Carbonate Matrix acidizing in order to improve or increase initial permeability, leads to different dissolution patterns under different operating and environmental conditions. In a specific rock / reactive fluid system, when a reactive fluid injects into the system in an optimal velocity, the dissolution pattern proceeds like a finger, names Wormhole. Formation of Wormhole is known as a success in acidizing process, because of its optimum porosity and permeability evolution and minimum pore volume injected of reactive fluid to breakthrough. So prediction of optimum injection velocity and analysis of dissolution patterns variation by change in operational and environmental conditions,... 

Carbonate reservoir acidizing is one of the most important well stimulation operations that has been widely used in recent years. Modeling the operation prior to any laboratory tests has always been one of the motivations of scientists in recent years due to the complexity of modeling to consider both mass transfer and reaction phenomena. There are several models have been proposed to simulate the acid injection process in carbonate rocks in recent years, the most important one is the Two-Scale Continuum Model (TSCM). This model utilizes the combination of Darcy-scale transfer and reaction equations and a series of pore scale relations to investigate acid injection into two-dimensional...
