Nuclide migration from areal sources into a fracture

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

This document shows analytic solutions to the problem of hydrogeologic transport of radionuclides released from finite areal sources into a planar fracture. It illustrates the solutions through numerical and graphical displays of the spatial and temporal distribution of the radionuclides as a result of advection in the fracture, transverse dispersion and surface sorption, as well as diffusion into and sorption in the rock matrix. The numerical illustrations indicate that sufficient distances away from the sources equivalent single sources give acceptable approximations. 2 refs., 3 figs.
