ABSTRACT. During the construction and operational phase of a radioactive waste repository, underground drifts will be subjected to ventilation, a fact that could cause de-saturation and oxidation of the rock. In order to evaluate these phenomena and their impact on rock properties, a Ventilation Experiment (VE) was performed on Opalinus Clay (OC) at the Mont Terri underground laboratory in Switzerland. Here we present a multiphase flow and reactive transport model of the VE test which has been used to interpret hydrodynamic and geochemical data. The model slightly overestimates measured relative humidity near the rock interface after de-saturation, probably due to uncertainties in the turbulence factor used to calculate vapor flow.
