An algorithm for simulation of a Chemical Transport Equation in an Aquifer

Abstract

Dynamical systems can be predicted using mathematical models. These models are usually Partial Different Equations (PDEs). Examples include the wave equation, equations for diffusive processes, and the heat conduction equation. Numerical solution of such PDEs describing a given system and its implementation using a suitable computer code can lead to numerous predictions on the dynamical system both in space and time. In this paper, the contaminant / chemical equation and the groundwater flow equation are solved numerically using the Integrated Finite Difference Method (IFDM) and the algorithms generated are simulated using an object oriented code. Generic results generated represent important predications on the fate and transport processes of a chemical in an aquifer   Keywords: Simulation procedure, integrated finite difference method, contaminant equation, discretizatio
