TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a novel ring knife method soil permeability determination device belongs to the technical field of soil physics. BACKGROUND
[0002] Soil permeability is a key index for evaluating the risk of water and soil loss. In the terrain undulating areas such as mountains and hills, if the soil permeability is poor, the water is difficult to infiltrate quickly after rainfall, and the surface runoff is easy to form. The strong flow scouring force will wrap a large number of soil particles, and aggravate the water and soil loss. Determining the soil permeability can help to determine the high-risk areas prone to water and soil loss, and plan the measures such as afforestation, building terraces and other soil and water conservation measures, so as to stabilize the soil, protect the land resources, maintain the ecological balance, reduce the sediment accumulation burden of water bodies such as rivers and lakes, and ensure the normal operation of water conservancy facilities.
[0003] At present, the double ring knife method is one of the common experimental methods for determining soil permeability. The method takes undisturbed soil samples by ring knife, and after immersion, the water flow velocity through the unit soil cross section perpendicular to the water flow direction is calculated under the unit water pressure gradient according to Darcy's law, that is, the saturated water conductivity or permeability coefficient of the soil. The advantages are small water storage, simple equipment, easy operation, convenient carrying, etc. At the same time, the disadvantages are also obvious.
