Hi Brian,
The model finished to completion but I still have the same discrepency where the Rock Mass = ~3000 wt% (30 wt fraction) under System Parameters in the output. In Minerals output I added up the total vol% of minerals which = 7.164 wt% max and the 'Mass H2O' (in System Parametrs) = ~93.2 wt% for background in the aquifer and down to ~90.4 wt% at the injection well. Some of the minerals I added to the Input tab are less than new minerals by an order of magnitude (eg. witherite (new min) = 0.6635 vol% versus quartz = 0.06702 vol% (I Input 4.8 wt%)). These result are nearly identical to previous model runs I have tried. Again the porosity, pH, species concentrations, temperature, etc all look reasonable.
...I tried to change the mineral wt% to 1000% to compensate but I get an error saying 'Mineral volume in node 0 is greater than node volume'.
...I calculated the volume of each mineral in cm3 per 10x10x10 meter node and got some reasonable mineral wt% for all the minerals. The Rock Mass still reports 3000% so not sure what is happening there. Everything else looks ok so far. Is there a vol% units option in the Initial tab as you suggested so that the porosity is directly tied to mineral volumes?
Thanks for your help,
Mathew
