Description

A mathematical formulation is presented for describing the transport of air, water, NAPL, and energy through porous media. The development follows a continuum mechanics approach. The theory assumes the existence of various average macroscopic variables which describe the state of the system. Balance equations for mass and energy are formulated in terms of these macroscopic variables. The system is supplemented with constitutive equations relating fluxes to the state variables, and with transport property specifications. Specification of phase equilibrium criteria, various mixing rules and thermodynamic relations completes the system of equations. A numerical simulation scheme based on finite-differences is described.
