The invention discloses a soil body
heat flux profile determination method based on an AH-DTS technology, and the method comprises the steps: determining a reference depth at which the soil body temperature is stable along with time through measuring the soil body temperature at different depths and different moments and the corresponding volume
water content; calculating the volume
heat capacity of the soil body, layering the soil body above the reference depth, and obtaining the average temperature and
heat capacity of each layer; and calculating the single-layer heat storage amount and accumulating to obtain the total heat storage amount, and finally obtaining the
heat flux profile of the soil body at any target depth. The method comprises the steps of reference depth determination,
soil volume heat capacity calculation, soil layer equal division and layered heat storage capacity calculation, heat storage capacity accumulation and
heat flux profile solving. The method is easy and convenient to operate and high in spatial resolution, the influence of
soil moisture content change on the heat flux can be effectively represented, in-situ
continuous measurement of the
soil heat flux profile can be achieved, and a reliable technical means is provided for research on the soil
moisture and
heat transfer law.
