Abstract
Seepage hazards in dams remain a critical issue in flood control engineering. The pseudo-flow field method has shown high efficacy in detecting seepage points within dam structures. This paper delves into the core characteristics of the pseudo-flow field method, aiming to accelerate its detection speed in practical engineering contexts. By employing the Laplace equation for electric current, we established a numerical model to simulate the method's application in real-world scenarios. The simulation reveals the key characteristics of potential and current density distributions along measuring lines within the pseudo-flow field. Both horizontal and vertical measuring lines show a peak distribution of current density and potential near the seepage point, gradually diminishing towards the periphery. Conversely, vertical measuring lines further from the seepage point exhibit minimal changes, presenting a uniform distribution of current density and potential. The results confirm that the pseudo-flow field method can effectively detect seepage locations and that strategic placement of measuring lines can markedly improve detection speed.
