Air and water flows in a vertical sand column

Air and water flows in a vertical sand column

[1] The unsteady state drainage of water from a vertical sand column with and without a finer layer on the top was studied theoretically and experimentally to investigate the airflow generated by the finer layer. The sand column, saturated at its lower portion and initially in the condition of hydrostatic equilibrium, is drained at its bottom at constant head. The results show that significant ...

Air and water flows in a large sand box with a two-layer aquifer system

The pumping of water from a sand box with a finer layer on the top was studied theoretically and experimentally. The sand box, saturated at its lower portion and initially in hydrostatic equilibrium, was pumped at constant rate. The results show that significant negative air pressure can be generated in the vadose zone during pumping. The negative air pressure increases quickly in the earlier s...
