FEFLOW – More than GroundwaterPrimary development goal: FEFLOW is intented to be
•Easy to use and intuitive – to quickly master everyday groundwater projects,
but at the same time
•Powerful and comprehensive –to model complex subsurface processes.

Application Examples
1. Optimization of landscape water regime
2. Construction of an underground liquefied natural-gas storage system

Agricultural Development PlanningGlietzener Polder, Germany
www.dhi-wasy.de
ObjectivesConcept for landscape water regime that accommodates agricultural, environmental, and general landscape water balance goals:
•Improvement of agricultural conditions
•Sustainment of low-water discharge, securing of minimum discharge in low-water periods•Improvement of groundwater and surface water quality•Flood protection•Improvement of the ecological role of water bodies

Potential for conflict
AgricultureEnvironment
Landscape waterbalance
Conflicting Objectives
www.dhi-wasy.de
Approach
1. Calculation of groundwater and surface water levels applying a coupled GW-SW model for different system states
2. Calculation of depth to groundwater using the groundwater levels and a DEM
3. Intersection of depth to groundwater with defined target levels, definition of areas of conflict
4. Simulation of scenarios lowering the potential for conflict, using the target levels as goal for future planning

Boundary Conditions
www.dhi-wasy.de
Flow (Hydraulic head)
• Dirichlet condition along coastline
• No-flow (zero-value Neumann) condition elsewhere
Transport (Solute concentration)
• Dirichlet (fixed-concentration) condition for infiltrating seawater along coastline
• Zero-value Neumann condition for fluid leaving domain along coastline
• Impermeability condition elsewhere
Boundary Conditions
www.dhi-wasy.de
Internal surfaces of the structure are treated asSeepage face
• Dirichlet condition of fixed atmospheric pressurefor outwarding-pointing head gradient
• No-flow (zero-value Neumann) condition otherwise
Boundary Condtions
www.dhi-wasy.de
Simulation requires successive activation of seepage-face B.C.’s as construction progresses.
New B.C.’s must continuously be introduced during the simulation.
Solution:
Seepage-face activation via a separate module using the FEFLOW Open Programming Interface:
• arbitrary node groups and activation intervals
• arbitrary pressure
• import capability from ASCII files
• saves all information with the problem file
