Existing studies have parameterized DSL thickness and vapor flow as functions of the soil moisture content (SMC) in the surface layer to predict soil evaporation. However, hydrochemical processes related to DSL development have been ignored, including changes in hydrochemistry, the underlying hydrochemical mechanism, and the role of dissolved substances in the DSL development. Herein, we performed a series of soil evaporation experiments for 260 days and explored the factors influencing DSL development (e.g., soil texture, atmospheric temperature, SMC, solutes). Evaporation experiments were performed using silty loess, sandy loess, and fine sand with a 60-cm water table. Results showed that the cumulative evaporation of silty loess, sandy loess, and fine sand over the experimental period were 1,391.52, 460.10, and 185.53 mm, respectively, which determined by the maximum height of liquid flow continuity. The content of total dissolved solids (TDS) and major ions at the surface soil were significantly higher than the values at deep depths of 5‒55 cm, which largely depend on evaporative water loss. Evolutionary trends of chemical facies in sand media along the liquid water migration were from HCO<sub>3</sub>-Ca type to SO<sub>4</sub>·Cl-Na type. This was attributed to mineral dissolution at a depth of 5–55 cm and their transport with liquid water, resulting in the precipitation of salt crystals at the surface soil. Furthermore, a consolidated DSL with a thickness of 3.0–3.5 cm in the sandy loess and a loose DSL with a thickness of 1.5–2.0 cm in fine sand were observed at the end of the experiments. The accumulation of solutes at the surface leads to a reduction in effective porosity and the aggregation of soil particles during continuous drying, which facilitates the consolidation of DSL in sandy loess. This overestimated the DSL thickness, resulting in a difference between the experimental and predicted evaporation rates by Fick's law. Overall, these results highlight the limitations of considering DSL thickness as a function of SMC only, providing new insights into hydrochemical processes and dissolved solutes involving DSL parameterization during continuous soil drying.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7614,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Water Resources","volume":"190 ","pages":"Article 104738"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141291269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transverse flow arises due to pressure variations on both sides of fractures, as these typically exhibit lower permeability in the perpendicular direction. A simple coupling framework is introduced to connect independent sets of finite element meshes, one for the bulk porous media and the other for natural discontinuities. Importantly, the proposed coupling technique does not introduce additional degrees of freedom, and discontinuities can arbitrarily intersect the background elements of the continuum domain. Additionally, standard quadrature rules for integration can be used without modifications, thus avoiding additional remediation steps found with nodal enrichment strategies. These advantageous features make our method a robust technique capable of modelling transient fluid flow as an integral part of a coupled hydro-mechanical formulation. The performance is assessed using several numerical examples. These encompass various cases of fracture orientation relative to the background elements. The results demonstrate a good agreement with reference solutions. The effects of the coupling parameter, as well as the transverse and longitudinal permeabilities, in the temporal domain, are also investigated. The results demonstrated that the proposed method is capable of handling any values of transverse or longitudinal permeability compared to the surrounding porous domain.

Limited experimental data have led to reliance on correlations lacking physical basis. We conducted experiments to characterize relative permeability in rough-walled fractures packed with unconsolidated porous media. We tested fractures packed with water-wet 40/70 sand (silica) and surface-coated ceramic proppants. Brine and mineral oil were used as the wetting and non-wetting fluid phases, respectively. Steady-state (SS) drainage (non-wetting-phase displacing wetting-phase) and imbibition (wetting-phase displacing non-wetting-phase) tests were performed under a wide range of saturation histories (full-cycle and scanning-curves) to study relative permeability hysteresis of the propped fractures. Every SS drainage or imbibition test consisted of several discrete points at which fluid saturations and the corresponding relative permeability were measured by varying the fractional flow rates of fluids whilst maintaining a constant total flow rate. We analyzed residual non-wetting phase saturations and relative permeability trends to understand two-phase flow behavior in each proppant pack. High-resolution x-ray microtomography was used to understand the pore-scale topology, wettability, and to provide insights about the pore-scale displacement mechanisms involved in this study. The results showed that commonly used models to estimate relative permeabilities of fractures significantly overestimated the SS brine and oil relative permeabilities (denoted as k<sub>rw</sub> and k<sub>ro</sub>) measured in this study. Further analysis unveiled that the k<sub>ro</sub> values during imbibition exceeded their drainage counterparts in both proppants, the ceramic proppant exhibited a lower initial water saturation and a higher end-point k<sub>ro</sub> permeability at the end of the drainage displacement, as well as higher k<sub>rw</sub> across all flooding processes. Updated fitting parameters for a Brooks-Corey-type relative permeability correlation are introduced. This study presents improved insights, extensive experimentally generated relative permeability data, and an updated relative permeability correlation, which can be collectively utilized to reduce uncertainties associated with continuum-scale forecasts of multiphase flow behavior in fractured subsurface formations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7614,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Water Resources","volume":"189 ","pages":"Article 104732"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141241981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nonetheless, the use of a forward model in these methods can be highly time-consuming, especially with an increasing number of model parameters. To address this issue, we propose a surrogate model based on a U-Net architecture that replaces the transient groundwater flow model, reducing runtime and enabling a fast quantification of uncertainties related to key parameters, including heterogeneous hydraulic conductivity, boundary conditions, specific storage, and pumping rate. The surrogate is trained using limited evaluations of the forward model to learn the physical relationship between hydraulic conductivity fields and transient hydraulic heads measured on-site. The physical principles of the studied problem, including boundary conditions, specific storage, and source terms, are also mapped and introduced as inputs to the model to enhance its understanding of the governing equation of transient groundwater flow. To speed up learning using image–image regression, the previously predicted transient hydraulic heads also serve as an input to predict the transient heads at the current time step. Once the model is trained, we use a spectral geostatistical method to solve the inverse problem, a pumping test of 12 h, using the surrogate model in place of the forward model. Our study demonstrates that the trained U-Net accurately reproduces the state variables corresponding to a specific parameter field, and in terms of computational demand, using U-Net as a surrogate model reduces the required computational time by approximately an order of magnitude for the defined problem.

In this work, we present an Enriched Physics-Informed Neural Network (E-PINN) to overcome these barriers and realize the simulation of such flow. Specifically, the Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (EDFM) is adopted to explicitly represent fractures, and then the finite volume method (FVM) instead of the Automatic Differentiation (AD) is used to evaluate spatial derivatives and construct the physics-informed loss function, so that the flux continuity between neighboring elements with different properties (e.g. matrix and fracture) can be defined rigorously. Besides, we develop a novel physics-informed neural network (NN) architecture adopting the adjacency-location anchoring, adaptive activation function, skip connection and gated updating to enrich the pressure information and enhance the learning ability of NN. Additionally, the initial and boundary conditions are constrained through a hard approach, which encodes them into network design, to improve the accuracy and efficiency of network training. In order to further reduce the difficulty of training, the Implicit-Pressure Explicit-Saturation (IMPES) scheme is used to calculate pressure and saturation, in which only the pressure needs to be solved by training NN.

In general, the width of the mixing zone (WMZ) in the upper and center regions of the aquifer exhibited initial increase followed by subsequent decrease in various scenarios, displaying a consistent trend.

The growth rates of the WMZ in the upper and center regions of the aquifer were notably slower, requiring more time to reach steady state in low-permeability scenarios. This observation underscored that reclamation with lower permeability could significantly extend the TMV. It was noteworthy that varying the longitudinal dispersion of the reclamation area between 0.5–10 m had only a slight effect on the TMV, ranging from 8,000 to 8,500 days. The peaks of the mixing zone width showed a proportional increase with longitudinal dispersion.
