Case B: Stuttgart result 3
These results were submitted by Stuttgart. For more information about Stuttgart and how the simulations were performed, see the Stuttgart group page.
Overview animation
The animation below shows the migration of CO₂ in the domain over time, plotted as the mass fraction of CO₂ in the liquid phase. The animation starts at the initial state and ends at the end of the migration period. We also plot the amount of dissolved CO₂ in the liquid phase in the two reporting boxes A and B, as well as the mobile CO₂ in the gas phase. Note that the playback speed is slower during injection than during migration.
CO₂ mass fraction in liquid
The mass fraction of CO₂ in the liquid phase is shown below.

Water density
The water density depends on the pressure, temperature and the amount of CO₂ that has been dissolved in the water phase
