Abstract

In this work, the problem of carbon dioxide injection into a water saturated permeable layer is investigated. Using direct numerical simulations, we evaluate the CO2plume extension in the layer for different parameters of injection. The simulation results obtained for the complete mathematical model are compared with the approximate self-similar solution of the problem. The conditions of applicability of the self-similar asymptotics are determined. The computational capability of the model and the parallel efficiency of numerical simulations are estimated.
