Abstract: GMS and TOUGH2 are the famous softwares in the field of groundwater numerical simulation. Although TOUGH2 has the strong ability of numerical calculation, it lacks the friendly interface for pre- and post-process. With the powerful function of pre- and post-process in GMS and the conceptual modeling approach to construct the three dimension model, this paper converts the numerical model of GMS/MODFLOW (including gridding data, rocks property, initial and boundary data) into that of TOUGH2 for numerical calculation. Two examples (flat aquifers and variation elevation of aquifers) are used to analyze the difference of results between GMS/MODFLOW and TOUGH2. The results indicate that this method is elegant to construct complex model fast for TOUGH2 and the difference is small which proves the high credibility for those two softwares. At the same time, this method can take individual advantage of the softwares and provide the feasibility to conduct more complex multiphase flow simulations.

Key words: numerical simulation, GMS, TOUGH2, three dimension model, comparison of simulations
