Tortuosity values in Pflotran

[Rahul S]

Hi all,

I am a bit confused with the  TORTUOSITY values.

In the examples for MATERIAL_PROPERTY card in  User's guide,  there are both values T>1 and also T<1.  Just wondering what is the Tortuosity value range to be used in Pflotran, is it the usual  interpretation with T>1 or the inverse interpretation with T<1.

Thanks,

Rahul.

Rahul,

TORTUOSITY in PFLOTRAN is between 0-1. I am unsure why that example in the MATERIAL_PROPERTY card has values above 1.
