EFAS 地表水流量设备

The Ground Water Flow Unit, "EFAS", is composed of a test tank that will be filled with fine grave or sand to construct to develop different models. The entry of water into the tank is done through two inlets, each of them located at each end. The flow of each water inlet is controlled by a membrane valve, which is easily accessible for the user. Inlets end inside the tank in a diffuser shape to affect the least possible the created model.

In the base of the test tank there are two wells simmetrically located. The wells outlets, located at the bottom part of the tank, have a membrane valve, that allows the regulation of the outletflows. Well have a spillway in their upper partto avoid floods.

The unit includes nineteen tappings in the base of the test tank, configured in cross shape . Pressure of the nineteen tappings can be seen in two manometers panels. The tappings have a sediments picking system to avoid them to reach the measuring elements. Under each tapping there is a plug which has to be removed regularly to extract the sand accumulated in it.

This unit is supplied with three accessories that make it easy the construction of the different models object of study:

• Model for a lake construction.
• Model for an excavation construction.
• Model for a confined aquifer construction.

In addition to the demonstrations and exercises proposed (see "Exercises and Practical Possibilities" section), instructors andstudents may contrutfurther model situations for study.
