[0044] The soil cavity 8 comprises a concentric outer pipe 81 and an inner pipe 82, the inner pipe 82 is located in the outer pipe 81, the water injection vertical pipe 1 is in communication with the inner pipe 82, and the projection of the air duct 43 on the soil cavity 8 is located between the outer pipe 81 and the inner pipe 82.

[0045] Specifically, the water injection vertical pipe 1 is located above the ground surface during the measurement experiment and is used for water injection during the measurement experiment. The water injection vertical pipe 1 is contained in the pressure guide pipe 2, for example, connected through a clamp 10, the clamp inner ring 101 of the clamp 10 is tightly sleeved on the water injection vertical pipe 1, and the clamp support 102 of the clamp 10 protrudes and abuts against the pressure guide pipe 2. The pressure guide pipe 2 is used for measuring the liquid pressure of the water injection vertical pipe 1, the bottom of the pressure guide pipe 2 protrudes outward, and a pressure gauge 21 is arranged on the protruding part of the pressure guide pipe 2, so as to measure the liquid pressure of the water injection vertical pipe 1.

[0046] The pressure guide pipe 2 is connected with the water level gauge 3, and the water level gauge 3 is preferably an automatic water level gauge. The water level gauge 3 obtains the liquid pressure of the water injection vertical pipe 1 detected by the pressure guide pipe 2 and converts the liquid pressure into a water head height.

[0047] The water storage sleeve system 4 comprises the drainage port 41, the sleeve 42, and the air duct 43, the drainage port 41, the air duct 43, and the pressure guide pipe 2 are contained in the sleeve 42, the top of the air duct 43 is sealed, the bottom of the air duct 43 is open, the upper and lower ends of the drainage port 41 are open, and the sleeve 42 is further provided with the air outlet 44 and the water injection port 45 for air exhaust and water injection. The drainage port 41 is preferably a tubular nozzle. The materials of the water injection vertical pipe 1 and the water storage sleeve system 4 can be organic glass

[0048] The soil cavity 8 is located below the ground surface during the experiment, and is used for permeating and discharging water in the experimental section. The soil cavity 8 comprises an outer tube 81 and an inner tube 82. The inner tube 82 is the inner ring of the soil cavity 8, and the space between the outer tube 81 and the inner tube 82 is the outer ring of the soil cavity 8. The water storage sleeve system 4 is used to ensure that the water head of the outer ring of the soil cavity 8 is a constant water head.

[0049] During the experiment, the soil cavity 8 is vertically inserted / wedged into the soil of the experimental site, and then the water storage sleeve system 4 is connected and fixed with the soil cavity 8.

[0050] After the drainage port 41 is opened, the water in the sleeve 42 directly injects into the upper part of the outer ring of the soil cavity 8, and the water level at the bottom of the sleeve 42 begins to rise.

Therefore, when the water level rises to the bottom of the air pipe 43, the drainage port 41 stops discharging water due to Bernoulli's principle. At this time, since the inner and outer rings of the water simultaneously infiltrate into the soil, the water level of the outer ring decreases. When the water level of the outer ring decreases to the bottom of the air pipe 43 and is exposed to the water surface, the drainage port 41 continues to discharge water, and the water level of the outer ring rises. This is repeated to maintain the water level of the outer ring at the height of the bottom of the air pipe 43.

Water is injected into the inner ring of the soil cavity through the water injection vertical pipe, and water is injected into the outer ring through the water storage sleeve system. The present application has high integration degree, is convenient to carry, and can be moved to adjacent places at any time for multiple experiments. The water level of the outer ring is maintained through the water storage sleeve system in the measuring device, which plays a role in maintaining the water level of the outer ring, and further improves the accuracy of the vertical permeability coefficient of the inner ring soil. At the same time, the soil cavity is a double-ring in-situ permeation, and the experimental precision is higher than that of a single ring, so that the soil vertical permeability coefficient measuring device of the present application can quickly and accurately measure the soil vertical permeability coefficient.

