A Study on Groundwater and Solute Transport Modeling Using Visual Modflow

Sumit Kumar Gautam | Vipin Kumar Swaroop

Abstract: For solving problems of pollution source identification in groundwater. Groundwater modeling is a tool that can help to analyze many groundwater problems. The numerical simulations of flow and contaminant solute transport in groundwater were carried out using MODFLOW. Numerical groundwater models are an important tool for solving the groundwater hydrologist problem. In now a day, many computer techniques and programms are popular and extensively used in ground water modeling. visual modflow are one of them popular software that use finite difference method to solve the equation. modflow can be used to simulate the behavior of complex problem of aquifers including the effects of irregular boundaries, heterogeneity and different processes such as groundwater flow and contaminants transport in the ground system. This study aims to reveals that the suitability of modflow software under various groundwater conditions. The groundwater system may be disturbed by some natural processes or artificially. To predict the groundwater system behavior, visual modflow is the easy to use modeling environment for 2-D and 3-D groundwater flow and contaminant solute transport simulations.
