Materials propertes for porous rocks in PetraSim

[Maciej]

Dear All

My question touches how density and specific heat is defined in PetraSim. When I put density and specific heat for high porous rocks like clays, shales and others, material properties shall be typed considering dry rock, or fluid-saturated as it usually occurs ? For a porous rock it is a great difference.

Thanks for all replies.

The rock properties used by TOUGH2 are for dry rock.
