Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, the relationships between volumetric water content and evaporation efficiency β of unsaturated sandy soil were discussed based on experimental results. Firstly, the improved experiment method for the moisture exchange speed was proposed, the evaporation efficiency of unsaturated soil were obtained. The characteristics of evaporation efficiency were detail explained. Comparing with the conventional experimental method proposed by Kondo et al. and our proposed experimental method, the effect of the volumetric heat capacity for evaporation efficiency could be observed. A concept model for evaporation efficiency was also proposed. The parameter for evaporation efficiency can be derived from the proposed model using the grain size distribution and void ration. Then, the validity of the concept model was checked comparing with calculation results and experimental results. Finally, the improvements of the concept model were discussed.
