Dual permeability flow simulation

Hi, I am new to OGS. I’d like to find out if OGS can do dual permeability simulation for water flow. I mean solving two Richards’ equations for the same domain of dual soil hydraulic properties. If so, is there an example available for it?

Hi chlijl,

there is no model for the dual continuum so far, only few crude approximations (e.g. transport porosity in the RM process) to handle the dual continuum.

@chljl You may want to have a look to ogs5. There is a process for dual-permeabilty simulation. Here are respective benchmarks.

Thanks for providing this info. Can OGS6 directly read and run the OGS5 project files?
