General Tab

 

 

On the General tab the Darcy velocity of 0.02 m/a can be specified. The run parameters for this model are specified at the bottom of this tab where the parameters for searching for the maximum concentration can be specified.

 

 

Layers Tab

 

 

The layer data for the two layers can be specified on the Layers tab. The first layer in this model is a compacted clay with no fractures. The second layer is a fractured till with 2 dimensional fractures. When this layer is selected the parameters for the two sets of fractures can be specified. The x and y directions for a 2-dimensional fracture system refer to two sets of vertical fractures which are approximately perpendicular to each other. Fracture opening size is the gap between the walls of the fractures in m for metric units.

 

 

Boundaries Tab

 

 

The boundary conditions for the model are the can be specified on the Boundaries tab. In this example, the top boundary has a finite mass and the bottom boundary is represented as an aquifer with a fixed outflow velocity.
