Enhanced steady-state dissolution flux in reactive convective dissolution

Abstract: Chemical reactions can accelerate, slow down or even be at the very origin of the development of dissolution-driven convection in partially miscible stratifications when they impact the density profile in the host fluid phase. We numerically analyze the dynamics of this reactive convective dissolution in the fully developed non-linear regime for a phase A dissolving into a host layer containing a dissolved reactant B. We show for a general A + B → C reaction in solution, that the dynamics vary with the Rayleig… Show more

“…When the product C is less dense than the reactant B (DR CB o 0), there exists a local minimum in the density profile due to the formation of C at the reaction front and the density profile is non-monotonic. Although the stabilizing non-monotonic profiles were studied previously, 18 we further differentiate here regimes IA and IB based on the amplitude of the end point values (r I , r b ). In regime IA, the density at the interface r I is smaller than or equal to the initial density of the host solution r b (r I r r b ) while in regime IB, the density at the interface is larger than or equal to the initial density of the host solution (r I 4 r b ).…”

“…Species A is consumed by the reaction to produce the denser C. The fingering pattern has been shown to be mainly due to the sinking of dense C towards the bottom and by continuity, the displacement of B from the bottom towards the reaction front. 18 This implies the presence of more reactant B close to the interface to react with A which increases the dissolution flux of A. The rapid merging and birth of fingers enhances the mixing between the two phases and leads to strong convective mixing in the host phase.…”
