  Diffusion and dissolution in a reactive porous medium: Mathematical modelling and numerical simulations
   
  Moszkowicz, P; Pousin, J; Sanchez, F
   
  In this work a simple mathematical model for diffusion and dissolution in reactive porous medium is presented. The case of lime and lead in solid phase enclosed in cement matrices is considered more specifically. A numerical method based on finite difference and on a marching technique is proposed and some numerical results are provided. In a simple case, the results obtained are compared with numerical results available in literature. (C) 1996 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
