Code Verification: Engesgaard Benchmark

Abstract

The OGS#IPhreeqc coupling interface was tested and verified using several benchmarks which include degradation of chlorinated hydrocarbons (van Breukelen et al., Environ. Sci. Technol. 39(11), 4189--4197, 2005), mineral precipitation/dissolution (Engesgaard and Kipp, Water Resour. Res. 28(10), 2829--2843, 1992) and uranium leaching These benchmarks were described in details in He et al. (Geosci. Model. Dev. 8(10), 3333--3348, 2015).
