Abstract
Recent numerical modeling efforts have attempted to describe the transport and distribution of nonaqueous phase waste chemicals in subsurface systems. However, the validation of these models has been limited by the lack of laboratory and field data. Simulation experiments were conducted in a large laboratory soil flume to study the transport and entrapment of immiscible fluids under heterogeneous aquifer conditions. A finite element model of multiphase flow in porous media was developed. Base on the experimental results and model analysis, the limitations of the conventional numerical methods in simulating transport under heterogeneous aquifer conditions are demonstrated.
