Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for calculating rainfall infiltration-runoff on slopes applicable to any initial water content distribution, belonging to the fields of soil physics and hillside hydrology. Background Technology
[0002] When raindrops fall onto the soil surface, they infiltrate into the soil until the rainfall intensity exceeds the soil's limited infiltration capacity. At this point, water accumulates on the soil surface, leading to runoff and erosion. Accurately estimating the timing of water accumulation and the amount of runoff is crucial for hydrological forecasting, agricultural irrigation design, and soil and water conservation.
[0003] Rainfall infiltration is a complex dynamic process, primarily influenced by factors such as the temporal variation of rainfall intensity, the hydraulic properties of the soil profile, the initial water content distribution along the profile, and slope. Currently, the finite element method and finite difference method are mainly used to numerically solve the Richards equation to estimate the timing of water accumulation and runoff generation. However, numerical simulation methods often require high levels of discretization in both time and space to accommodate complex rainfall intensity variations at the upper boundary. Furthermore, solving a highly nonlinear Richards equation consumes significant computational resources, leading to problems such as numerical instability and high computational costs. As an improved approach, empirical, analytical, and semi-analytical infiltration equations have been discovered and applied to the simulation of infiltration-runoff processes due to their simplicity, lack of need for spatiotemporal discretization, and preservation of water balance. However, due to the complexity of rainfall infiltration, existing infiltration equations either ignore the natural characteristic of rainfall intensity changing over time (CN 105547957; CN 112685874; CN 109898489), or their inherent assumption of uniform initial moisture content distribution cannot meet the condition of non-uniform initial moisture content distribution in the field (Chen and Young, 2006; Wang et al., 2018), making them difficult to apply to real field environments. Therefore, there is currently a lack of a slope infiltration-runoff calculation method that can be used in the field to simulate non-uniform initial moisture content distribution under unsteady rainfall conditions, which will greatly reduce the timeliness and accuracy of hydrological forecasts.

Detailed Implementation
[0015] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, further illustrates the content of the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the invention. Modifications and substitutions made to the methods, steps, or conditions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and essence of the invention are all within the scope of the invention. Unless otherwise specified, the technical means used in the following embodiments are conventional means well known to those skilled in the art. Figure 1 The calculation process of this invention is explained.
[0016] Example 1
[0017] First, we analyze and describe the conditions under water accumulation. Richards The governing equations for slope flow and their boundary conditions are as follows: (1) In the formula: i Soil moisture content (cm) 3 min -3 ), z It represents the spatial coordinates (cm) of the slope normal direction. t It is the infiltration time (min). h It is the soil matrix potential (cm). i i It is the initial moisture content of the soil (cm). 3 min -3 ), h p It is the water head pressure (cm) on the soil surface. c It is the slope (°).
[0018] And analyze the Brooks-Corey model to describe the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of soil. K ( h The expressions for the relationship between soil matric potential and soil moisture content are as follows: (2) (3) In the formula: S It is the effective soil water saturation. i s It is the saturated soil moisture content (cm). 3 min -3 ), i r It is the residual soil moisture content (cm) 3 min -3 ), K s Soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (cm min) -1 ), n It is the soil pore size distribution index. h d It is the soil air suction value (cm). m = 3 n+ 2.
[0019] Using the principle of least action, the flux assumption, and the mean value theorem for integrals, a profile equation describing soil water infiltration is obtained. The flux assumption and the mean value theorem are used to simplify the functional form of the profile equation. The expression for the flux assumption is as follows: (4) In the formula: J w0 The water flow rate at the inlet (cm min) -1 ), J w Soil water flow rate (cm min) -1 ), K i This corresponds to the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity (cm min) at the initial soil moisture content. -1 ), S i This is the effective soil water saturation corresponding to the initial soil moisture content; the other parameters have the same meaning.
[0020] Based on the principle of mass conservation and the profile equation, a complete analytical model (5) – (9) is derived to describe the slope water infiltration under constant head boundary conditions with a virtual piston profile. Figure 2 ).

[0024] (8)
[0025] (9) In the formula, (10) In the formula, z f It is the length of the wetted area (cm).z fe It is a virtual piston-shaped wetted zone length (cm). z fw It is the length (cm) occupied by the saturated zone within the moist zone. I It is the cumulative infiltration volume (cm). J w0 It is the infiltration rate of the topsoil (cm min).
