Numerical Simulation and Estimation of the Transvers Macrodispersivity Coefficient of Aqueous Phase (Miscible) Contaminants of Salt Water in a Heterogeneous and Homogeneous Porous Media
Deterioration of groundwater resources in coastal regions due to the progression of saline water in aquifers in these regions is currently one of the important issues in providing water needs in these areas. In coastal regions, saline water enters the aquifer from below in shape of wedge. Due to the difference in the density between fresh and salty water, an interface zone forms between two flu...
متن کاملMixing at the interface between fresh and salt waters in 3D steady flow with application to a pumping well in a coastal aquifer
We consider 3D steady flow of fresh water over a salt water body in a confined aquifer of constant thickness D, with application to a pumping well in a coastal aquifer. With neglect of mixing, a sharp interface separates the two fluid bodies and an existing analytical solution, based on the Dupuit assumption, is adopted. The aim is to solve for the mixing between the fresh and salt waters for a...
متن کاملMixing at the interface between two fluids in aquifer well upconing steady flow
[1] Because of transverse pore-scale dispersion, a mixing layer develops along the interface between a lighter fluid (fresh water) that flows toward a well or sink above a heavier fluid (seawater) in a steady axisymmetric configuration. The Peclet number characterizing mixing, Pe = L/aT, where L is the aquifer thickness and aT is transverse dispersivity, is generally much larger than unity. The...
متن کاملValidation of SUTRA Model for Different Salinity Transport Scenarios in a Heterogeneous Sand Tank to Evaluate Transverse Dispersivity
Nowadays, with the increasing population in Iran, especially in arid and semi-arid areas, as a result of the growing importance of the quality of water resources, including groundwater, field experiments and many simulations have been conducted for the development of groundwater contamination through powerful and up- to- date software. However, in most cases, there is a tangible difference betw...
متن کاملA novel approach for characterizing the mixing zone of a saltwater wedge
[1] The mixing zone between freshwater and seawater in a coastal aquifer is an important transition region that controls regional groundwater flow dynamics and reactive transport processes. While experimental procedures have been developed to study the movement of salt wedges in aquifers, so far no one has attempted to exclusivelymap themixing zone associated with the wedge in a laboratory-scal...
