[0002] At present, in the prediction, early warning and risk assessment of groundwater solute pollution in fractured complex media, in order to obtain accurate and reliable results, the use of discrete fracture network numerical simulation system to simulate and evaluate groundwater pollution status and environmental risks is a commonly used quantitative method. However, in order to achieve accurate and reliable numerical simulation, it is necessary to comprehensively consider many influencing factors and complex evolution processes, especially the solute migration process of each fracture at a large scale and refinement, which is time-consuming, computationally resource-consuming, and even difficult to complete. In addition, there is a large uncertainty in the modeling and prediction of complex medium groundwater systems. The use of Monte Carlo and other methods for uncertainty assessment requires hundreds or thousands of numerical simulation tests, with huge or even unacceptable computational costs and low efficiency.

[0060] Select DfnWorks and PFLOTRAN integrated numerical simulation system.

[0061] 3. Construction of equivalent diffusion multivariate regression statistical model for groundwater solute transport in intersecting fractures

[0062] (1) Equivalent dispersion identification method

[0063] Whether reducing the disk model to a one-dimensional pipe flow model or performing numerical calculations on a coarse mesh, obtaining the equivalent dispersion value at the outlet is the key to solving the above problems. This equivalent parameter reflects the comprehensive dispersion effect of the solute due to the complex velocity distribution and seepage path differences in the two-dimensional plane of the fracture. Using the one-dimensional ADE equation analytical solution, the equivalent dispersion and equivalent average velocity are obtained by fitting the average solute concentration process line at the fracture outlet:

[0064]

[0065] The initial and boundary conditions are as follows:

[0066] C(x,0)=0x≥0; C(0,t)=C0t≥0; C(∞,t)=0t≥0

[0067] Where C is the solute concentration (ML -3 ); x represents the distance between the observation point and the pollution source (L); t is the time (T); Co is the initial concentration (ML-3 );υ represents the average flow velocity of the seepage path (L / T); D L Representative diffusion coefficient (LT -2 ), whose value is equal to the product of the diffusion coefficient α(L) and the average flow velocity υ. In this embodiment, α obtained by fitting the equivalent penetration curve is used. eq , while maintaining is consistent with the estimated average V in the respective Lagrangian percolation region. In addition, to ensure the subsequent application of α eq The spatial coordinates of the key computing nodes remain unchanged, and d in With d ot The sum represents .

[0068] (2) Typical scenario design of groundwater solute transport in intersecting fractures

[0069] In order to explore the influence of the geometric parameters of the disc-shaped crack on the equivalent dispersivity, a 7-factor mixed level L36 (2^5 3^2) orthogonal numerical model was constructed. The equivalent dispersivity and equivalent average velocity fitting results of 36 groups of models are shown in the table below. Here, the intersection length L- and the distance d- from the intersection to the center of the circle are normalized and divided by the diameter D and represented by Lr- and dr- respectively.

[0070] Table 1 Orthogonal test scenario design

[0071]

[0072] In order to more accurately estimate the influence of the other six control variables on the equivalent dispersion, the method of full combination of control variables is used to expand the sample data. The control variables D (100, 300, 500 cm) and θ (π / 2, 3π / 4, π) are set as the main control factors at 3 levels, Lr in (0.2,0.5), Lr ot (0.2,0.5), dr in (0.3,0.43) and dr ot (0.3, 0.43) were set as 2 levels respectively, and a total of 144 sets of numerical models were established after all control parameters were combined. The above 36 orthogonal test models and 144 models were regressed with 7 control parameters (control factors) to obtain the following equation: Equation (5) represents the statistical regression relationship between each control parameter (full factor) and the equivalent dispersion. Their R 2 It is 0.911, the equation fits the data well, and the full factor regression model shows a high degree of fit.

[0073]

[0074] 4. Numerical simulation verification of multivariate regression statistical model of groundwater solute transport in intersecting fractures

[0075] Sixteen new numerical models were added to verify the prediction ability and accuracy of the above regression equation, and the mean relative error (MRE) of the 16 verified models was calculated. The control parameter D was expanded to five levels from 100 cm to 500 cm, and θ was also increased to five levels (π, 8π / 9, 3π / 4, 11π / 18, π / 2). The levels of the other four control parameters were uniformly set to: dr in =0.43, dr ot =0.3, Lr in =0.5, Lr ot =0.2.

[0076]

[0077] y i is the true value; is the predicted value.

[0078] By applying the equivalent diffusivity simulation values ​​of the 16 groups of models and the predicted values ​​of the regression equation to obtain the MRE, the MRE was 12%. This shows that the full factor regression equation has a good predictive ability for interpolated data.

