Model description

The model is a homogeneous, isotropic and confined aquifer. We are investigating the dispersion of the pollutant over time. The length of the model is L = 300 m, and it has a width of B = 100 m. The example model should also have the following properties:

Conductivity coefficients	k_f = 5*10^-4 m/s	KWER
Thickness	m = 18 m	MAEC
Porosity	n_e = 0.2	PORO
Dispersivities	α_L = 7 m α_T = 0.7 m	DISP (sitr-parameters)
Initial potential heads	H_l = 36.0 m H_r = 30.0 m	POTE
Pollutant concentration	c₀ = 240 mg/m³	1KON
delay factor	R = 1	-
Decay factor	λ = 0	-

The pollutant input is permanent and constant. The location of the input is at the edge of the model (node 156), which is why a particularly fine discretisation was selected there.
