Description

Experimental method for accurately measuring water characteristic curve of porous medium with low water holding capacity
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of agricultural water and soil engineering, in particular to an experimental method for accurately measuring a characteristic curve of water of a porous medium with low water-holding capacity.
Background
The water characteristic curve, also called water retention curve, is a curve representing the relationship between capillary pressure, water content and saturation in porous media. The water characteristic curve plays an important role in researching the water infiltration, evaporation and solute transfer processes of the unsaturated zone, and the specific water capacity index of the porous medium can be determined according to the water characteristic curve so as to evaluate the water conductivity coefficient of the porous medium.
In order to determine the moisture characteristic curve (the relationship between the moisture content of the porous medium and the suction force thereof) of the porous medium, a lot of efforts have been made to invent several measuring methods. The traditional methods for measuring the characteristic curve of water include a sand core funnel method, a negative pressure meter method, a pressure membrane method, a centrifuge method and the like. Wherein, the pressure membrane method and the centrifuge method are both used in the measuring range that the suction force of the porous medium is more than 1 Bar; the negative pressure meter method can be used for measuring the range of suction force smaller than 1Bar, but is mainly used for field environment, and the precision is not high; the sand core funnel method is used for laboratory determination of porous media with suction less than 1 Bar. For porous media with lower water holding capacity, the water characteristic curve is generally determined by a sand core funnel method. However, the conventional core funnel method is difficult to achieve due accuracy in measuring an ultra-thin sample with a small suction force.
The working principle of the sand core funnel for measuring the suction force of the porous medium is as follows: the method comprises the following steps of (1) generating negative pressure in a funnel by draining the funnel which is sealed and contains water, so as to cause the water-containing porous medium in the funnel to drain; the water holding capacity of the porous medium can be obtained by reading the water quantity discharged by the porous medium and the corresponding negative pressure value in the funnel. By adopting the method, the negative pressure value in the funnel is changed, different water amounts discharged by the porous medium can be obtained, and the moisture characteristic curve of the porous medium can be obtained. Because the suction range of the porous medium measured by the sand core funnel method is small, the test method can be used for measuring the moisture characteristic curve of the porous medium with low water holding capacity (such as sandy soil or macroporous medium) and can also be used for measuring the moisture characteristic curve of the geotextile.
In a common experimental method for measuring the moisture characteristic curve, a sand core funnel of a test device is used, and after a porous medium sample containing water is filled in the sand core funnel, the opening of the funnel needs to be covered, so that the funnel is closed. However, if the funnel mouth is covered with ground glass, if the negative pressure value in the funnel is slightly large, the contact surface between the glass plate and the funnel mouth is likely to be subjected to air intake, and the negative pressure state is broken, so that the measurement pressure range is too small. If the funnel mouth is sealed by the rubber plug, although the sealing effect is good and the range of the measured negative pressure value is enlarged, when the rubber plug is plugged tightly, a part of air is easily blocked in the funnel, so that the pressure in the funnel is increased, and the negative pressure state in the funnel is also damaged. In addition, when a common sand core funnel is used for extracting a water sample discharged by a porous medium, water is taken from the pipe opening of the pressure measuring pipe, the water taking opening is high, and the surface tension effect of the water is added, so that the water flow is insensitive, namely when the water taking amount is less, the water is difficult to flow out, and the water taking precision is influenced.
Therefore, the conventional test device cannot achieve the required high sensitivity and accuracy for the ultra-thin porous medium sample with small suction force in the experimental method for measuring the moisture characteristic curve.
