Streamline-based simulation of virus transport resulting from long term artificial recharge in a heterogeneous aquifer
The likelihood for viruses, protozoan oocysts, and other human pathogens to enter groundwater, and in particular, sensitive or vulnerable water supplies, has increased as the numbers of anthropogenic sources such as septic systems, leaking sewers, animal farming operations, and artificial recharge of treated wastewater have proliferated. In this paper, we utilize a detailed numerical model of g...
متن کاملStreamline Based Flow Simulation
23 Although reservoir flow simulation is a mature technology, there is a general lack of understanding in the oil and gas industry as to when it should be applied, the limitations of it and how recent technical improvements have changed simulation. Streamline models have dramatically changed simulation work and made predictions better. Simple workflow and quality control issues are absolutely c...
متن کاملSolute Transport in Heterogeneous Porous Media
Solute mass transport in porous media is strongly correlated with pore fluid flow. The analysis of solute transport is an effective means for studying medium heterogeneities. In this study, we discuss the effects of heterogeneity on the tracer transport. Assuming steady fluid flow, we have simulated tracer transport in various permeability heterogeneities. The results show that the tracer distr...
متن کاملProbabilistic Characterization of Transport in Heterogeneous Media
The mechanics of transport and ow in a random porous medium are addressed in this paper. The hydraulic properties of the porous medium are modeled as spatial random processes. The random aspect of the problem is treated by introducing a new dimension along which spectral approximations are implemented. Thus, the hydraulic processes are discretized using the spectral Karhunen-Loeve expansion. Th...
متن کاملAnomalous drift of spiral waves in heterogeneous excitable media.
We study the drift of spiral waves in a simple model of heterogeneous excitable medium, having gradients in the distribution of ion-channel expression or cellular coupling. We report the anomalous drift of spiral waves toward regions having shorter period or stronger coupling, in reaction-diffusion models of excitable media. Such anomalous drift can promote the onset of complex spatiotemporal p...
