Abstract

DuMux is a free and open-source simulator for flow and transport processes in porous media, based on the Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment (DUNE). Its main intention is to provide a sustainable and consistent framework for the implementation and application of model concepts, constitutive relations, discretizations, and solvers. The paper provides an overview of DuMux with the focus on software-related aspects. Selected examples highlight the multi-scale and the parallel capabilities.

► DuMux is an open-source simulator for flow and transport processes in porous media. ► It is based on the Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment (DUNE). ► DuMux provides a framework for model concepts and constitutive relations. ► Several multi-scale and multi-physics strategies have been implemented. ► A study on the parallel performance is carried out for a CO2 benchmark problem.
