Comparison of Water Content-Pressure Head Data Obtained by Equilibrium, Steady-State, and Unsteady-State Methods
1967
Topp, G. C. | Klute, A. | Peters, D. B.
The water content-pressure head relationship for a small, well-confined, rectangular sample of fine sand was obtained under different water flow conditions. Water contents were measured by a gamma system and pressure heads were measured by a tensiometer-pressure transducer combination. During drying, more water was retained in the sand at a given pressure head in the unsteady flow case than in the static equilibrium and steady-state cases, which agreed with each other.
