The major changes in the FEHM application from V3.3.0 (2015) to this release V3.3.1 are: further developments for macros SALT and RPL/RLPM. Improvements added related to TRXN, CDEN and CO2 coupling with tracers. GDKM input was modified to have a general formulation equivalent to DPDP and direction-specific fracture formulation. New humidity related boundary conditions were added to BOUN including HUF (flowing humidity), HU (fixed humidity), TH (humidity temperature), and PH (humidity pressure). Minor code modifications were made to improve the performance of FEHM simulations.

Known code bugs fixed:

  1. Fix the pressure BC issue (remember to use PA in BOUN)
  2. Fixed phase change guess with low water vapor pressure.
  3. Minor fixes to improve read/write of various files and the handling of input parameters.
  4. Change in startup.f resolved a simulation result discrepancy between AMANZI/analytical solution and FEHM.
  5. All V3.* versions of FEHM will report negative coupling coefficients if they exist. The older V2 releases do not report on coupling coefficients. This difference in reporting is not a bug in either release, just a difference in the information that is written.

Known issues:

  1. Macro DVA has a forced explicit update to fix possible derivative problems, needs further checking.
  2. The vector files written for contouring are the control volume interface volumetric flux values mapped back on to the mesh nodes. The algorithm for this mapping will have errors most visible for non-orthogonal meshes.
  3. This mac test suite was created on Mavericks and some comparison binary files are no longer compatible with OS Yosemite or newer. For these tests, results need to be checked and compared individually. FEHM V3.1.1 results were checked and all tests passed.
