WLS Report 49-2: Rainfall simulations for testing the comparability of the sprinkler systems of FBVA Innsbruck and the Institute WLS, BOKU Vienna, on behalf of the BMLFUW
Abstract
In order to describe the hydrologic reaction of an area as part of a water-management planning in a default watershed, accompanying rainfall simulators are used beside standard calculation more and more often. They both provide integrative information about the discharge taking place on a sample plot, and can be used for extrapolations of the discharge reaction which can be expected in the event of heavy rainfall. It is often possible to transfer the results of the rainfall simulation to similarly structured soils, especially in those cases where the most important processes can be quantified more accurately by simulation calculations. The sprinkler system of the Federal Forest Research Centre Innsbruck (FBVA) differs greatly in its construction principle from the system of the WLS, whereby differences in results due to different systems are imaginable. Thus, both types of installations should be compared, so that one will be able to interpret the results better. In doing this, the following aims are pursued: System comparison of the experimental equipment of WLS and FBVA Compatibility investigations of rainfall-simulation results scaling factors in hydrologic calculations.
