The estimated characteristics of water seepage in a the vadose zone have been determined using analytical formulae based on the Carman-Kozeny capillary beam model. Only two standard soil parameters are needed to achieve this objective: hydraulic conductivity and porosity. The characteristics obtained find their application in a simplified description of infiltration known as the piston model.
