Abstract: |
We
present here the way to bring together two open source modellers,
PhreeqC and Elmer, with disjunctive application
fields. They are gathered in a single environment to enable multi-component,
reactive solute transport studies in three- dimensional saturated/
unsaturated ground-water flow systems. The choice of Python as programming
environment is explained, the way the tools become so called Python modules
is presented. Based on Open Source, it enables the study of natural and
contaminated ground-water flow systems at a variety of scales ranging from
laboratory experiments to local and regional field scales. Two illustrative examples are
given. The first one is considering dissolution/precipitation phenomena in
the near field of a geothermal injection well. The second study is
considering at a laboratory scale the interaction of a CO2 brine with a Calcite plug, that one is directly issued from the
CO2 application field. |
