This release includes bug fixes and enhancements for the TOUGH2 and TOUGH2-MP simulators.

Changes since PetraSim 5.1.1710 include:

  • Fixed a bug in TOUGH2 that caused an access violation in models that used more than 4/5 of the maximum number of sources and sinks.
  • Updated TOUGH2 binaries to have a limit of 50,000 sources/sinks and 1 million source/sink history pairs.
  • TOUGH2-MP binaries now use a calculated (i.e. problem-specific) CG solver iteration limit.
  • Fixed a bug in TOUGH2-MP that caused EOS2 to use the incorrect molecular weight for CO2 in mass calculations (44.0 instead of 18.016).
  • Fixed a bug that prevented TOUGH2 simulations from starting when cell flow rates had been loaded from a file.

Changes since PetraSim 5.1.1416 include:

  • New capability to specify surface injection and production flux.
  • Added new TOUGH2 example that demonstrates natural state and production analyses using a surface contour and wells.
    Initial State and Production Analysis in a Layered Model
  • Fixed bug that caused a crash when changing to defaultĀ Brine Data inĀ EOS7R.
  • Changed TMVOC/T2VOC CHEMP tab names to be consistent with TMVOC/T2VOC manuals.

PetraSim 5.1.1416

Posted: February 16th, 2011

PetraSim 5.1.1408

Posted: February 8th, 2011

This release fixes a bug in PetraSim’s Load Well Flow Rates feature and includes several other minor improvements. … Continue Reading

PetraSim 5.1.1402

Posted: February 2nd, 2011

This release fixes a TOUGHREACT input file format error. In models that contained more than one linear Kd zone, PetraSim was omitting the zone terminating asterisk – causing TOUGHREACT to halt prematurely. This update corrects the formatting error, allowing TOUGHREACT models with multiple linear Kd zones.
