EC Values in Column Experiment

[mek001]

Dear all,
I am trying to create a 1-D flow model with PHREEQC and print the EC value at the output. I divided my column into 10 cells. I want Solution 0 to have only Na and Cl elements and minerals found in the core placed in Equilibrium Phases 1-10. I assumed the sample was saturated, so I just filled the sample with water in Solution 1-10. I assumed CO2 could infiltrate Solution 0, so I also created the Gas Phase. I tried to punch the Electrical Conductivity value by PUNCH with SC, but I failed. It only shows zero values. Meanwhile, I observe the dissolution and precipitation of minerals. Therefore, considering NaCl input and mineral dissolution I expect an EC value higher than 0 at the end. I will be very happy if you can point out my mistake. I use the wateq4f database.

Wateq4f.dat does not have the definitions needed to calculate specific conductance.

Only phreeqc.dat, Amm.dat, and pitzer.dat have the necessary definitions in the SOLUTION_SPECIES data block.
