Visualizing the results on the infinite element domains does not add value to the plots. Focus on the region close to the pond. Hide the infinite element domains from the plots with the following steps.
Study 2 / Solution 2 (sol2)
1
In the Model Builder under Results expand the Data Sets  node.
2
Right-click Study2/Solution 2 , and select Selection .
3
In the Settings window locate the Geometric Entity Selection section. From the Geometric entity level list, choose Domain.
4
Select Domain 1 and 2 only. This will remove the Infinite Element domains from the plot groups.
Start with reproducing Figure 5.
Pressure Head 3D
1
In the Results toolbar click Result Templates .
2
Go to the Result Templates window and expand the Richard’s Equation node under Study 2/Solution 2. Select Pressure, 3D and click Add Result Template. This adds the plot to the Result node.
3
In the Model Builder, under Results click Pressure, 3D. In the Settings window for the 3D Plot Group type Pressure Head, 3D (dl)in the Label text field.
4
In the Model Builder expand the Pressure Head, 3D node, then click Surface. In the Settings window locate the Coloring and Style section. From the Color table list choose Viridis. From the Color table transformation list choose Reverse.
5
Right-click Pressure Head, 3D and choose Contour . In the Settings window locate the Expression section and click Replace Expression . Choose Component 1>Richard’s Equation > Velocity and pressure > dl.Hp - Pressure head -m.
6
Locate the Levels section. In the Total levels text field, type 8.
7
Locate the Coloring and Style section. From the Color table list choose GrayScale. Select the Level labels checkbox.
8
From the Label color list choose white. Clear the Color table checkbox. Then click Plot .
Add a new plot to show the effective saturation and velocity field at different times. For the effective saturation a predefined plot is available in the Result Templates window.
Effective saturation
1
Go to the Result Templates window and expand the Richard’s Equation node under Study 2/Solution 2. Double-click on Effective Saturation.
This adds the plot to the Results node.
2
Expand the Effective Saturation node and go the Surface 1 node.
3
In the Settings window, locate the Coloring and Style section and from the Color table type list choose Discrete.
4
Right-click the Surface 1 node and choose Solution Array . This subnode allows to plot several results in one plot group.
5
In the Settings window, locate the Data section and from the Time selection list choose From list. Mark 0.3 and 1 in the Times (d) list.
6
Click the Effective saturation node. On the Effective saturation toolbar click Arrow Surface .
7
In the Settings window, verify that dl.u and dl.w are the expressions in the R- and Z- component text fields.
These are the components of Darcy’s velocity field.
8
Locate the Coloring and Style section and from the Color list, choose White.
9
Select the Scale factor checkbox. In the associated field, type 20000.
10
Click to expand the Plot Array section and select the Manual Indexing checkbox.
11
Right-click the Arrow Surface 1 node and choose Solution Array .
12
In the Settings window, locate the Data section and from the Time selection list choose From list. Mark 0.3 and 1 in the Times (d) list.
13
Click Plot  and Zoom extents . Compare the plot in the Graphics window with Figure 6.
Concentration comparison
1
Go to the Result Templates window and expand the Transport of Diluted Species in Porous Media node under Study 2/Solution 2. Select Concentration, a (tds) and click Add Result Template.
2
In the Results toolbar click Result Templates to close the Result Templates window.
3
In the Model Builder under Results click on the Concentration, a (tds) node. In the Settings window, type Concentration comparison in the Label text field.
4
In the Settings window, locate the Plot Array section. From the Array type list, select Square.
5
Expand the Concentration comparison node.
6
Right-click on the Arrow Surface 1 ()node and choose Disable .
7
Right-click the Surface 1 node and choose Solution Array .
8
In the Settings window, locate the Data section, and from the Time selection list choose From list. Mark 1, 5, and 10 in the Times (d) list.
9
Locate the Plot Array section. From the Array axis list, choose y.
10
Right-click the Surface 1 node and choose Duplicate.
11
In the Settings window of Surface 2 locate the Expression section and type c_asx in the Expression test field.
12
In the Model Builder, select the Concentration comparison node. In the Settings window, locate the Plot Array section.
13
From the Displacement list choose Absolute. In the Row displacement field type -1.5[m], and in the Column displacement field, type 1.5[m]. The negative value ensures that the earliest time step is plotted on the top of the plot group.
14
Click the Plot  button. Click the Zoom extents button in the Graphics window.
You can also visualize the concentration distributions through time starting from the original concentration plot from the Result Templates. In the Model Builder, under Export , you can generate animations in GIF, Flash, and AVI format.
Alternatively, add animations by clicking on the Animation button in the Results toolbar and select Player .