[0079] 5. Physical simulation test verification of typical scenarios of multivariate regression statistical model of groundwater solute transport in intersecting fractures

[0080] In addition, the reliability of the statistical prediction model was further verified through physical experiments under four different typical conditions (Exp. 1 to Exp. 4). Figure 1 The values ​​of the main parameters under each test condition are given. These four groups of tests respectively verify the influence of b, Q, θ, and L on the equivalent dispersivity. The distribution points of the solute concentration breakthrough process obtained by fitting the test with the ADE equation are Figure 1 The best fitting curves of each test data are shown. In addition, the above test parameters are substituted into formula (5) to obtain the regression equivalent diffusion prediction value, which is compared with the test fitting value. The results are shown in Figure 2As shown in the figure, compared with the physical test results, the equivalent dispersivity calculated by the regression equation has achieved a satisfactory agreement. It should be pointed out that: in Experiment 1 (Exp.1) and Experiment 2 (Exp.2), the flow velocity in the fracture is increased or decreased by changing the gap width and hydraulic gradient, respectively, when the average Reynolds number is small (<100). The spatial distribution characteristics of the flow velocity in the fracture plane have not changed, so the equivalent dispersivity result has not changed substantially. It can be seen from the results of Experiment 3 (Exp.3) that the angle has a significant effect on the dispersivity, which is highly consistent with the conclusion obtained by numerical simulation. Due to the limitations of the device structure, the values ​​of Lr1 (=0.12), dr and D in Experiment 4 (Exp.4) belong to parameter extrapolation for the regression model in this embodiment, and its equivalent dispersivity still agrees well with the regression equation (5), which proves that the full factor (all control parameters) regression equation has a good extrapolation ability.

[0081] 6. Construction of the conceptual model of equivalent pipeline flow for groundwater solute transport in intersecting fractures

[0082] An equivalent pipeline flow model is established. Through the center of the circle, the corresponding inlet and outlet pipeline model dispersions are the same, and k is the same. According to the equivalent dispersion, k and A statistical model, the equivalent pipeline model k, A in, A out and dispersion of each channel are calculated through known control parameters.

[0083] One of the applications of the regression model of this embodiment is to try to transform the convection-diffusion process in the crack surface of a two-dimensional disk into a one-dimensional circular tube problem while ensuring a high degree of accuracy.

[0084] A complete description of the one-dimensional convection-diffusion process also requires the determination of the equivalent permeability K eq Equivalent seepage cross-sectional area A eq , to ensure the conservation of mass between computing nodes, that is, the flow equivalence and diffusion effect are equivalent at the same time.

[0085] 7. Construction of statistical model of equivalent hydrodynamic parameters for pipeline flow model of groundwater solute transport in intersecting fractures

[0086] For the disk fissure, the equivalent average flow velocity per unit hydraulic gradient, that is, the equivalent permeability, is established, and the calculation formula is as follows:

[0087]

[0088] At the same time, according to the equivalent average flow velocity and total flow rate, the equivalent seepage cross-sectional area A is calculated. eq , and its calculation formula is as follows:

[0089]

[0090] The variance analysis was performed on the influencing factors of these two equivalent hydraulic parameters, among which b, dr and Lr had a significant effect on Keq The influence is significant, which is quite different from the traditional cubic law derived from parallel plates. eq The size of depends not only on the gap width, but also on other fracture geometric parameters, which indicates that if the a priori formula under ideal conditions is directly used in the process of dimensionality reduction and generalization, the solute transport results will be misestimated.

[0091] Select all factors and eq and A eq Performing multiple regression statistics, we obtain regression equations (9) and (10):

[0092]

[0093] R 2 =0.998

[0094]

[0095] R 2 =0.994

[0096] 8. Large-scale application of the equivalent pipe flow model for groundwater solute transport in intersecting fractures

[0097] In the application research of this embodiment, a larger-scale application case of the equivalent pipeline flow model of intersecting fracture groundwater solute transport was investigated: the seepage area was 20m x20m x 20m, and the typical feature set met the typical condition framework of the conceptual model of the spatiotemporal evolution of intersecting fracture groundwater solute transport given in this embodiment.

[0098] Specifically, the groundwater seepage in the fracture network is a steady flow, the inflow and outflow boundaries are both constant head boundaries, and the pollutant concentration at the inflow boundary is set to a constant concentration considering the continuous stable pollution source. The dispersion of each pipeline in the equivalent pipeline flow model is assigned a specific dispersion value calculated based on the statistical model obtained in the study of this embodiment.

[0099] The results show that the equivalent pipe flow model achieves high accuracy in terms of cross-sectional average concentration on the outflow boundary, compared with the numerical simulation results of pollutant transport in the discrete fracture network model. However, if no equivalent dispersion value is assigned to each pipe, the simulation results of pollutant concentration will have significant errors.

[0100] It is worth noting that on a computer equipped with an i9-12900k processor and 96GB RAM, it takes more than 5000 seconds to simulate solute transport in a disk-like fracture network with a domain length of 30 meters. In contrast, using the channelized fracture network model, the calculation time on a common laptop equipped with an i5-13500H processor and 32GB RAM is less than 5 seconds, indicating that its computational efficiency is more than 1000 times higher than conventional DFN numerical simulations.

[0101] This embodiment systematically solves key problems such as the equivalent diffusion of the basic structural units of the fracture network based on the topological structure of 3D random DFNs. At the same time, it provides and establishes an effective and reliable model for estimating key parameters of pollutant transmission and diffusion processes at field scales of tens to hundreds of meters, and proposes ways and methods for effectively upscaling modeling of groundwater pollutant migration in fractured media. It improves the accuracy, efficiency and practicality of quantifying the spatiotemporal evolution of complex groundwater pollutant migration in fractured media, provides strong support for groundwater pollution assessment and risk control, and has important practical value.

[0102] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present invention and the advantages of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention to be protected.
