Well domains, can be set up using the following instructions, as outlined in Section 2.3.2.2 and in Equation 2.55. The variable radius corresponds to , while the pumping rates , use the new boundary condition format as described in Section 5.7.

Default Well Properties

Unless the user modifies the default values, all well zones in the domain will be assigned the default properties. The default values, Table 5.8, can be and are recommended to be modified to fit the model application.

Example Well Instructions

As an example, the following set of instructions, with prefix.wprops file Figure 5.12, could be inserted into the prefix.grok file to produce a pumping well:

use domain type
well

properties file
prefix.wprops

clear chosen segments
choose segments polyline               !Screen interval

100. 100. 0.
100. 100. 20.

create node set

boundary condition
    type

    name

    node set

    time value table
    0.0 -80.0e-3                        !Pumping duration and rate
    end
end


The well domain example opens the property file prefix.wprops, shown in Figure 5.12, and creates a 20 m long screen located at x = 100 and y = 100 with a pump intake located at z = 0. The well one properties are read into grok and a steady pumping rate is set at -80 × 10−3 m3 s−1. If the flowrate is set to zero, the well is passive but can still transmit water vertically through its screen.
