Numerical investigation of wetting front migration and soil water distribution under vertical line source irrigation with different influencing factors
Vertical line source irrigation (VLSI) is an underground irrigation method suitable for deep-rooted plants. Understanding the characteristics of the soil wetting body of the VLSI was the key to designing this irrigation system. On the basis of experimental verification of the reliability of the HYDR...

Vertical line source irrigation (VLSI) is an underground irrigation method suitable for deep-rooted plants. Understanding the characteristics of the soil wetting body of the VLSI was the key to designing this irrigation system. On the basis of experimental verification of the reliability of the HYDRUS simulation results of VLSI under the conditions of soil texture (ST), initial water content (θi), line source buried depth (B), line source diameter (D) and line source length (L), numerical studies of the migration law of the wetting front of VLSI and the distribution characteristics of soil moisture were performed. The wetting front migration (WFM) was mainly influenced by ST, θi, D and L (P < 0.05), while B had little effect on WFM (P > 0.05). The shape of the soil wetting body changed little under different influencing factors. The water content contour was approximately ‘ellipsoidal’ around the line source. The soil moisture near the line source was close to the saturated moisture content. The moisture content around the line source gradually decreased outward, and the contour lines gradually became dense. According to the simulation results, a prediction model of multiple factors influencing the migration process of the VLSI wetting front was established.

Based on HYDRUS-2D, a multi-factor prediction model was established for the wet front migration process in vertical source irrigation.;
The validity of the model was verified by experimental data, and the prediction effect was good.;
Numerical studies of the migration law of the wetting front of the vertical line source irrigation and the distribution characteristics of soil moisture were performed.;
The wetting front migration was mainly influenced by soil texture, initial water content, line source diameter and line source length (P < 0.05), while line source buried depth had little effect on it (P > 0.05).;
The shapes of the contours of soil moisture content were slightly different, and were all approximate 'ellipsoids' with the axis of the line source.; |
