Lay a length of leaky hosepipe or
porous pipe in the bottom and seal the far end.
Ohki [2] discussed the laminar incompressible flow in a semi-infinite
porous pipe with expanding and contracting radius in axial direction.
They cover determining the velocity field by conformal mapping methods, calculating flat potential flows by the boundary integral equation method, calculating vortex flows, the behavior of dust particles in the suction range, specific features of air ejected in a perforated duct with a bypass chamber, air ejection in a
porous pipe with linear cross-flow pattern, specific features of air ejection in the elevator handling of grain, and measures for reducing aspiration volumes in the elevator handling of grain.

To water the vegetable garden and new flowerbeds you can't beat
Porous Pipe, which works by weeping out water along its length.
- For recently planted areas, try a
porous pipe, made from reconstituted car tyres.
To examine the effect of eliminating moisture transmission through the
porous pipe materials, the surfaces of one set of VC and FRC pipes were coated with a two-part epoxy resin (40% diluted with solvent; Intergard Ez, Epoxy, En-cap Ac Sealer 4:1).
It comprises 30m of
porous pipe, a tap hose connector and a kit of unions and end fittings.
Add to these a choice of misters and mini-sprinklers and the option of perforated or
porous pipe, and you have great latitude in design.
USE
porous pipe, seep-hose or leaky-pipe buried just beneath the soil surface to keep newly-planted trees and shrubs moist at all times.
SEEPHOSES: Buy a specially-made
porous pipe or make holes in an old hosepipe, attach to your tap or a water butt and lay in the soil.
