PorousFlow: a multiphysics simulation code for coupled problems in porous media
Andrew Wilkins, Christopher P. Green, Jonathan Ennis‐King
Abstract
PorousFlow enables simulation of transport and flow in porous media. PorousFlow can simulate multi-component, multi-phase fluid flow, along with solid mechanics, heat flow and chemical reactions in a tightly-coupled framework. Such simulations are important in many practical fields of research. For instance, PorousFlow has been used in the following applications.
