Infiltration

Infiltration
Movement of water into the soil
Water moves through old root channels, animal burrows,
Water moves through spaces and between soil blocks (FAST)
between soil particles (SLOW)
INFILTRATION RATE
CAPACITY
Definition max. rate in absorb water
at a certain type of soil and in a given
time.
Unit in cm/h or mm/h. Note :-
Two condition exists :- f= rate of infiltration
i = Rainfall intensity over the
1. f = fc when i ≥ fc time

2. Soil surface
If covered by grass or other
vegetation high infiltration
3. Fluid characteristics
Turbidity if will block pores in soil
reduce fc
Contamination if reduce fc

HORTON MODEL
Whereby :-
f = Infiltration capacity (depth/time) at a given time (mm/hr or cm/hr)
k = Decay constant which is representing the rate of decrease in f
capacity
fc = Asymptotic/ constant infiltration rate (t )
fo = Initial infiltration capacity, t = 0
t = time
