Abstract
This article discusses a three-dimensional groundwater flow model of a deep disposal facility at Severny test site. The three-dimensional model is a part of the certified software GEOPOLIS, based on the hydrogeological code GeRa (Geomigration of Radionuclides) serving as the calculation engine. This study describes the hydrogeological patterning of the groundwater flow model, as well as the results of calibration and verification of the model water heads with respect to the data of monitoring for more than 40 years of the deep repository exploitation. The article begins with a brief overview of the previously developed hydrogeological models of this object and continues with a description of the geological structure of the territory, and with a substantiation of the boundaries and parameters of the model. The results of groundwater flow modeling, model calibration, verification and estimation of discrepancy between the model results and monitoring data are shown. The comparison of the modeled and observed water heads in the stationary conditions (before the start of injection) and during operation of the deep repository allows making conclusion on the quality of calibration.