[0026] Based on the aforementioned infiltration analytical model, a method for calculating slope water infiltration under conditions of non-uniform initial water content distribution was established. The key to the method's validity lies in: the length of the virtual piston-shaped wetting zone... z fe As the infiltrating water moves downwards, a piston-shaped profile always exists, regardless of whether the initial water content distribution in the water profile is uniform in the early stages (see...). Figure 3 (b)). For a specific moment, the existing piston-shaped profile can be regarded as a profile generated by water infiltration under the condition of uniform initial water content distribution. The water infiltration process can be solved by an analytical infiltration model, and the magnitude of its initial water content is... i i ( z fe Therefore, for the provided initial soil moisture content profile... i i ( z By segmenting and summing the moisture profile, slope infiltration under non-uniform initial moisture content distribution conditions can be simulated based on the infiltration analytical model. Example
[0027] Based on Example 1, a slope rainfall infiltration-runoff calculation method applicable to arbitrary initial moisture content distribution is proposed. The specific technical solution mainly includes two parts: 1. For a given soil profile with non-uniform initial moisture content distribution, a method for calculating slope water accumulation infiltration under non-uniform initial moisture content distribution conditions is used to obtain a continuous soil infiltration rate curve. J w0 ( t ) and cumulative infiltration curve I ( t ); 2. Combining time compression methods, and J w0 ( t )and I ( t The cumulative infiltration and runoff of the soil were obtained by simulating the slope rainfall infiltration-runoff method under unsteady rainfall conditions.
[0028] 1. Method for calculating slope water infiltration under conditions of non-uniform initial moisture content distribution The model parameters required for the calculation method include: 1. Initial soil moisture content distribution profile. i i ( z );2、 Brooks- Corey Soil hydraulic parameters described by the model n , h d saturated hydraulic conductivity of soil K s and saturated water content i s The specific calculation method includes the following steps: First, provide an arbitrary distribution of initial soil moisture content profiles. i i ( z ),Will i s - i i ( z )The cross-section is divided into n A long strip of equal width ( n (The value must be large enough), and the center point of each bar is taken as the marker point for that segmentation. x j (See Figure 3 (a) (11) (12) In the formula, Z max It is the maximum depth of the known soil moisture profile.
[0029] Secondly, based on the aforementioned segmented profile, the cumulative soil infiltration is expressed in the form of Riemann sums. (13) In the formula, J w0 ( z fe = x j ) is when z fe Arrive at the marker x j Surface soil infiltration rate at that time; △ t j and △ I j They are z fe Experience △ Z j The time required for the distance and the increased infiltration rate. Using a first-order Taylor series expansion and the central difference method, i j ( x j )and J w0 ( z fe = ξ j ) is represented as, (14)
[0030] (15) By combining formulas (13) and (14), △ can be calculated. I j (j = 1,2,···n), the calculation expression is, (16) For the known △ I j (j = 1,2,···n), and then substituting formula (15) into formula (13), we can calculate △ t j (j = 2, ..., n), the calculation expression is: (17) In the formula J w0 ( z fe = Z j The initial water content required for the calculation is obtained by simultaneously solving formulas (8) and (9). i i ( z fe The specific steps are as follows: express formula (9) as follows, where z fe Replaced with Z j , (18) Perform fixed-point iteration on the above expression to obtain the result. z fw ,Will z fw Substituting into formula (8), we obtain J w0 ( z fe = Z j ).
[0031] Because at the initial moment of infiltration, the infiltration rate of the surface soil is... J w0 ( z fe = Z0) is infinite, therefore △ t 1. The initial moisture content will be calculated separately using formula (6), and set as [ i i ( Z 0) + i i ( Z 1)] / 2. Then z fe Reach a certain depth Z j The time taken was, (19) In summary, for a specific initial water content distribution profile i i ( z A discrete soil infiltration capacity curve can be calculated. J w0 ( z fe ) ~ t ( z fe ).
[0032] Finally, for the discrete soil infiltration capacity curves obtained in the above steps, the following method is used: Philip Parameter fitting of the two slope infiltration formulas (fitting parameters) α , β This allows us to obtain a continuous surface soil infiltration rate curve. (20) Based on the principle of conservation of mass, integration yields a functional expression for the cumulative infiltration rate versus time. (twenty one).
