Abstract

Soil temperature was studied in soil columns at steady and unsteady flow conditions at different moisture content rates. Changes in temperature in soil columns were determined both with sensors and mathematical models. AD/DA converter cards and sensors were determined to be sensitive for measuring external heat sources. Thus, AD/DA converter cards and sensors are suitable for utilising in soil temperature studies. Moreover, mathematical models are also determined to be in accordance with measured results.
