PoreFlow: A complex pore-network model for simulation of reactive transport in variably saturated porous media
This study introduces PoreFlow, a pore-network modeling tool capable of simulating fluid flow and multi-component reactive and adsorptive transport under saturated and variably saturated conditions. PoreFlow includes a variety of modules, such as: pore network generator, drainage simulator, calculation of pressure and velocity distributions, and modeling of reactive solute transport accounting ...
متن کاملColloid-Facilitated Solute Transport in Variably Saturated Porous Media: Numerical Model and Experimental Verification
Strongly sorbing chemicals (e.g., heavy metals, radionuclides, pharmaceuticals, and explosives) in porous media are associated predominantly with the solid phase, which is commonly assumed to be stationary. However, recent fieldand laboratory-scale observations have shown that in the presence of mobile colloidal particles (e.g., microbes, humic substances, clays, and metal oxides), colloids can...
متن کاملRandom-walk simulation of transport in heterogeneous porous media: Local mass-conservation problem and implementation methods
The random-walk method for simulating solute transport in porous media is typically based on the assumption that the velocity and velocity-dependent dispersion tensor vary smoothly in space. However, in cases where sharp interfaces separate materials with contrasting hydraulic properties, these quantities may be discontinuous. Normally, velocities are interpolated to arbitrary particle location...
متن کاملThree-dimensional analysis of variably-saturated flow and solute transport in discretely-fractured porous media
A discrete fracture, saturated-unsaturated numerical model is developed where the porous matrix is represented in three dimensions and fractures are represented by two-dimensional planes. This allows a fully three-dimensional description of the fracture network connectivity. Solute advection and diffusion in the porous matrix are also directly accounted for. The variably-saturated flow equation...
متن کاملTransport of methane and noble gases during gas push-pull tests in variably saturated porous media.
The gas push-pull test (GPPT) is a single-well gas-tracer method to quantify in situ rates of CH4 oxidation in soils. To improve the design and interpretation of GPPT field experiments, gas component transport during GPPTs was examined in abiotic porous media over a range of water saturations (0.0 < or = Sw < or = 0.61). A series of GPPTs using He, Ne, and Ar as tracers for CH4 were performed a...
