Modeling Agricultural Drainage Hydraulic Nets

Abstract

Luis Gurovich1* and Patricio Oyarce2

A review on mathematical models available in the literature to design and evaluate agricultural drainage hydraulic nets is presented, including open ditch and buried pipe alternatives, for steady state and no steady state soil water flows, homogeneous and stratified soil profiles and smooth and corrugated drainage pipes.

Effective drainage pipe radius effects on drainage performance is considered, based on its perforation density and distribution, as it affects pipe weight bearing strength and pipe deformation intensity. Also, quantitative considerations on perforation density upon water flow resistance into the drain pipe are analyzed.
