The network simulation method, based on the formal equivalence between physical systems and electrical networks, solves numerical problems of relatively mathematical complexity in a versatile, efficient and computationally fast way. In this paper, the method is applied for the first time to the design of a general purpose model for simulating two-dimensional transient density-driven flow and solute transport through porous media, a mathematical model made up by coupled, nonlinear differential equations. Using the Boussinesq approximation and the stream function formulation, the model is used to solve two typical problems related with groundwater flows. Isochlor concentration and stream function curves are presented and successfully compared with those of other authors. Simulation is carried out using the digital computer program Pspice with relatively low computing times.
