英文摘要 | In the headcut erosion process, flow energy is transformed and consumed when runoff is used to transport sediment. Therefore, flow energy variations are critical in the study of headcut erosion. The aim of this study was to illustrate the effects of the upslope inflow discharge and slope gradient on flow energy and the response of the sediment yield of headcut erosion to flow energy variations in China's Loess Plateau. This study examined the headcut erosion using slope gradients ranging from 1 degrees to 7 degrees and designed and upslope inflow discharges of 3.6, 4.8, 6.0 and 7.2 m(3).h(-1). The rainfall intensity was set as invariable 0.8 mm.min(-1). The results showed that the kinetic energy at the downstream gully bed was 0.03 similar to 0.16 J.s(-1) lower than that in the upstream catchment area because of the concentrated flow drop at the gully head. The potential energy at the summit and bottom of the plot were both affected by upstream inflow discharge and slope gradient. The flow energy consumption values of the gully head increased by approximately 1.26 times as the inflow discharge increased by 1.2 m(3).h(-1). Greater energy consumption occurred at the gully head than in the upstream catchment area and downstream gully bed, and the gully head contribution to the flow energy consumption was 44.30 similar to 64.29%, which showed an increasing trend as the upslope inflow discharge increased and slope gradient decreased. The influence of the slope gradient on the sediment yield was stronger than that of the upslope inflow discharge, and a nonlinear regression equation was established to calculate the sediment yield. The flow energy consumption showed a significant correlation with the sediment yield (p < 0.01). Our results could enhance the understanding of the flow energy variations and headcut evolution process during headcut erosion and can also be helpful in the design of gully erosion prevention measures. |
