Device for measuring of saturated hydraulic conductivity of unsaturated porous media

摘要

The present invention relates to a device for measuring saturated hydraulic conductivity of an unsaturated zone and, more specifically, is configured to easily measure the vertical hydraulic conductivity of the subsurface by applying Darcy′s Law. Specifically, since the present invention enables the simple measurement of the hydraulic conductivity of soil constituting the ground in the field, it helps to measure a precise hydraulic conductivity of a sedimentary layer in nature and to easily comprehend the hydrological characteristics of soil. Accordingly, the present allows the acquisition of information for groundwater development and information to grasp the contaminant diffusion process in the subsurface. In addition, since the present invention has a simple structure easy to install and manage, it has an advantage of effectively performing a subsurface structure survey of a specific area. Accordingly, the present invention has improved reliability and competitiveness in the field of civil engineering, geological survey, groundwater development, the prevention of soil contamination, and related fields derived from the foregoing.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2016
