Re: MOP(7)=9
Ramin, I don't know what you mean by "at the top part fo the results", and permeabilities in all three directions are printed in columns right next to the porosity column (which I thought is what…

Re: compiling Gslib in cluster
Ramin, Remove all *.o files and recompile everything. It is clear that you don't have a compatible eos7c.o file. Are you using it2make (you should)? Stefan

Re: GSLIB+Anisotropy permeability
Ramin, If you have no data, there is no way iTOUGH2 (or anything/anybody else) can give you an answer. If you do have data (either measured permeabilities or data on the system state),…

Re: GSLIB+Anisotropy permeability
Dear Ramin, I likely have misunderstood what data you have and what you want to do, but it seems I have to go back to my previous reply: (1) anis1 and anis2 refer to larger-scale anisotropies,…

Re: GSLIB+Anisotropy permeability
Ramin, Did you set MOP(7)=9 and check near the top of the output file? That's where you find all three permeabilities. In some (but not all) EOS modules,…

Re: Assigning atmospheric boundary conditions
T G, The concept of large elements to apply Dirichlet boundary conditions is that due to its large volume, any inflow or outflow of mass or heat to that element won't change its thermodynamic state…

Re: How to simulate a tide boundary?
Yang Xin, Use sources AND sinks to accomplish fluctuations. Yes, you have to be inventive about what fluids are injected and produced. Moreover, pick an appropriate weighting scheme (MOP(11)),…

Re: How to use "t2data.run()" in PyTOUGH

Re: ECO2N, Model initial temperature distribution
Ahmad, There is no generally "correct way" to define your system - it depends on how your actual reservoir looks like! I don't know how you specified the hydraulic boundary conditions now, i.e.…

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…
