Modeling capillary barriers in unsaturated fractured rock
[1] This work presents a series of numerical modeling studies that investigate the hydrogeologic conditions required to form capillary barriers and the effect that capillary barriers have on fluid flow and tracer transport processes in the unsaturated fractured rock of Yucca Mountain, Nevada, a potential site for storing high-level radioactive waste. The modeling approach is based on a dual-con...

متن کاملA triple-continuum approach for modeling flow and transport processes in fractured rock.
This paper presents a triple-continuum conceptual model for simulating flow and transport processes in fractured rock. Field data collected from the unsaturated zone of Yucca Mountain, a repository site of high-level nuclear waste, show a large number of small-scale fractures. The effect of these small fractures has not been considered in previous modeling investigations within the context of a...
متن کاملDiffusion of Water in Thermally Fractured Granite Rock Cores Studied by PFG NMR and MRI
s Diffusion of water in thermally fractured granite was studied by using pulsed field gradient NMR (PFGNMR) and MRI methods. Two different approaches gave consistent results, indicating that these methods can be applied for materials of low porosity with fracture networks.

The objective of this research was to determine the applicability of reactive tracer data obtained from laboratory tests to larger-scale field settings. Laboratory tracer tests were used to quantify transport properties in fractured volcanic ash flow tuff from southern Nevada. In a series of experiments, a pulse containing several ionic tracers was injected into four tuff cores, each containing...
