Re: Printout problem with TIMES
I think TOUGH2 is doing what it should do. FOFT controls the printout of a fixed number of parameters at each time step for the listed elements. TIMES controls the printout of main output tables.…

Re: Modelling of high temperature (600 ℃) air injection.
Dear Xin, you posted in the TOUGH2 section, so I assume you are using TOUGH2. No standard TOUGH2 module can go above 350°C, which is the limit of liquid water properties of Region 1 in the IAPWS P-T…

Re: CO2 storage in saline aquifer with ECO2N
I would start looking at mass balance equations for the generic component in ECO2N user's guide. All needed parameters should be printed in the main output table,…

Re: CO2 storage in saline aquifer with ECO2N
I guess you could compute for each grid element belonging to the rock domains affected by CO2 migration: mass of dissolved CO2: MCO2w = V phi (1. - SG) DL XCO2aq CO2 mass in the gas (NA) phase:…

Re: About the SEED with porosity
Hi Luoluo. SEED allows to use permeability modifiers only. A similar option is not available for porosity. But you should be able to assign element by element porosity values (PORX) just using the…

Re: TOUGHREACT1.2/ECO2N: About the inject rate and maximum pressure
@Luoluo Not sure what you mean for: but it failure to exhibit a gravity plume. The plot shows the upflow of CO2 under gravity driven flow and its accumulation below the cap-rock.…

Re: TOUGHREACT1.2/ECO2N: About the inject rate and maximum pressure
You are using a 2D vertical slice just 1 m wide. Injecting 5 kg/s CO2 in a vertical slice is not comparable to inject the same rate in a radial system. I think you should either use a radial grid or…

Re: How many materials can be included in TMVOC?
SEED keyword should allow to assign the permeability modifiers (PM) that are affecting the permeability assigned to rock domains and are also used to scale the capillary pressure.…

Re: TOUGHREACT1.2/ECO2N: About the inject rate and maximum pressure
Your output file does not show any problem for the 30 days simulated. The P builds up to 596.33 bara, as you mention, for a relatively limited injection rate of 5 kg/s.…

Re: T2WELL deals with time scale inconsistencies
Mass balance eqs for reservoir and wellbore elements are assembled and solved together by T2Well within each time step. Thus, fast transients occurring in the wellbore grid elements control the…

Re: Simulated CO2 injection into aquifers using T2WELL/ECO2M did not run successfully
Have you checked if the enthalpy value you assign to injected CO2 corresponds to the intended P&T conditions in ECO2M as I suggested before? If you inject liquid CO2 with enthalpy corresponding to…

Re: Simulated CO2 injection into aquifers using T2WELL/ECO2M did not run successfully
@happy12688 To inject CO2 at WH there are basically two approaches: - inject at constant T; - inject at constant enthalpy. If you inject at constant enthalpy,…

Re: Simulated CO2 injection into aquifers using T2WELL/ECO2M did not run successfully
It is difficult to understand what it is not going on properly. I just noticed that the injection element reaches a low negative temperature of -17.96°C at about 20.4 bar.…

Re: Can TOUGHREACT automatically calculate injection rate into each element?
Not sure it can work. What is needed is something to emulate the injection wellbore. A column of elements shall be added and connected to the injection elements.…

You should inspect the output file looking for some message which can tell you why the model did not run. You can see where the run stopped looking at output file contents.…

Re: Empty SAVE file
Dimas, are you sure the code ran your "field" input dat file? Lineq file is empty and it suggests no NR iterations have been made. Vers file is only 2 kB, while for the "simple" run it was 5 kB.…

Re: Last bock in CO2TAB file

Re: How to realize an air-injection well with constant bottom-hole pressure?
