Migration of gas-liquid inclusions in single crystals of potassium and sodium chlorides

  • 1. Univ of Calif, Berkeley

Description

Natural salt deposits contain small brine inclusions that can be set into motion by a temperature gradient arising from storage of nuclear wastes in the salt. The mechanism of thermal gradient migration of gas-liquid inclusions is analyzed and discussed in this paper. The object of the analysis is to determine the velocity of the two-phase fluid inclusion in the thermal gradient imposed on the solid salt. 17 refs
