چکیده
We propose a model for transport of solutes in a porous medium participating in a dissolu-tion/precipitation reaction, in general not in equilibrium. For an unbounded spatial domain, travelling wave solutions exist, if and only if the charge distribution is constant and we deal with a dissolution situation. The travelling wave in fact exhibits a sharp dissolution front. The wave is given in a nearly explicit manner. Also for the limit cases of equilibrium reaction or no dispersion, travelling waves are established under the same conditions, but with diierent qualitative properties.

متن کاملAn analysis of crystal dissolution fronts in flows through porous media part 2: incompatible boundary conditions
A model for transport of solutes in a porous medium participating in a dissolution– precipitation reaction, in general not in equilibrium, is studied. Ignoring diffusion– dispersion the initial value problem for piecewise constant initial states is studied, which e.g. for ionic species include a change of the ionic composition of the solution. The mathematical solution, nearly explicitly found ...
متن کاملCore-scale description of porous media dissolution during acid injection – Part I: Theoretical development
Dissolution mechanisms in porous media may lead to unstable dissolution fronts (“wormholing”). It has been shown in the literature that Darcy-scale models may reproduce all the characteristics of such dissolution patterns. This paper considers the core-scale averaged behavior of these Darcy-scale dissolution models. The form of core-scale equations is discussed based on the volume averaging of ...
متن کاملA Numerical Scheme for the Pore-Scale Simulation of Crystal Dissolution and Precipitation in Porous Media
In this paper we analyze a numerical scheme for a dissolution and precipitation in porous media. We focus here on the chemistry, which is modeled by a parabolic problem that is coupled through the boundary conditions to an ordinary differential inclusion defined on the boundary. We use a regularization approach for constructing a semi-implicit scheme that is stable and convergent. For dealing w...
متن کاملDiffusive crystal dissolution
Crystal dissolution may include three component processes: interface reaction, diffusion and complications due to convection. We report here a theoretical and experimental study of crystal dissolution in silicate melt without convection. A reaction-diffusion equation is developed and numerically solved. The results show that during non-convective crystal dissolution in silicate melt, the interf...
