Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers laboratory measurement of bothflux and hyd

3、raulic conductivity (also referred to as coeffcientof permeability) of geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) specimenspermeated with chemical solutions and leachates utilizing aflexible wall permeameter. For test measurement of indexhydraulic properties of geosynthetic clay liners, refer to TestMethod D5887

4、.1.2 This test method may be utilized with GCL specimensthat have a hydraulic conductivity less than or equal to 1 10-5 m/s (1 10-3cm/s).1.3 This test method is applicable to GCL products havinggeotextile backing(s). It is not applicable to GCLproducts withgeomembrane backing(s), geofilm backing(s)

5、or polymer coat-ing backing(s).1.4 This test method provides measurements of flux andhydraulic conductivity under a prescribed set of conditions, asan index test, that can be used for manufacturing qualitycontrol. The flux and hydraulic conductivity values determinedusing this test method under the

6、prescribed set of conditions isnot considered to be representative of the in-service conditionsof GCLs. However, the test method allows the requester toestablish a set of test conditions; thus, the test method also maybe used to check performance or conformance, or both.1.5 The values stated in SI u

7、nits are to be regarded as thestandard, unless other units are specifically given. By traditionin U.S. practice, hydraulic conductivity is reported in centime-ters per second, although the common SI units for hydraulicconductivity are meters per second.1.6 This standard does not purport to address a

8、ll of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use4.1 This test method applies to one-dimensional, laminarflow of water or other aqueous solutions, such as chemicalsolutions, landfill leachate, and contaminat

18、ed water (here onreferred to as test liquid), through saturated/hydrated GCLspecimen that is consolidated and permeated under a pre-scribed or requested set of conditions.4.2 This test method can be performed to determine if theflux and/or hydraulic conductivity of a GCL specimen exceedsthe maximum

19、value stated by the manufacturer or required bythe regulatory agencies, or both.4.3 It is assumed that Darcys law is valid and that thehydraulic conductivity is essentially unaffected by hydraulicgradient. The validity of Darcys law may be evaluated bymeasuring the hydraulic conductivity of the spec

20、imen at threedifferent hydraulic gradients; if all measured values are similar(within about 25 %), then Darcys law may be taken as valid.However, when the hydraulic gradient acting on a test speci-men is changed, the state of stress will also change, and, if thespecimen is compressible, the volume o

21、f the specimen willchange. Thus, some change in hydraulic conductivity mayoccur when the hydraulic gradient is altered, even in caseswhere Darcys law is valid.4.4 This test method provides tools for determining flux andhydraulic conductivity values for a given GCL under thefollowing two different sc

22、enarios, which should be specified bythe requester:4.4.1 Scenario 1Hydrated/Saturated with Water Prior toContact with Test LiquidThis scenario simulates the fieldconditions where the GCL is well hydrated with water prior tocontact with actual test liquid. It should be noted that initialdegree of sat

23、uration/hydration greatly affects the hydraulicproperties of a GCL product. The test has two phases: (Phase1) hydrate, saturate, consolidate and permeate with water asTest Liquid 1, and (Phase 2) switch to permeation with testliquid as Test Liquid 2.4.4.2 Scenario 2Hydrated/Saturated with Test Liqui

24、d(Worst Case)This scenario simulates the field conditionswhere the GCLis in contact with test liquid prior to being fullyhydrated with water. It should be noted that this scenario mayresult in higher flux and hydraulic conductivity values com-pared to Scenario 1 as chemicals present in test liquid m

25、ay alterthe hydration and hydraulic properties of a GCL product.4.5 The apparatus used in this test method is commonlyused to determine the hydraulic conductivity of soil specimens.However, flux values measured in this test are typically muchlower than those commonly measured for most natural soils.

26、 Itis essential that the leakage rate of the apparatus in this test beless than 10 % of the flux.5.

In addition, thehead loss across the tests specimen must be held constant towithin 65 % and shall be measured with the same accuracy orbetter. Pressures shall be measured by a pressure gage

29、, elec-tronic pressure transducer, or any other device of suitableaccuracy.5.2.2 Falling Head (Methods B and C) The system shallallow for measurement of the applied head loss, thus hydraulicgradient, to within 65 %. In addition, the ratio of initial headloss divided by final head loss over an interv

The head loss shall be measured with a pressure gage,electronic pressure transducer, engineers scale, graduatedpipette, or any other device of suitable accuracy. Falling headtests may be performed with either a fall

Flow volumes shall be measured by agraduated accumulator, graduated pipette, vertical standpipe inconjunction with an electronic pressure transducer, or othervolume-measuring device of suitabl

Rigidtubing, such as metallic or rigid thermoplastic tubing, shall beused.5.3.3 Head LossesHead losses in the tubes, valves, porousend pieces, and filter paper may lead to error. To guard againstsuch errors, the

41、 permeameter shall be assembled with nospecimen inside and then the hydraulic system filled. If aconstant or falling head test is to be used, the hydraulicpressures or heads that will be used in testing a specimen shallbe applied, and the rate of flow measured with an accuracy of5 % or better.This r

42、ate of flow shall be at least ten times greaterthan the rate of flow that is measured when a GCL specimen isplaced inside the permeameter and the same hydraulic pres-sures or heads are applied. If a constant rate of flow test is tobe used, the rate of flow to be used in testing a specimen shallbe su

43、pplied to the permeameter and the head loss measured.The head loss without a specimen shall be less than 0.1 timesthe head loss when a GCL specimen is present.5.4 Permeant Interface Device (Bladder Accumulator) Apermeant interface device shall be used when a hazardous/corrosive or volatile test liqu

The permeant interface device shall contain the testliquid in a closed chamber and allow neither possible contami-nation of flow measurement and pressure systems nor potentialrelease of chemicals present in the test liquid to the breathingair, while maintai

The device consist of mainly a water chamber and a testliquid chamber, which are separated with a flexible bladdermembrane. The device should be checked for leaks at thedesired test pressure

However, the effective stress

48、aired water, with the upper part ofthe reservoir connected to a compressed gas supply or othersource of pressure (see Note 2). The gas pressure shall becontrolled by a pressure regulator and measured by a pressuregage, electronic pressure transducer, or any other devicecapable of measuring to the pr
