1、Designation:D588095(Reapproved 2006)Standard Guide forSubsurface Flow and Transport Modeling1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5880;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number
2、 in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide covers an overview of subsurface fluid-flow(groundwater)modeling.The term subsurface fluid flow isused to reduce misunderstanding rega
3、rding groundwater,soilwater,vapors including air in subsurface pores,and non-aqueous phase liquids.Increased understanding of fluid-flowphenomena is the combined result of field investigations andtheoretical development of mathematical methods to describethe observations.The results are methods for
4、modeling viscousfluids and air flow,in addition to water,that are practical andappropriate.1.2 This guide includes many terms to assist the user inunderstanding the information presented here.A groundwatersystem(soils and water)may be represented by a physical,electrical,or mathematical model,as des
5、cribed in 6.4.3.Thisguide focuses on mathematical models.The term mathematicalmodel is defined in 3.1.11;however,it will be most often usedto refer to the subset of models requiring a computer.1.3 This guide introduces topics for which other standardshave been developed.The process of applying a gro
6、undwaterflow model is described in Guide D5447.The process includesdefining boundary conditions(Guide D5609),initial conditions(Guide D5610),performing a sensitivity analysis(GuideD5611),and documenting a flow model application(GuideD5718).Other steps include developing a conceptual modeland calibra
7、ting the model.As part of calibration,simulationsare compared to site-specific information(Guide D5490),suchas water levels.1.4 Model use and misuse,limitations,and sources of errorin modeling are discussed in this standard.This guide does notendorse particular computer software or algorithms used i
