    In order to explore the water-saving irrigation system of sugarcane under drip irrigation method, three main sugarcane areas were selected to carry out field experiment which were located in south, middle and north Guangxi respectively, observing and analyzing irrigation norm under different irrigation system to select to optimal one. The results showed that there is a little irrigation frequency for sugarcane stages in germination, seedling and maturation to meet the needs of its growth. However, it needs irrigate nine to fourteen times to meet the water requirement of sugarcane during the elongating stage. The area of highest average irrigation norm was north Guangxi, followed by middle Guangxi, and south Guangxi was the lowest area of irrigation norm. The average irrigation norm under three kinds of irrigation assurance was 1547m3/hm2, 1806m3/hm2 and 1963m3/hm2 for south, middle and north Guangxi respectively.

    We collected surface water and ground water samples from the agricultural areas of the mountainous regions in northern Guizhou Province and measured the major ions. The results show that all surface waters are neutral and mildly alkaline except the water in Damaopo Mountain which appears to be faintly acid,the same as all ground water samples. With decreasing elevation,the ion concentrations are found to increase considerably in the study region. According to the Arliekin’s classification,in the water of Dawodang and the top of Damaopo Mountain,Ca2+ accounts for 75.3% of the total major cations,HCO3- accounts for 57.9% of the total major anions,whose hydro-chemistry type is [S]CaⅡ.By contrast,among the water in Houcaoding and gully streams of Damaopo Mountain,HCO3- accounts for 53.4% of the total major anions,Ca2+ accounts for 76.7% of the total major cations,whose hydro-chemistry type is [C]CaⅠ,The magnitude relationship of cation concentrations in the researched area is Ca2+>Na+>Mg2+.According to source study of major ions through Gibbs boomerang envelope,the chemical compositions of the waters in the study region are controlled by rock weathering and dissolving. In addition,the concentration of Ca2+ and Na+ in cultivation areas will be impacted by ion exchange in surface soil,the atmospheric input and the disturbance of human activities. The concentration of K+、Cl-、NO3- increased significantly .As the way of land use conversion,the contribution values of agricultural activities on water ion concentration increased.

    Numerical simulations on the three-dimensional turbulent cavitation flow for a low specific speed centrifugal pump model that the impeller has three programs whose blade number were 3 long blades, 3/3 splitter blades and 6 long blades were conducted. External characteristic curves and head performance of cavitation were included. The result show that the less blades the impeller had, the faster head declined with NPSH reducing in fully developed cavitation. With the reducing of blade number, impeller inlet low-pressure area is reduced, and increases the blade load. Using the splitter blade, severe crowding phenomenon in impeller inlet is reduced and cavitation performance is improved. With the increase of blade number, the blade surface load decreases, using the splitter blade, blade surface load curve decline steepening of long blade in the splitter blade inlet. The simulation results better reflect the impact of cavitation in different impeller blades on a centrifugal pump, it laid the theoretical foundation for the study of cavitation characteristics.

    The pump set model was designed and made in order to study the new open type axial pumping station. By experiment, the characteristics of model pump set about five blade angles, NPSHc of three blade angles and runaway characteristics at blade angle of -4° were got. The results prove that the pump set has high efficiency between 1.86m-3.8m of net water-head, its maximum efficiency is as high as 74.4% at blade angle of -4, and the runaway speed is 298.7r/min. Not only its NPSHc is satisfied but also its runway speed is safe during large operating range. The overall pump set energy characteristic and internal flow pattern were analyzed through 3-D turbulent numerical simulation. Compared with experimental data, it reveals that both results have good agreement at design point, and the off-design points have a certain deviation, but the efficiency difference is less than 1.6%. The flow pattern in bell-like inlet is good, but the outlet has two swirls, so the flow pattern in outlet is relatively poor. The optimization design about large drain pumping stations can benefit from the research.

    Abstract:Different stagnant dropping standards are needed for dry crops because of its different root lengths during different growth stages. In order to realize the different stagnant dropping standards, Drainage water level must be controlled reasonably. A new type of sluice which can control the water level of the channel automatically is proposed in this paper. Its function is realized by setting some drain holes in the sluice. The drainage hole’s elevation and aperture is determined by the different stagnant dropping standards and designed rainfall amounts during different growth stages. The only requirement in real application is to adjust hole plugs. The new sluice has many merits as easy designing, ability of the application for the farmland for both flood and dry crops, easy operation, and economical etc. It is believed that its application will not only improve soil moisture in the field, but will also provide a protection to the farmland ecological environment.
