Abstract:In order to study the process of water movement in soils affected by temperature difference, the indoor sand column simulation experiment was carried. In this paper, there are two groups of different temperature of sand column capillary water rise tests. Through experimental phenomenon and data collected to analyze the change law of aeolian sand rising height of capillary water with time, besides the relationship between rising heights of capillary water with temperature. In addition the movement mechanism of the capillary water rise was discussed. The test results show that, in external condition of the same circumstances, the higher temperature can accelerate the migration rate of the wetted front. However, the local high temperature can inhibit the upward migration of water, but the temperature effect is not obvious.