[0067] After the drainage port 41 is opened, the water in the sleeve 42 is directly injected into the upper part of the outer ring of the soil chamber 8, and the water level of the outer ring at the bottom of the sleeve 42 begins to rise, because the distance between the bottom of the drainage port 41 and the bottom of the sleeve 42 is less than the distance between the bottom of the air pipe 43 and the bottom of the sleeve 42. Therefore, when the water level rises to the bottom of the air pipe 43, the drainage port 41 stops discharging water due to Bernoulli's principle, and at this time, the water level of the outer ring decreases because the water in the inner and outer rings simultaneously infiltrates into the soil. When the water level of the outer ring decreases to the bottom of the air pipe 43 and is exposed to the water surface, the drainage port 41 continues to discharge water, and the water level of the outer ring rises.

[0085] Step S707, obtain the time series data of the water level change of the water injection standpipe 1 from the water level gauge 3, which includes the water level of the water injection standpipe 1 and the corresponding time.

[0086] Step S708, calculate the vertical permeability coefficient of the soil at the measurement point of the experimental site according to the time series data.

[0087] Specifically, first, step S701 is performed, the measurement point is selected, and the soil container 8 is vertically inserted / wedged into the soil of the experimental site until the upper surface of the soil container 8 is flush with the soil surface, preferably until the connecting flange 5 of the soil container 8 is flush with the soil surface.

[0088] Before the measurement point is selected in step S701, the surface plants near the measurement point are removed, and the soil container 8 is vertically inserted into the soil of the experimental site to a depth of 40 cm.

[0089] Then, step S702 is performed, the water storage sleeve system 4 is placed on the soil container 8, the water injection standpipe 1 is aligned with the inner tube 82, and the entire device is fastened.

[0090] Preferably, the sealing gasket 6, steel mesh 7, and sealing gasket 6 are sequentially stacked on the connecting flange 5 of the soil container 8, and then the connecting flange 5 of the water storage sleeve system 4 is fastened with the connecting flange 5 of the soil container 8 with screw nuts, thereby fastening the entire device.

[0091] Then step S703 is performed, an external terminal such as a mobile phone is used to set the number and time and date within the effective distance range via Bluetooth, then the pipe valve 9 is closed, thereby closing the vent pipe 43, the drain 41 and the bottom opening of the water injection standpipe 1.

[0092] The mobile phone is generally within 5m in the effective distance range.

[0093] Then step S704 is performed, as shown in Figure 8 the water injection port 45 and the exhaust port 44 of the sleeve 42 are opened, and the sleeve 42 is filled with water, and the water injection standpipe 1 is also filled with water through the water level gauge opening 37. The sleeve 42 is filled with in-situ water to a predetermined height, generally 80-100 cm. The water injection standpipe 1 is filled with in-situ water to a predetermined height, generally 100-120 cm.

[0094] Then step S705 is performed to close the water injection port 45 and the exhaust port 44 of the sleeve 42.

[0095] Then step S706 is performed, after the water level data is corrected with an external terminal, such as a cell phone, and the pipe valve 9 is opened, as shown in FIG. 6, the water outlet 41 of the water storage sleeve system 4 directly injects water into the upper part of the outer ring between the inner pipe 82 and the outer pipe 81 of the soil container 8, and the water level at the flange 5 of the sleeve 42 begins to rise. When the water level rises to the bottom of the air pipe 43, the water outlet 41 stops discharging water due to the Bernoulli principle. At this time, because the inner and outer ring water simultaneously infiltrates the soil, the water level of the outer ring decreases. When the water level of the outer ring decreases and the bottom of the air pipe 43 is exposed to the water surface, the water outlet 41 continues to discharge water, and the water level of the outer ring rises. This is repeated so that the water level of the outer ring is maintained at the height of the bottom of the air pipe 43. The pipe valve 9 is used to control the end and start of the experiment, and can also avoid the impact of too high a water flow on the soil in the soil container 8 when injecting water. Figure 9

[0096] Step S707 is performed, and the water level gauge 3 transmits time series data of the change in the water level of the water injection vertical pipe 1 to an external terminal, such as a cell phone, in real time.

[0098] Specifically, a cell phone can be used to collect multiple data and record all of them.

[0099] When a variable head experiment is performed, the vertical soil permeability coefficient of the in-situ soil of the experimental site is calculated according to the following formula:

[0100]

[0101] Wherein:

[0102] K v is the vertical soil permeability coefficient;
