其他摘要 | 【Objective】Hydraulic characteristics of shallow flow are essential to elucidating
mechanisms of soil erosion and sediment yield on the slope. However, most of the studies in this as-
pect have been reported on slopes less than 25°in gradient. This paper is oriented to study hydraulic
characteristics of steep loess slopes(25°~50°), in an attempt to lay down a foundation for elu-
cidating in-depth relationships of the hydraulic characteristics of shallow water flow on slopes with
slope soil erosion.【Method】An indoor experiment was carried out simulating rainfalls on steep loess
slopes. The experiment was designed to have only one soil type(loessal soil), three rainfall intensity
(1.0 mm min -1 , 1.5 mm min -1 and 2.0 mm min -1 )and six slope gradient(25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45° and
50°)with the aid of perforated metal flumes(3 m in length, 1 m in width and 0.30 m in depth). Runoff,
sediment and flow velocity on the slopes were observed, relative to rainfall intensity and slope gradient.
【Result】Results show:(1)Flow velocity increased with rising rainfall intensity on slopes the same in
gradient, and under the same rainfall intensity, the effect of slope gradient on flow velocity exhibited a crit-
ical point in gradient, that is, between 40°and 45°under the same rainfall intensity. On slopes with gradient
lower than the critical point, flow velocity increased with rising slope gradient, whereas on slopes with gra-
dient higher than the point, flow velocity decreased with rising slope gradient. (2) Mean runoff depth in-
creased steadily with rising rainfall intensity on all slopes regardless of gradient; but decreased with rising
slope gradient under rainfalls the same in intensity. (3) Reynolds numbers of steep loess slopes were on
the whole relatively small, often far below 580. In this study shallow flows on slopes were of laminar flow
in destabilized layers, while shallow flows with Froude number beyond 0.8 were of rush. And (4) Dar-
cy-Weisbach resistance coefficient (f) was positively related to rainfall intensity and negatively to slope
gradient. 【Conclusion】Rainfall intensity, slope gradient and interactions between these two factors all
have significant effects on hydrodynamic parameters (p<0.01) of shallow flow on steep slopes, but flow
velocity, Froude number and Darcy-Weisbach resistance of the shallow flow varied mainly with slope gradi-
ent, while runoff depth and Reynolds number did mainly with rainfall intensity. |
