The time-dependent source of contaminant concentration is considered at the origin and at the other end of the aquifer is supposed to be zero. Initially, aquifer is not solute free which means that the solute concentration exits in groundwater system and it is assumed as a uniform concentration. The aquifer is considered homogeneous and semi-infinite. The time-dependent velocity expressions are considered. The result may be used as preliminary predictive tools in groundwater management and benchmark the numerical code and solutions.展开更多
