Hi Timo,

1. I declared permeability as a scalar. I have not yet tested the case of
tensor permeability in world coordinates. I will do that.

2. To simulate advection-diffusion model in Dumux, I simply modified
properties of fluid in the file in "dumux/material/fluidsystems/"  .
Concretely, I desactivated all pressure-dependence of density, viscosity
and diffusion coefficient. In the isothermal condition, fluid density,
viscosity and diffusion coefficient are constant. The velocity V is
computed by Darcy's law, so it will also be constant.

3. I was not clear. Y in "Y = Ymin" or "Y= Ymax" is Y-coordinate.

4. To estimate the velocity, I looked at the concentration front and
compute it by hand.

Kind regards
Tri Dat
