Example 2: Migration of mineral dissolution/precipitation fronts
Comparison of simulated concentration profiles (after 21000-s simulation time) between PHT3D (dotted lines) and MT1D (solid lines) for the mineral dissolution/precipitation test problem by Engesgaard and Kipp (1992). PHT3D results are plotted as dotted and MST1D results as solid lines.
