Shrnutí:The numerical simulation of flow and reactive transport in porous media with complex domains is nontrivial. This paper presents a method to implement fully unstructured grid capabilities into the well-established software ParMIN3P-THCm, a process-based numerical model designed for the investigation of subsurface fluid flow and multicomponent reactive transport in variably saturated porous media with parallelization capability. The enhanced code, MIN3P-HPC, is modularized to support different cell types, spatial discretization methods and gradient reconstruction methods. MIN3P-HPC uses a vertex-centered control volume method with consideration of both vertex-based and cell-based material properties (e.g., permeability). A flexible parallelization scheme based on domain decomposition and thread acceleration was implemented, which allows the use of OpenMP, MPI and hybrid MPI-OpenMP, making optimized use of computer resources ranging from desktop PCs to distributed memory supercomputers. The code was verified by comparing the results obtained with the unstructured grid version to those produced by the structured grid version. Numerical accuracy was also verified against analytical solutions for 2D and 3D solute transport, and by comparison with third-party software using different cell types. Parallel efficiency of OpenMP, MPI and hybrid MPI-OpenMP versions was examined through a series of solute transport and reactive transport test cases. The results demonstrate the versatility and enhanced performance of MIN3P-HPC for reactive transport simulation.
