3.3 Rainfall Simulators with Spouts or Sprayers
37
Fig. 3.1 A rainfall simulator with downward-spraying spouts (Xu et al. 2006b). The simulator was
appropriate for laboratory experiments with good controllability, stable performance and ease of
operation. The rainfall area was 3.5 m × 2.5 m
Fig. 3.2 A spout-type rainfall simulator with upward orifices (Xue 2007). Raindrops spouted
obliquely upwards, hit the stream breaker, and then spread around the ground
