Description

template<class Scalar>
struct Dumux::FluidMatrix::VanGenuchten::Params< Scalar >

The parameter type.

Template Parameters

Scalar

The scalar type

Note

The van Genuchten laws are parameterized with four parameters: $\mathrm{n, m, \alpha, l}$.

• $\mathrm{\alpha}$ shape parameter $\mathrm{[1/Pa]}$
• $\mathrm{m}$ shape parameter $\mathrm{[-]}$
• $\mathrm{n}$ shape parameter $\mathrm{[-]}$
• $\mathrm{l}$ pore-connectivity parameter $\mathrm{[-]}$ of Mualem's relative permeability curve

Note

In the original Mualem (1976) paper the pore-connectivity parameter is called "n". It's referred to as "l" in several later publication of van Genuchten, e.g. van Genuchten (1991), Shaap & van Genuchten (2006).
