piMIKE11

One of the focus areas of todays water related applications is the interaction between ground and surface water. With piMIKE11 it is possible to present a realistic view of this interaction. The module couples the FEFLOW the MIKE Powered by DHI hydrodynamic software MIKE11.

Features

• Unsaturated/saturated conditions

• Confined/unconfined conditions (Free & Movable , Fixed and Phreatic)

• Transient flow

• Fluid-transfer BCs in FEFLOW or special internal boundaries

• Transient mass transport

• Multi- as well as single species transport

• Convective form of the transport equation:

• Concentration BCs

• Special internal boundaries

• Divergence Form of the transport equation:

• Concentration BCs

• Nodal mass source/sink BCs

• Dry River Option

• Flexible and automatic mesh overlay

• Adaptive or constant time stepping

• Polder, Wetland, Foreland and Floodplain modelling

• Automatic setup of flow constraints in polders or regular branches

• Batch mode

• Convenient user interface to observe the interaction between MIKE11 and FEFLOW as well as to save all interaction components

Limitations

• Only 3D FEFLOW models

• Only 6 Node Elements in FEFLOW (triangular prisms)

• Only transient flow, both in MIKE11 and FEFLOW

• Ends of branches of MIKE11 cannot be coupled with mass transport simulations

• Non-iterative coupling
