PetraSim
PetraSim is the graphical interface for the TOUGH2 family of simulators. Developed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, TOUGH2 and its derivatives are recognized for their powerful simulation capabilities for fluid flow and heat transfer in porous and fractured media.
Description
Features
Description
Applications for PetraSim and the simulators it supports include:
- Coupled process modeling (thermal, hydrologic, chemical, mechanical, biological)
- Carbon sequestration and other types of injection.
- Performance assessment of nuclear waste repositories.
- Geothermal reservoir studies.
- Vadose zone hydrology.
Features
With Adaptive Groundwater you can:
- Quickly create three-dimensional flow and transport models
- Significantly reduce model development cost
- Develop very large, high-resolution regional models
- More accurately and efficiently compute hydraulic head and solute concentration solutions (grid refinement is automatically added in regions of high head and/or concentration gradients)
- Quickly change the grid resolution by simply varying the number of AMR levels
- Accurately simulate thin and highly-stratified plumes (the higher-order Eulerian-Lagrangian transport solution significantly reduces numerical dispersion)
- Take advantage of multiple-core processors
- Use much larger time steps when simulating advection-dominated transport
- Reduce computational effort (the simulation time step is automatically adjusted based on the velocity field and cell sizes
- Visually monitor simulation progress during model runs
