New Approach for Approximation of Dispersivity in Porous Media
This paper presents a simple yet powerful original approach for approximating dispersivity in porous media. The key to this approach is both use of least-squares criterion and image processing technique. Two dimensional transparent models, including horizontal and vertical configurations, under different combinations of grain sizes and pore velocities, experimented. Concentration data were obta...
متن کاملStochastic analysis of steady-state unsaturated flow in heterogeneous media: Comparison of the Brooks-Corey and Gardner-Russo models
Existing stochastic models of unsaturated flow and transport are usually developed using the simple Gardner-Russo constitutive relationship though it is generally accepted that the more complex van Genuchten and Brooks-Corey relationships may perform better in describing experimental data. In this paper, we develop first-order stochastic models for gravity-dominated flow in second-order station...
متن کاملAnalytical solutions to steady state unsaturated flow in layered, randomly heterogeneous soils via Kirchhoff transformation
In this study, we derive analytical solutions of the first two moments (mean and variance) of pressure head for one-dimensional steady state unsaturated flow in a randomly heterogeneous layered soil column under random boundary conditions. We first linearize the steady state unsaturated flow equations by Kirchhoff transformation and solve the moments of the transformed variable up to second ord...

متن کاملNumerical evaluation of solute dispersion and dilution in unsaturated heterogeneous media
[1] We investigate flow and solute transport in a heterogeneous unsaturated soil under gravity-driven flow conditions using a direct simulation Monte Carlo method. We account for the cross correlation between the heterogeneous fields of unsaturated flow parameters representing a silty loam. We determine through particle tracking the statistical moments of the travel time distribution for nonpoi...
