Problem concerning the injection of a solvent into a porous medium subjected to “sclerosis”

Abstract

The problem on injecting a solvent into a porous medium clogged up because of the deposition of a solid phase (paraffins, bitumens) is considered. Within the framework of the schemes of plane-one-dimensional and radial-symmetric filtration, self-similar solutions are obtained that describe the distributions of density and velocity as well as evolution of a cleaned zone. Numerical evaluations are presented for a quantity which determines the laws of motion of the cleaned zone boundary as function of the parameters of the stratum and the injected solvent.
