Total System Performance Assessment Code (TOSPAC): Volume 1, Physical and mathematical bases: Yucca Mountain Project

摘要: TOSPAC is a computer program designed to simulate water flow and transport of soluble waste materials along ground pathways through fractures, porous rock formations similar those at Yucca Mountain, Nevada, candidate site for high-level nuclear-waste repository. The physical models simplifying assumptions used are described, with their mathematical formulation the numerical techniques implement them. Example problems demonstrating capabilities code presented. 64 refs., 101 figs., 9 tabs.
