New particle tracking method for 2D steady-state groundwater flow around wells: A modified algorithm using the stream function

•Stream-function-based (SFB) method is developed for 2D particle tracking along exact streamlines.•The branch cut effect of multivariable stream function around wells is avoided.•Unlike existing methods, the SFB method does not lead to accumulative errors in the particle position. Particle tracking...
