TOUGH2 Example Problems
Download the TOUGH2 example manual. This manual includes detailed step-by-step instructions using PetraSim to run TOUGH2 example problems.
-
Five Spot Geothermal Production and Injection (EOS 1). Problem 4 in the TOUGH2 user's manual. Input and results files.
-
3D Contoured Top (EOS 1). Demonstrates use of a contour file to define the geometry of the surface of the reservoir. It also demonstrates a two part analysis, with an initial state calculation followed by a production analysis. Initial state input and results. Well table data for the production analysis. Production input and results.
-
Heat Sweep in a Vertical Fracture (EOS 1). Problem 3 in the TOUGH2 user's manual. Steady state input and results. Transient input and results.
-
Heat Pipe in Cylindrical Geometry (EOS 3). Problem 2 in the TOUGH2 user's manual. Input and results files.
-
Variable Salinity Problem (EOS 7). Problem 6 in the TOUGH2 user's manual. Input and results files.
-
VOC Contamination (EOS7R). Demonstrates the use of extra cells, modeling of an atmospheric boundary condition, and establishing an initial gravity/capillary equilibrium condition. Problem 8 in the TOUGH2 user's manual. Initial state and transient files.
-
Production from Geothermal Reservoir (EWASG). Problem 12 in the TOUGH2 user's manual. Input and results files.

Steam Table
This link provides an Excel spreadsheet to calculate steam properties. Extract the steam67.dll and steam67_metric.xls files. You can run by opening the steam67_metric.xls file from within Excel (File/Open), not by double clicking. To enable double clicking, copy the steam67.dll to the c:\windows directory. You will need to enable macros.
This is an implementation of the 1967 ASME steam tables in an Excel spreadsheet. This comes from WinSim.com through KORF Software with metric conversion added by Thunderhead Engineering.
