Symmetry reduction of equations for solute transport in porous media

Abstract:
Classical point symmetry analysis of the solute transport equation in streamline coodinates is carried out. This equation with both point water source and point vortex flow admits a number of classical Lie point symmetries. Symmetry reduction and other techniques lead to construction of new non-radial invariant solutions.
