Re: ECO2N, Model initial temperature distribution
Hi Ahmad, Your temperatures actually did change from the initially specified values (which are slightly different for UPPBC and BASBC). Since you did not specify a constant pressure or temperature…

Re: Effective or Total Porosity in TOUGH2 EOS1
Hi Jared, Porosity is a material property and thus a user input - I'm not aware of a generally valid conversion between effective and total porosity that could be built in (please let me know if I'm…

Re: Wettability and capillary pressure direction in TOUGH2
Hi Buddy, I did not realize that you wanted to combine mixed wettability with hysteresis. (You can have hysterestic effects in a single element, so I do not quite understand your related comment.…

Re: Wettability and capillary pressure direction in TOUGH2

Re: Natural State geothermal model calibration using itough2
Rivan, I'm afraid I cannot help you much for the following reasons: (1) I cannot reproduce the error. (2) You did not attach your output file, and did not provide all input files needed to run your…

Re: Natural State geothermal model calibration using itough2
Rivan, Please let us know what the error message is. Is it the same as before? After 5-10 minutes, are you still running the first forward run? Did you look at the TOUGH2 output file? Stefan

Re: SAVE file
Thanks, Florian, for this information. This is the TOUGHREACT format (4E15.9; iTOUGH2 and TOUGH3 use 5E10.4). Is there a T2B documentation? If so, it should indicate for which TOUGH package this…
