“…The dissolution rate, for larger inclinations angles, which is the quantity of interest for predicting the dissolution time of carbon dioxide after injection, is found to be given by the diffusive dissolution rate, F diffusive , for times up to t = 1.5 × 10 5 , in agreement with LSA results. A similar trend was also observed by Wen and Chini, 28,29 for the problem of thermal convection in an inclined porous medium subject to a constant temperature difference. In a quite similar fashion, in their first study, 28 the Nusselt number, Nu, is only weakly dependent on θ for θ < 20 • , although there is a slight increase up to a maximum around θ = 10 • .…”
