Calls function SoilAdv.hom for 2D steady advection of soil gas. Gives the disturbance pressures and fluxes in a homogeneous column of sand.
1 | SoilAdv.hom(lx, ly, nx, ny, e, k_soil, miu, dp_bot, dp_top, solution, ...)
|
lx |
x axis length of the medium column [L]. |
ly |
y axis length (depth) of the medium column [L]. Only positive values are accepted. |
nx |
Number of grid cells in the x direction. |
ny |
Number of grid cells in the y direction. |
e |
Sand porosity [-]. A constant value over the entire column. |
k_soil |
The gas permeability of the sand [L2]. |
miu |
Air viscosity [M*(1/L*T)]. |
dp_bot |
Fixed value in the downstream boundary in y-direction (bottom of the sand column) for a constant value of disturbance pressure [M*(1/L*1/T2)]. Only positive (or zero) values are accepted, otherwise the steady state will not be reached. |
dp_top |
Fixed value in the upstream boundary in y-direction (top of the sand column) for a constant value of disturbance pressure [M*(1/L*1/T2)]. Only negative (or zero) values are accepted, otherwise the steady state will not be reached. |
solution |
Type of solution to be computed. Only "steady" is avaiable at the moment. |

To optimize the code: The number of grid cells (nx,ny) will depend on the user's own computer capability. Higher numbers will give a closer approximation to the exact solution. The quantity for ny should be larger than nx, this allows a greater discretization in the y-axis.
Boundary conditions: Fixed values for the disturbance pressure in the upstream and downstream boundary in y-direction (a negative y axis is considered). All the otther boundaries are closed off for transport.
Fluxes output: The output of the fluxes indicates the flow direction in correspondence with y-axis. In the case where a negative y-axis is considered, a negative flux value represents upward flow (from bottom to top). If the y-axis considered is positive, then a negative flux value represents downward flow (from top to bottom). The soil gas fluxes are computed at the interface of each grid cell.
A list containing:
x.axis |
X axis vector (1:nx) for disturbances pressure and fluxes [L]. |
y.axis.press |
Y axis vector (1:ny) for the disturbances pressure output [L]. |
y.axis.flux |
Y axis vector (1:ny+1) for the radon fluxes output [L]. |
press |
Disturbance pressures in the center of each grid cell, a [1:nx,1:ny] matrix [M*(1/L*1/T2)]. |
flux |
Soil gas fluxes in the center of each grid cell in the y-direction, a [1:nx,1:ny+1] matrix [L3/T]. |
At the moment there is no provision to deal with cross-advection between x and y-axis.
The disturbances pressure values are only computed at the center of each grid cell, this implies that the exact value in a cell interface (or in a boundary domain) will not be shown. Thus, the closest value is taken as an approximation at this locations.
