Abstract An experimental and numerical study was carried out to investigate the
solute removal process through a large-scale fracture plane considering different
flow paths and hydraulic head differences. The visualization techniques were utilized in the experiment to capture the removal process images, which were then
transferred to binary images. The variations in dimensionless concentration,
which is defined as saturation of solute phase, were analyzed. With increasing
hydraulic head difference, the speed of solute removal increases and the dimensionless concentration decreases. The flow paths result in different solute distribution patterns and different mechanisms for solute removal such… More >
