Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

Concentration fields appearing in injection of solutions of radioactive substances into deep-lying strata have been calculated in the zero and first approximations on the basis of solutions constructed by asymptotic methods according to the concept of “exact, on the average,” solutions. The residual term of the expansion has been evaluated; the conditions under which the first approximation is highly accurate have been found.
