Dear, Dumux comunity My name is Denis , I was exploring different Dumux applications for CO2 storage, went through couple papers , but didn’t find information about including the drying front into simulation, but even it was mentioned that this behaviour was neglected. By mentioning dry-out front I mean the continuous injection of dry scCO2 vaporizes the remaining formation brine in the swept zone, which persistently increases the concentration of dissolved salt. When the salt concentration reaches the solubility limit, it precipitates out of the brine. For example , as it is done in ECO2N module of TOUGH2 or it was done in this paper (https://doi.org/10.3929/ethz-b-000410774 <https://doi.org/10.3929/ethz-b-000410774>), "A Numerical Model for Formation Dry-out During CO2 Injection…”. In the binary coefficients of BrineCo2 fluid system all the solubilities are included, so from my understanding only right EOS required and the precipitation can be modeled in the same way as in 2pncmin model? Or could you please point me in the right direction? I went through biomineralization example , but it is slightly different. Sorry if my understanding is a little bit primitive. Thank you in advance.
Kind regards, Denis.
