from 3H tracing test carried out at the site. (
