    The objective of this paper is to offer some theoretics for water-saving irrigation and scientific management of the corn in arid and semi-arid regions by studying the characteristics of sap flow during corn growing season under different weather conditions.In this research, the sap flow rate of corn and the ambient environmental factors are observed by the packaged sap flow probe and minitype auto-meteorological station.According to the experimental records,three most typical weather conditions are gathered to analyze the changing trends of the corn sap flow and the relationship between corn sap flow and the environmental factors.On the whole, the results show that the diurnal variation of corn sap flow presents same changing trends(a curve with more than one peak) on different weather conditions.However,they have their own characteristics.The changing trend is the result of comprehensive effects of environmental factors.There is a significant linear relationship between corn sap flow and environmental factors.The main environmental factors which impact sap flow are different on various weather conditions.It is also found that PAR Light is the dominant factor affecting the sap flow under all the three weather conditions. The water consumption of corn sap flow declines in the order of sunny days>cloudy days>rainy days.

    In this paper, annual dynamic change of groundwater, water quality distribution and groundwater exploitation for irrigation were studied for Hao Qing river basin in Dalate Banner by monitoring of the level, quality of ground water and surveying of agricultural water use. And the research results provide rational development plan and efficient usage of groundwater resources. The results show that the groundwater flows from northeast to southwest and recharges to the irrigation area on the south bank of the Yellow River; the groundwater table was rising with inter annual variation of 0.5m~1.5m during the observation period; the water was alkaline with pH value over than 8.5. The mineralization of groundwater in most area is 0.5 ~ 0.9g/l, which can be used for irrigation. The quality of groundwater water gradually deteriorated following the flow direction, EC of the water in downstream irrigation area achieved to 2.6g/l as maximum. It is necessary to consider rational irrigation to prevent soil alkalization. The farmland area here is 1398hm2 and exploitation capacity of groundwater for irrigation is 516 million m3 based on the calculation and analysis with the remote sensing pictures.

    The development process of water resource management is summarized through the legal framework and the management system aspects. It is pointed out that the domestic water resources management goes through three progresses: decentralized step, branch management step and the strict management step. The advantages and disadvantages of the existed eight modes for the water resource management are analyzed. Based on the practice development of the civil water resource management, it is pointed out that the combination mode of the watershed management and administrative management will still be used in the following decades and the management function of the watershed authority should be strengthened. Combined with the Red Line raised in the most stringent water management strategy, the demand management of water resources, covering the whole process of water intaking, water using and water drainage should be adopted.

    According to the objective fact that eutrophication degree of water body belongs to fuzzy concept, an eutrophication evaluation model is explored and is applied in this paper based on fuzzy pattern recognition model proposed by Chen Shouyu. The evaluation model considers total phosphorus (TP), total nitrogen (TN), transparency degree (SD), chlorophyll (Chla) and permanganate index (CODMn) total 5 indicators. A large reservoir for water supply is taken as an object for carrying out the research on eutrophication evaluation based on the monitoring data in the period of 2005-2008. The eutrophication evaluation results show eigenvalues of annual average are respectively 2.8290,2.7177,2.8449 and 2.5354, eigenvalues of flood period are 2.9138,2.7314,2.9717,2.4447,and eigenvalues of non-flood period are 2.7483,2.7125,2.7138,2.6488. The above results show that the reservoir is under transitional stage from mesotrophic and light eutrophication, and the proposed model for eutrophication evaluation is reasonable and satisfactory

    A three dimensional finite element model is established in accordance with a large surface powerhouse in this paper. The natural vibration characteristics of powerhouse structure considering different connection manners between floors and walls is studied. Furthermore, the harmonic responses of the powerhouse structure models under dynamic loads in different calculation schemes are analyzed. According to the results, the vibration responses of superstructure and floors are stronger, and the horizontal vibration displacement of ventilation barrel and floors are greater due to the stiffness decrease of ventilation barrel and floors while the floors are lapped with the walls. In conclusion, it is unfavorable to the powerhouse floors’ anti-vibration.

    In order to meet requirements of hydraulic engineering abrasion resistance for cold areas,effects of fly ash, water-cement radio and HF content on the abrasion-erosion resistance of high performance concrete(HPC) have been studied in this paper. The results show that: when fly ash content from 15% to 25%, the abrasion strength of HPC trend is first and then decreased; HF abrasion agent can significantly improve the abrasion resistance of HPC, but volume is not the bigger the better, there is an optimal dosage; with lower water-cement ratio, the abrasion strength increases, but if the water-cement ratio is too small, it will reduce the abrasion strength.

    In order to quantitatively study the influence of inducer on high-speed pump, numerical method was applied to simulate the flow of the high-speed centrifugal pumps with and without inducer. The pressure fluctuations on volute and radial hydraulic forces on impeller were obtained by numerical simulation of two pump models with and without inducer. By comparing the transient pressure distribution of impeller inlet of high-speed centrifugal pumps with and without inducer, the head produced by inducer increases the pressure of impeller inlet and increases the power of water in impeller, so the cavitation performance is improved and the head of pump is increased, but Efficiency is affected. The analysis results show that the pressure fluctuation is produced by rotor-stator interaction between impeller and volute, and the main frequency of pressure fluctuation is consistent with blade-passing frequency. It would not influence the pressure fluctuation frequency while adding the inducer, but under design and high flow rate working conditions it will increase the pressure fluctuation amplitude. At the design and small flow rate conditions, the radial hydraulic force on impeller of pump with inducer is larger than that without inducer. Mean and maximum of radial force at design condition respectively increase by 15.13% and 18.4%.
