Hi all,
I understand that porosity in PFLOTRAN is used as a material porosity, i.e., a continuum-scale parameter.
However, in the attached input file, the computational domain is not a rock matrix but the fracture mesh itself.
In this case, I would like to ask whether it is appropriate to use fracture porosity and tortuosity (POROSITY = 1.0, TORTUOSITY = 1.0).
In addition, when I run PFLOTRAN with the attached input file, the transient period is very short and the system reaches steady state very quickly.
However, I would like to obtain a much longer transient period and delay the approach to steady state.
In this case, I would appreciate your advice on which parameters in the current input file should be modified first.
Best regards,
sujin
