Capillary barriers and subtitle D covers: estimating equivalency
Article Abstract:
The numerical and analytical solutions in the study of equivalency of tilted capillary barriers and subtitle D covers should consider the various parameters such as the quasi-linear relative permeability relationship of these variables. Between the numerical and analytical solutions, the characteristic curve needs to be consistent. Such considerations in the analysis of capillary barriers and subtitle D covers are important.
