Line-doublets#

Line-doublets are used to simulate leaky and impermeable walls. The flux normal to an impermeable wall is zero. The flux through a leaky wall (the normal component \(q_{n}\)) is defined as

\[q_n = (h^- - h^+)/c\]

where \(h^-\) and \(h^-\) are the heads on the minus and plus sides of the wall, and \(c\) is the resistance against flow through the wall. An impermeable wall is equivalent to a leaky wall with a resistance that is equal to infinity.

  1. ImpermeableWall is used to simulate one straight impermeable wall

  2. ImpermeableWallString is an impermeable wall represented by a poly line of straight segments

  3. LeakyWall is used to simulate one straight leaky wall

  4. LeakyWallString is a leaky wall represented by a poly line of straight segments
