Overview

This is the module in Mohid Land that handles porous media properties, meaning that controls transport (dependent on fluxes computed in porous media) and transformation processes (sediment quality and PREEQC modules that concern to biological and chemical processes in soil respectively). Standard units for Module PorousMediaProperties are mg/L in dissolved properties and mg/kgsoil for adsorbed properties.

Main Processes

Property Transport

In a mass conservation approach the variation of the mass of a property (or water volume) in a volume may change (accumulation in time (rate)) if material enters or exits the volume (trough the faces of the volume) or if there are sources or sinks for the property (degradation, chemical reactions, etc.) inside that volume.

So, the property transport equation in text form:

EqnPropertyTransport Text.png

This "equation" may be written in integral form meaning that the accumulation terms are summed in infinitesimal volumes and the fluxes trough the faces of the volume are summed in infinitesimal areas. These fluxes trough the faces enter with the velocity (transport from other volumes) and because there is diffusion (the property has different concentrations in different volumes and spreads). So the inputs and outputs will create two terms, the first the advection (driven trough velocity) and the second the diffusion (driven trough property gradient).

The property transport equation in integral form:

EqnPropertyTransport Integral.png

where:

Beta is property concentration (M/L^3)
v is velocity (L/T)
Gamma is diffusivity (L^2/T)
dvol and dA are notation from volume integral and surface integral
dt is infinitesimal variation of time

In a finite volume approach the control volume (or cell) has a defined volume and all the properties are homogeneous inside the control volume (and refered to the cell center) and velocities are homogeneous in the faces of the volume (and refered to the face). So the latter equation may be simplified because property, velocity and diffusivity are homogeneous inside control volume or in the faces so they may exit the integral and the various flux directions (3 directions trough 6 faces have to be analyzed).

The property transport equation in "infinitesimal volume" form::

EqnPropertyTransport InifinitesimalVolume.png

where:

Beta is property concentration (M/L^3)
v is velocity (L/T)
Gamma is diffusivity (L^2/T)
Deltaxi is cell spatial step in direction i (m)
dt is infinitesimal variation of time

So to get to the final form we only need to discretize to a finite volume, to its faces and to the different flux directions and to a finite timestep.

The property transport equation in finite volume and one direction:

EqnPropertyTransport FiniteVolume2.png

where:

V is cell volume (m3)
C is cell property concentration (g/m3)
theta is cell water content (m3H2O/m3cell)
Deltat is time step (s)
Q is flow in cell face (m3/s)
Gamma is diffusivity in cell face (m2/s)
* is t in case of explicit model and t+deltat in case of implicit

Time discretization of property transport in Module PorousMediaProperties can be explicit or implicit. If user chooses to use implicit formulation, fluxes between porous media cells are implicit computed and also Runoff or Drainage Network interactions where sinks in soil occur. Runoff and Drainage network interactions acting as source to soil and sources or sinks from vegetation (uptake or organic matter generation) are always computed explicitly. Vegetation uptakes can not be simulated implicitly because this uptake may be disconnected from evapotranspiration flux (SWAT formulation).


Spatial discretization (horizontally and vertically) of property transport in Module PorousMediaProperties can be chosen from several options as in ModuleWaterProperties for each property (e.g. Upwind order 1 to 3, CentralDifferences, LeapFrog..) In order to boost the computation, PorousMediaProperties has the option of choosing the same discretization for all the properties (see keywords).


Diffusivity in soil is defined by tortuosity and dispersion (associated to erratic motion in pores)

\gamma _{face}=\left (Diff_{face}\times \zeta (\theta _{face}^{*})  \right )+\left (\frac{v_{face}}{\theta _{face}^{*}}\times \lambda _{face}  \right )

where:

Gammaface is diffusivity in cell face (m2/s)
Diffface is molecular diffusivity in cell face (m2/s)
zeta is Tortuosity (-)
tethaface is water content at cell face (m3H20/m3cell)
vface is velocity at the cell face (m/s)
lambdaface is dispersivity (m)
* is t in case of explicit model and t+deltat in case of implicit

Water content at face can be obtained by several methods chosen by user: average of adjacent cells, minimum, maximum.

Tortuosity is defined as:

\zeta (\theta _{face}^{*})=\frac{(\theta _{face}^{*})^{\frac{7}{3}}}{(\phi _{face})^{2}}

where:

thetaface is water content at cell face (m3H20/m3cell)
phiface is porosity at cell face (m3pores/m3cell
* is t in case of explicit model and t+deltat in case of implicit

Property Transformation

Biological activity - Sediment Quality Module

Sediment Quality module simulates biological processes by bacteria. Heterotrophic bacteria perform mineralization of organic matter (organic matter to inorganic material), Autotrophic bacteria perform nitrification (ammonia to nitrate) and Anaerobic bacteria denitrification (nitrate to nitrogen gas). Also immobilization of inorganic species is done if bacteria have nutrient needs to mantain ratios.

Chemical reactions - PREEQC Module

PREEQC module handles chemical equilibrium between species in soil, giving the new equilibrium at each computation.

Partition

Partition between particulated and dissolved species is done using a user ratio.

Boundary Conditions

In PorousMedia there is the option to define the boundary condition in different components. It can be imposed an aquifer level at the soil lateral "walls" and/or free flux in the bottom.

In the case of lateral boundary flux if water enters domain from outside the properties values in the boundary need to be defined. For the bottom boundary condition is assumed "free-flow" or "null gradient" and water only exits soil so the properties in boundary do not need to be defined.

Computation

Lateral Boundary

Boundary propertie values are computed in one of two ways: i) impose a property value at boundary; ii) Null gradient where outside concentration is the same as inside. The boundary flow from Module Porous Media and the imposed concentration in boundary are used to define transport coefficients for advection diffusion. In advection diffusion solving (if user chooses implicit) the fluxes entering the domain are solved explicitly and fluxes exiting are computed implicitly.

Bottom Boundary

Bottom fluxes do not need for a boundary property definition (water exiting domain) and in the advection diffusion solving (if user chooses implicit) the fluxes are computed implicitly.

Keywords

Lateral Boundary

The keyword in property block in PorousMediaProperties_X.dat that allows to define the boundary condition method is:

<beginproperty>
...
BOUNDARY_CONDITION        : 2    !1-Imposed Value; 2-Null Gradient
...
<endproperty>

In case of using imposed value than the imposed concentration has to be defined:

<beginproperty>
... 
DEFAULTBOUNDARY           : 1.
...
<endproperty>

Bottom Boundary

For bottom boundary is no need for property definition


Discharges

In PorousMediaProperties the discharges may be positive or negative (PorousMediaProperties uses discharge flow and concentrarion) and are dealt with ModuleDischarges.

In Porous Media Properties it was also introduced the option to use properties discharged. If one property is not discharged than the assumption is that if a positive discharge exists that property concentration is zero.

Computation

The discharges are initialized in Construct phase reading its locations and checking if inside boundaries.

In Modification phase the discharges are explicit and computed before transport (they were not included in transport scheme).

Keywords

For positive discharges the discharge concentration is read from Discharges_X.dat and the following keyword needs to exist in the PorousMedia Properties_X.dat inside the property block of the discharged property:

DISCHARGES : 1


Other Features

Outputs

Output is done in terms of timeseries, HDF, and boxes following the MOHID standards.
