Abstract

The problem of injecting steam into a porous medium saturated with gas is considered. It is believed that the skeleton of a porous medium consists of two components, one of which has a melting point lower than the temperature of the injected vapor. Therefore, this component will undergo a phase transition with additional heat consumption. This type of problem occurs in processes associated with cleaning the porous media from sclerotic plaques, mining bitumen oils, regenerating porous catalysts.
