| description | Recession flow in a large field can be significant from the point of view of water-use efficiency. This is particularly
important in the case where the furrow field is long, thus the receding flow can contribute to the irrigation of crops.
Indeed, recession flow is very significant in the surge method of furrow irrigation. In the continuous mode of
operation in very long furrows the amount of recession flow can be significant. Herein is presented the mathematical
modelling of the recession flow. The analytical procedure is based on the kinematic wave approach used for the
simulation of the advance-flow trajectory for furrows. This resulting recession simulation was found to be very useful
for the evaluation of the basic infiltration rate in a furrow. |
