TL;DR: In this article, a microcontinuum approach is proposed to simulate the dissolution of solid minerals at the pore scale under single-phase flow conditions, which employs a Darcy-Brinkman-Stokes formulation and locally averaged conservation laws combined with immersed boundary conditions for the chemical reaction at the solid surface.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of sub-resolution porosity on the macroscopic (Darcy scale) flow properties of the rock has been analyzed using high-resolution X-ray microtomography.

TL;DR: These results establish a strong benchmark for the validation and testing of pore-scale codes developed for the simulation of flow and reactive transport with evolving geometries, and underscore the significant advances seen in the last decade in tools and approaches for simulating this type of problem.

TL;DR: In this paper, the pore-scale velocity distributions are obtained for single-phase flow in porous media with a typical pore size of 5-40µm at a resolution of 1.8 μ m × 1. 8 μ m vector grid.

TL;DR: In this article, a micro-continuum approach is proposed to simulate the dissolution of solid minerals at the pore scale in the presence of multiple fluid phases, using an extended Darcy-Brinkman-Stokes formulation that accounts for the interfacial tension between the two immiscible fluid phases and the moving contact line at the mineral surface.
