Dear Dumux Community, I'd like to ask you a quick question about residual saturation, which may seem trivial to you.
In one of my simulations that considers two-phase flow (CO2 model), I set: Swr = 0.3 Snr = 0.05 When I look at the liquid saturation solution obtained, it is given between 0 <= S_w <= 1. Why the minimum value reached by this liquid saturation is 0 ? Shouldn't it be Sw = 0.3 instead with the residual liquid saturation ? Is the output saturation represented by the effective saturation instead of the real liquid saturation ? I tested the same parameters in the co2 model provided in the Dumux tests and it appears to be the same behaviour. The saturation exceeds the residual saturation. I also noticed that this minimum saturation value is different for several mesh sizes. Does this seem consistent to you? Thank you in advance for your answers. Best regards, Nicolas Pillardou
