static Scalar Dumux::RegularizedVanGenuchten< ScalarT, RegularizedVanGenuchtenParams< ScalarT > >::dkrn_dswe	(	const Params &	params,
		Scalar	swe
	)

inlinestaticinherited

A regularized version of the derivative of the relative permeability for the nonwetting phase in regard to the wetting saturation of the medium as implied by the van Genuchten parameterization.

Parameters

swe	The mobile saturation of the wetting phase.
params	A container object that is populated with the appropriate coefficients for the respective law. Therefore, in the (problem specific) spatialParameters first, the material law is chosen, and then the params container is constructed accordingly. Afterwards the values are set there, too.

Note: Instead of undefined behaviour if pc is not in the valid range, we return a valid number, by clamping the input.

params	A container object that is populated with the appropriate coefficients for the respective law. Therefore, in the (problem specific) spatialParameters first, the material law is chosen, and then the params container is constructed accordingly. Afterwards the values are set there, too.

◆ dpc_dswe()

static Scalar Dumux::RegularizedVanGenuchten< ScalarT, RegularizedVanGenuchtenParams< ScalarT > >::dpc_dswe	(	const Params &	params,
		Scalar	swe
	)

inlinestaticinherited

A regularized version of the partial derivative of the \(\mathrm{p_c(\overline{S}_w)}\) w.r.t. effective saturation according to van Genuchten.

regularized part:

low saturation: use the slope of the regularization point (i.e. no kink).
high saturation: connect the high regularization point with \(\mathrm{\overline{S}_w =1}\) by a straight line and use that slope (yes, there is a kink :-( ).

For not-regularized part:

This is equivalent to \(\mathrm{ \frac{\partial p_C}{\partial \overline{S}_w} = -\frac{1}{\alpha} (\overline{S}_w^{-1/m} - 1)^{1/n - } \overline{S}_w^{-1/m} / \overline{S}_w / m }\)

Parameters

swe	Effective saturation of the wetting phase \(\mathrm{\overline{S}_w}\)
params	A container object that is populated with the appropriate coefficients for the respective law. Therefore, in the (problem specific) spatialParameters first, the material law is chosen, and then the params container is constructed accordingly. Afterwards the values are set there, too.

Note: Instead of undefined behaviour if swe is not in the valid range, we return a valid number, by clamping the input.

high saturation: connect the high regularization point with \(\mathrm{\overline{S}_w =1}\) by a straight line and use that slope (yes, there is a kink :-( ).

For not-regularized part:

Parameters

		Scalar	swe
	)

inlinestaticinherited

Regularized version of the relative permeability for the nonwetting phase of the medium implied by the van Genuchten parameterization.

for \(\mathrm{0 \leq \overline{S}_w \leq 0.05}\): use a spline as interpolation

Parameters

params	A container object that is populated with the appropriate coefficients for the respective law. Therefore, in the (problem specific) spatialParameters first, the material law is chosen, and then the params container is constructed accordingly. Afterwards the values are set there, too.

Note: Instead of undefined behaviour if pc is not in the valid range, we return a valid number, by clamping the input.; See e.g. Dury, Fischer, Schulin (1999) for application of Mualem model to nonwetting rel. perm.

◆ pc() [1/2]

static Scalar Dumux::RegularizedVanGenuchtenOfTemperature< ScalarT, ParamsT >::pc	(	const Params &	params,
		const Scalar &	Swe,
		const Scalar &	temperature
	)

inlinestatic

A regularized van Genuchten capillary pressure-saturation curve as a function of temperature.

The standard regularized version of the van Genuchten law is used and subsequantially scaled by some more or less empirical fit: WRR, Grant(2003) --> see range of validity (==fit range) in the paper ! <–

Parameters

Swe	The mobile saturation of the wetting phase.
params	A container object that is populated with the appropriate coefficients for the respective law. Therefore, in the (problem specific) spatialParameters first, the material law is chosen, and then the params container is constructed accordingly. Afterwards the values are set there, too.

◆ pc() [2/2]

static Scalar Dumux::RegularizedVanGenuchten< ScalarT, RegularizedVanGenuchtenParams< ScalarT > >::pc	(	const Params &	params,
		Scalar	swe
	)

inlinestaticinherited

A regularized van Genuchten capillary pressure-saturation curve.

regularized part:

low saturation: extend the \(\mathrm{p_c(S_w)}\) curve with the slope at the regularization point (i.e. no kink).
high saturation: connect the high regularization point with \(\mathrm{\overline{S}_w =1}\) by a straight line (yes, there is a kink :-( ).

For not-regularized part:

Van Genuchten's empirical capillary pressure <-> saturation function is given by \(\mathrm{ p_C = (\overline{S}_w^{-1/m} - 1)^{1/n}/\alpha }\)

Parameters

swe	Effective saturation of the wetting phase \(\mathrm{\overline{S}_w}\)
params	A container object that is populated with the appropriate coefficients for the respective law. Therefore, in the (problem specific) spatialParameters first, the material law is chosen, and then the params container is constructed accordingly. Afterwards the values are set there, too.

Note: Instead of undefined behaviour if swe is not in the valid range, we return a valid number, by clamping the input. Note that for pc(swe = 0.0) = inf, have a look at RegularizedVanGenuchten if this is a problem.

◆ sw()

static Scalar Dumux::RegularizedVanGenuchten< ScalarT, RegularizedVanGenuchtenParams< ScalarT > >::sw	(	const Params &	params,
		Scalar	pc
	)

inlinestaticinherited

A regularized van Genuchten saturation-capillary pressure curve.

regularized part:

low saturation: extend the \(\mathrm{p_c(S_w)}\) curve with the slope at the regularization point (i.e. no kink).
high saturation: connect the high regularization point with \(\mathrm{\overline{S}_w =1}\) by a straight line (yes, there is a kink :-( ).

The according quantities are obtained by exploiting theorem of intersecting lines.

For not-regularized part:

This is the inverse of the capillary pressure-saturation curve: \(\mathrm{ \overline{S}_w = {p_C}^{-1} = ((\alpha p_C)^n + 1)^{-m} }\)

Parameters

pc	Capillary pressure \(\mathrm{p_C}\) in \(\mathrm{[Pa]}\)
params	A container object that is populated with the appropriate coefficients for the respective law. Therefore, in the (problem specific) spatialParameters first, the material law is chosen, and then the params container is constructed accordingly. Afterwards the values are set there, too.

Returns: The effective saturation of the wetting phase \(\mathrm{\overline{S}_w}\)

Note: Instead of undefined behaviour if pc is not in the valid range, we return a valid number, i.e. sw(pc < 0.0) = 0.0, by clamping the input to the physical bounds.
