GENERATION OF TRANSPORT PATHS IN FRACTURED POROUS MEDIA

SUMMARY

In this article, a method for generation of transport paths in combined equivalent porous media / discrete fracture network computational meshes is proposed as an alternative to a particle tracking method. It is based on a computation of the functional of the velocity and concentration individually for each element of a mesh. Its functionality is demonstrated on two test cases.
