The invention belongs to the field of geological monitoring, and discloses a
loess macropore seepage observation device and method based on a
loess digital reconstruction body, and the
loess macropore seepage observation device comprises the loess
digital reconstruction body, a coloring agent container and a water discharging
bottle; the bottom of the loess
digital reconstruction body is provided with a permeable stone layer, and the top is provided with a hermetically connected top cover; a plurality of
image acquisition devices are arranged around the loess digital reconstruction body; one sides of the drainage
bottle and the permeable stone layer are communicated with the bottom of the coloring agent container; the first end of the three-way
pipe is communicated with the interior of the top cover, the second end of the three-way
pipe is provided with a pressure meter, and the third end of the three-way
pipe is communicated with the
atmosphere. The loess digital reconstruction body duplicates the
macropore structure of the loess sample, the
water flow migration process in the macropores of the loess digital reconstruction body can be rapidly observed, the water-driven gas process in the macropores of the loess digital reconstruction body can be rapidly determined, the working efficiency is high, the device is flexible and detachable, and the cost is low. The problem that the three-dimensional migration process of the
water flow in the unsaturated loess macropores is difficult to accurately capture at present can be effectively solved.
