Concentration dependent transport of colloids in saturated porous media.
A series of column experiments was undertaken to explore the influence of colloid input concentration (2, 1, 0.5, and 0.25 times a reference concentration), colloid size (negatively charged 3.2 and 1.0 microm carboxyl latex), and sand grain size (360, 240, and 150 microm quartz sands) on transport and deposition. A similar mass of stable mono-dispersed colloids was added to each column. For a g...
متن کاملA Tvd Method for Contaminant Transport in Porous Media
The objective of this work is to present a numerical study of contaminant migration in saturated porous media. For this purpose, the advection-difussion equation describing the evolution of contaminant plumes in a vertical cross section of an aquifer is discretized employing a Total Variation Diminishing method (TVD), which provides an efficient way to eliminate spurious numerical oscillations ...
متن کاملCoupled Consolidation and Contaminant Transport in Compressible Porous Media
This paper presents an experimental and computational investigation of coupled consolidation and contaminant transport in compressible porous media. Numerical simulations were performed using the CST2 computational model in which a dual-Lagrangian framework is used to separately follow the motions of fluid and solid phases during consolidation. Diffusion and large strain consolidation tests wer...
متن کاملRandom walk calculations for bacterial migration in porous media.
Bacterial migration is important in understanding many practical problems ranging from disease pathogenesis to the bioremediation of hazardous waste in the environment. Our laboratory has been successful in quantifying bacterial migration in fluid media through experiment and the use of population balance equations and cellular level simulations that incorporate parameters based on a fundamenta...
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...
