Permeability alteration due to mineral dissolution in partially saturated fractures
[1] During reactive fluid flow in saturated fractures, the relative rates of dissolved mineral transport and local reactions strongly influence local aperture alterations and the resulting changes in fracture permeability (or transmissivity). In the presence of an entrapped residual nonaqueous phase (e.g., CO2 or oil), the spatial distribution of the entrapped phase will influence flow and tran...
متن کاملExperimental observations of deformation caused by mineral dissolution in variable-aperture fractures
[1] Problems such as CO2 sequestration, petroleum production and nuclear waste isolation involve the potential for rock-water reactions. Mineral alteration resulting from reactive fluid flow can lead to significant changes to fracture transport properties. At depth, these processes are further influenced by stresses in the host rock. To quantitatively explore these coupled processes, we built a...
متن کاملFracture Permeability Alteration due to Chemical and Mechanical Processes: A Coupled High-Resolution Model
Reactive fluid-flow experiments in fractures subjected to normal stress suggest the potential for either increased or decreased permeability resulting from fracture-surface dissolution. We present a computational model that couples mechanical deformation and chemical alteration of fractures subjected to constant normal stress and reactive fluid flow. The model explicitly represents micro-scale ...
متن کاملAxi-Symmetric Deformation Due to Various Sources in Saturated Porous Media with Incompressible Fluid
The general solution of equations of saturated porous media with incompressible fluid for two dimensional axi-symmetric problem is obtained in the transformed domain. The Laplace and Hankel transforms have been used to investigate the problem. As an application of the approach concentrated source and source over circular region have been taken to show the utility of the approach. The transforme...
متن کاملApplication of mineral chemistry to mineralization and alteration evaluation in Zn-Pb Angouran deposit, Zanjan
Angouran zinc and lead deposit is located about 135 km west of Zanjan city, in the northwest of the Sanandaj-Sirjan structural zone The results of this study indicate that the dolomitic alteration occurred in the carbonate hanging-wall and the presence of ankerite in the schist footwall. The main host of ore deposit is metamorphic carbonate. The Angouran dolomite is secondary and hydrothermal. ...
