Abstract: Furrow infiltration interference results from the merging of the wetting plumes of neighboring furrows and reduces infiltration rates. Simulation models and computational procedures used to analyze furrow irrigation flows ...

Abstract: A solute transport model has been added to the WinSRFR surface irrigation software package. The model uses advective-dispersive principles to predict the flow of solute with the irrigation stream and its final longitudinal ...

Abstract: The design of tailwater recovery system design for furrow irrigation was examined. The analysis expands on procedures developed by previous authors and aims to account for the operation and performance of the irrigation ...

Abstract: This study developed a one-dimensional numerical model for the simulation of unsteady flow and the resultant soil erosion in irrigation furrows. The model solves a modified version of the Saint-Venant equations that consider ...

Abstract: Field properties—topography, hydraulic resistance, and infiltration—play an important role in the performance of surface irrigation systems, and appropriate characterizations of these are required as data input to simulation ...

Abstract: Advanced mathematical models of surface irrigation use the equations of motion applied to a series of cells comprising the surface stream and an infiltration profile. In the simulation, a mass balance must be preserved ...

Abstract: Some two dozen methods for estimating infiltration and roughness parameters from field measurements of test irrigations are reviewed in this paper. They differ in their assumptions, ease of analysis, quantity of field data ...

Abstract: Field tests were conducted to obtain irrigation evaluation and solute transport data. The data were used to calibrate and validate an advection-dispersion model for furrow irrigation. The empirical infiltration equation ...
