Temperature extension of NaCl Pitzer coefficients and ∆RG°(NaCl)

Voigt, Wolfgang 20 April 2022 (has links)
The general temperature range for THEREDA is currently limited to 0 to about 110°C. For the important electrolyte NaCl there are thermodynamic data available to 200°C and above. To cover this larger temperature range for the Pitzer coefficients, a refit of the temperature functions of Greenberg, J. P. and Møller, N. (Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 53 (1989) 2503-2518) is presented. A corresponding function for the solubility constant of NaCl is deduced from IUPAC recommended data. The data set for NaCl, thus extended in its range of validity up to 200°C, is implemented in THEREDA.

Hexary System of Oceanic Salts – Polythermal Pitzer Dataset (numerical supplement)

Voigt, Wolfgang 20 April 2022 (has links)
For the polythermal Pitzer dataset of the hexary system of oceanic salts (Na+, K+, Mg+2, Ca+2, Cl-, SO4-2 - H2O) including acids and hydroxides the data selection is documented in detail in the report “THEREDA - Thermodynamische Referenzdatenbasis” (Altmaier et al. 2011, https://www.grs.de/de/aktuelles/publikationen/grs-265-thereda-thermodynamische-referenzdatenbasis-abschlussbericht). The present short communication supplements this report by the numerical values of all temperature coefficients.

Variable-Density Flow Processes in Porous Media On Small, Medium and Regional Scales

Walther, Marc 03 November 2014 (has links) (PDF)
Nowadays society strongly depends on its available resources and the long term stability of the surrounding ecosystem. Numerical modelling has become a general standard for evaluating past, current or future system states for a large number of applications supporting decision makers in proper management. In order to ensure the correct representation of the investigated processes and results of a simulation, verification examples (benchmarks), that are based on observation data or analytical solutions, are utilized to evaluate the numerical modelling tool. In many parts of the world, groundwater is an important resource for freshwater. While it is not only limited in quantity, subsurface water bodies are often in danger of contamination from various natural or anthropogenic sources. Especially in arid regions, marine saltwater intrusion poses a major threat to groundwater aquifers which mostly are the exclusive source of freshwater in these dry climates. In contrast to common numerical groundwater modelling, density-driven flow and mass transport have to be considered as vital processes in the system and in scenario simulations for fresh-saltwater interactions. In the beginning of this thesis, the capabilities of the modelling tool OpenGeoSys are verified with selected benchmarks to represent the relevant non-linear process coupling. Afterwards, variable-density application and process studies on different scales are presented. Application studies comprehend regional groundwater modelling of a coastal aquifer system extensively used for agricultural irrigation, as well as hydro-geological model development and parametrization. In two process studies, firstly, a novel method to model gelation of a solute in porous media is developed and verified on small scale laboratory observation data, and secondly, investigations of thermohaline double-diffusive Rayleigh regimes on medium scale are carried out. With the growing world population and, thus, increasing pressure on non-renewable resources, intelligent management strategies intensify demand for potent simulation tools and development of novel methods. In that way, this thesis highlights not only OpenGeoSys’ potential of density-dependent process modelling, but the comprehensive importance of variable-density flow and transport processes connecting, both, avant-garde scientific research, and real-world application challenges.
