Experimental Study of Evaporation Flux, Salt Precipitation, and Surface Temperature on Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Porous Media

Abstract: Salt precipitation in porous media is widespread, which has garnered great research attention. However, the mechanisms governing the salt precipitation, water flux, and surface temperature changes in homogeneous and heterogeneous porous media remain unclear. This study investigated the dynamics of salt precipitation, evaporative loss, and surface temperature in homogeneous fine sand (0.1–0.25 mm), coarse sand (1-2 mm), and a heterogeneous column with fine and coarse sand. All sand columns were initially satura… Show more

“…For progressively drying soils, the first stage of evaporation is a constant evaporation stage that occurs when liquid water reaches the vaporization interface under surface tension, whereas the second stage of evaporation is a rapid decrease stage controlled by water vapour diffusion (Lehmann & Or, 2009; Or et al, 2013; Shokri & Or, 2011). When the subflorescence of Na 2 SO 4 appears, the porosity of the cemented soil particles decreases and the water transport rate is reduced, which shortens the time of the first stage of evaporation, leading to a rapid decrease in the evaporation rate in the second stage of evaporation, water vapour diffusion successively occurs (Li & Guo, 2022; Ruiz‐Agudo et al, 2007). However, the subflorescence layer of the cemented soil still has large porosity and low resistance to water vapour transport (Figure 2b), due to which the evaporation rate is still high during the second stage of evaporation.…”

“…As evaporation shifted to the second stage of water vapour diffusion after salt crystallization covered the soil surface, the inhibition of evaporation by salt crystallization was mainly reflected in the increased resistance to water vapour diffusion (Fujimaki et al, 2006; Li & Guo, 2022; Nachshon, Shahraeeni, et al, 2011). The water vapour diffusion capacity (WVDC) can be expressed by the water vapour diffusion coefficient.…”