[0033] 2. Slope Rainfall Infiltration-Runoff Simulation Method under Unsteady Rainfall Conditions The cumulative infiltration curve calculated based on the above method I ( t ) and soil infiltration rate curve J w0 ( t A method for simulating slope rainfall infiltration-runoff under unsteady rainfall conditions is proposed, as follows: First, for a steady-state rainfall event, the rainfall rate is... r cos c (cm min) -1 The infiltration rate of the surface soil after water accumulation is expressed using the time compression method as follows: (twenty two) In the formula, t pThe time (in minutes) required for water to accumulate under steady-state rainfall. t s The virtual time (min) represents the time when the surface soil infiltration rate reaches the required level during water infiltration. r cos c (cm min) -1 The time required. According to the definition of time compression methods, J w0 ( t s The infiltration capacity (SCI) represents the soil's ability to absorb water at a certain rate. Using formulas (19), (20), and a given steady-state rainfall intensity, t p , t s The cumulative infiltration amount when water accumulates under steady-state rainfall. I p It is represented as, (twenty three) (twenty four)
[0034] (25) Secondly, based on the resolution of rainfall monitoring, non-steady-state rainfall events can be divided into segmented steady-state rainfall intervals (Chu, 1978). The rainfall rate within the nth steady-state rainfall interval... r n cos c (cm min) -1 ) can be represented as, (26) In the formula, t n and t n-1 These are the rainfall durations (in minutes) at the end of the nth and (n-1)th segments, respectively. R ( t n )and R ( t n-1 ) are the cumulative rainfall (cm) at the end of the nth and (n-1)th segments, respectively.
[0035] Within the first steady-state rainfall interval, the rainfall rate is r 1cos c Time of water accumulation within the interval t p Virtual Time t s And the cumulative infiltration amount when water accumulates under steady-state rainfall. I pThe soil infiltration capacity curve can be calculated using formulas (22), (23), and (24), and the cumulative infiltration amount can be calculated using formula (21). I ( t 1) and cumulative runoff F ( t 1) Calculate using the following formula: (27) (28) Based on the time compression method, the soil infiltration capacity at the end of the (n-1)th segment (n > 2) J w0 ( t sn-1 ) is represented as, (29) In the formula, I ( t n-1 The value represents the cumulative soil infiltration (cm) at the end of the n-1 segment of steady-state rainfall. (Virtual time) t sn-1 The iterative equation is obtained by using the fixed-point iteration method with formula (20). (30) and then J w0 ( t sn-1 It can be calculated using formula (19).
[0036] Finally, based on the comparison of soil infiltration capacity J w0 ( t sn-1 ) and rainfall rate r n cos c The magnitude of the value determines the timing of water accumulation and the amount of runoff generated within the nth steady-state rainfall interval.
[0037] a). When J w0 ( t sn-1 ) ≤ r n cos c This indicates that during the nth steady-state rainfall interval, water accumulation will occur instantaneously or continue. The soil infiltration capacity at this time can be described by formula (21). t p = t n-1 , t s = t sn-1), cumulative infiltration I ( t n )Calculated using formula (20), (31) Cumulative runoff F ( t n ) is represented as, (32) b) When J w0 ( t sn-1 ) > r n cos c This indicates that at the beginning of the nth steady-state rainfall interval, water accumulation will not occur instantaneously. Therefore, by combining formulas (20) and (21), the water accumulation time within the nth steady-state rainfall interval can be calculated. t pn It can be calculated using the following formula: (33) The specific calculation steps are as follows: Substitute formula (20) into formula (21), eliminate the time variable t, and calculate: (34) if t pn ≥ △ t This indicates that no water accumulation occurs in this area, so the cumulative infiltration rate at this time is... I ( t n and cumulative runoff F ( t n ) are respectively represented as, (35) (36) Conversely, if t pn <△ t Then, the soil infiltration capacity at this time can be described by formula (21). t p = t n-1 + t pn , t s The cumulative infiltration volume is calculated using formula (23). I ( t n and cumulative runoff F ( tn ) are respectively represented as, (37) (38).
[0038] Example 3 The following soil textures (soil hydraulic properties are shown in Table 1), different unsteady rainfall events, and two typical field soil initial moisture content distribution profiles (see Table 1) were used. Figure 4 (a) Figure 4 (c) further illustrates the slope rainfall infiltration-runoff calculation method disclosed in this invention, which is applicable to any initial water content distribution.
