Re: Can't read MESH properly
@Rivan Tri Yuono You can use the positive values as permeability modifiers, as the message indicates. No need to change the mesh file.

Re: GENER BLOCK : water pumping EOS7r two phase problem
@AAgeoscience As indicated, this is possible in iTOUGH2 (it was implemented for exactly the same use case, i.e., water consumption due to a chemical reaction rather than pumping).…

Unclear what you mean by "different results" (what different results compared to what alternative setting? Changing from positive to negative, or changing from MASS to COM1?).…

Re: Hysteresis and non-wetting phase entrapment saturation
Hi, If I understand you correctly, you are talking about "trapped" gas flowing along with liquid as bubbles, correct? In the context of Darcy's law, an irreducible gas saturation means that the gas…

Re: Flux question
Just briefly: (1) Yes, what you see is the flow rate in kg/s (not flux in kg/s/m2), i.e., the same output as you see in the regular output file in the second output block (if you selected KDATA=2).…
