Calculates the path of a particle through a velocity field.

Remarks

directionRaster

Raster containing values of direction of the velocity; associated with the magnitude Raster

Directions are expressed in compass coordinates, in degrees clockwise from north. This may be created by the IGroundwaterOp::DarcyFlow method or IGroundwaterOp::DarcyVelocy method.

magnitudeRaster

Raster containing values of the magnitude of the velocity; associated with the direction Raster

Units are length/time. This may be created by the IGroundwaterOp::DarcyFlow methods or IGroundwaterOp::DarcyVelocy method.

sourcePoint

location of the source point from which to begin the particle tracking

This is entered as numbers identifying the position in map units.

trackFile

the name of the ASCII trackfile which will be created by the method

[stepLength]

user-defined value for a characteristic step length used for calculating the particle track

If none is specified the stepLength will be one half the cell size. Units are length.

[trackingTime]

maximum elapsed time for particle tracking

ParticleTrack will follow the track until either this time is met or the particle migrates off the Raster or into a depression. If no trackingTime is specified the value will be infinity. Units are time.

Calculates the time-dependent, two-dimensional concentration distribution in mass per volume of a solute introduced instantaneously and at a discrete point into a vertically mixed aquifer.

Remarks

trackFile

The path file required by this method is an ASCII text file containing information about the position, the local velocity vector, and the cumulative length and time of travel along the path.

This file is generated using the ParticleTrack method

porosityRaster

An input Raster, RasterDataset, RasterBand, or RasterDescriptor containing values of effective formation porosity for each cell in the Raster.

thicknessRaster

An input Raster, RasterDataset, RasterBand, or RasterDescriptor containing values of saturated thickness for each cell in the Raster.

mass

Value representing the amount of mass released instantaneously at the source point, in units of mass

[dispersionTime]

Value representing the time horizon for dispersion of the solute, with units of time

The time must be less than or equal to the maximum time in the track file. If the requested time exceeds the available times from the track file, the function is aborted. The default time is the latest time (corresponding to the terminal point) in the track file.

[longitudinalDispersivity]

Value representing the dispersivity parallel to the flow direction, with units of length.

[dispersivityRatio]

Value representing the ratio of longitudinal dispersivity over transverse dispersivity. Transverse dispersivity is perpendicular to the flow direction in the same horizontal plane

The default value is 3.

[retardationFactor]

A dimensionless value representing the retardation of the solute in the aquifer

Retardation varies between 1 and infinity, with 1 corresponding to no retardation. The default value is 1.

[decayCoefficient]

Decay coefficient for solutes undergoing first-order exponential decay (e.g., radionuclides) in units of inverse time

The default is zero, corresponding to no decay.
