In order to accurately calculate the hydrodynamic parameters of the slope rill at any point during the erosion process, and to avoid errors caused by using the average flow rate to calculate the hydrodynamic parameters in the traditional method. Based on the variability and complexity of the development process of slope rills, as well as the characteristics of water sand two-phase flow, the Euler-Euler two-phase flow model was used to calculate and analyze the morphological evolution characteristics and erosion mechanisms of slope rills at different stages of expansion erosion. The results show that the Euler-Euler two-phase flow model can accurately describe the morphology evolution process of slope rill in expanded erosion. Based on the morphology evolution characteristics of slope rill at different stages of expanded erosion, the expanded erosion of slope rill is divided into the period when the rill sidewall is slightly spreading and eroding (the early stage), the period when the expanded erosion become severe with a significant increase in the number and area of amalgamated arcs (the middle stage), and the period when the expanded erosion basically ceased and the rill morphology stabilized (the late stage). The influential factors of slope gradient, initial flow rate, and preset rill width on the Darcy-Weisbach resistance coefficient, Reynolds number, and real-time flow rate are significant. Optimal characterization parameters for different stages of slope rill development, such as erosion arc length and hydraulic radius, are proposed, aiding in determining the specific period of slope rill development and predicting the development trend of rill morphology through changes in these parameters. The research results provide a theoretical basis for soil erosion control measures and are of great significance for soil and water conservation.
