Abstract:At present, numerical method and analytical method are the methods most commonly used for solving groundwater problems. Although numerical method has been widely used for its wide applicability and higher simulation, the analytical method has been one of the first choice for its simple and easy to use. Taking Zhanhua power plant as an example, the pollution caused by longterm and shortterm leakage of pollutants have been predicated in this paper. The application suitability of the analytical method in the study area has been discussed based on analyzing the differences between the predictions results gained by using two methods. It will provide reference for the application of this method.
