The BoxModel Concept: ReacFlow3D in a 3D finite volume program for modelling ground and mine water flow, heat transport and multi-component mass transport with sorption, microbial degradation and reactions with minerals. A special feature is the great discretisation flexibility to model geological structures like layers and faults as well as mining structural elements and mine excavations.

Water management in active mines:

• Considering pump performance curves
• Influence of pipes, etc.
• Break through scenarios between active and abandoned parts

Discretisation – BoxModel Concept:

• Extreme flexible discretisation
• Different numbers and structures of cells (boxes) per slice
• Numerous numbers and types of connections between cells (boxes)
• Compatible to all FE/FD models
• Turbulent flow in pipes, drifts and shafts
• Reduction of cell numbers using the Analytical Element Method (AEM)

Multi-component transport:

• 57 pre-installed transport units (MKW, PAH, VOC, SO4, CO3, Fe, pH-, Eh-calculation)
• Organics and inorganics
• Pitzer coefficients
• Surface complexation
• Ion exchange
