Description
Summary:The software TOUGH2Viewer 2.0, originally available since 2012, is an enhanced visualization software specifically designed to visualize the results of TOUGH simulations performed using structured and fully unstructured 3D Voronoi grids. 3D Voronoi grids permit a great degree of flexibility when accurate numerical simulations are required. The TOUGH family of simulators represents a set of software well-known worldwide for numerical modeling and simulation for coupled transport of water, vapor, non-condensable gas and heat in porous and fractured media. Nevertheless, TOUGH has no native enhanced pre- and post-processing tools, and several pre- and post-processing tools have been developed. Using TOUGH2Viewer the users can interactively navigate the model, a 3-dimensional virtual environment, by means of a Graphical User Interface (GUI). This new version of TOUGH2viewer allows the editing of numerical models by dedicated GUIs, adding pre-processing capabilities.
