Abstract

We introduce a novel modeling of phase transitions in thermal flow in porous media by using hyperbolic system of balance laws, instead of system of conservation laws. We are interested in two different behaviors of the balance system: the long time behavior, in which we study the solution with fixed relaxation term and very large time; and the behavior of the solution when the relaxation term is taken to zero and the time is fixed. We also are interested in solving the question: “Does this balance system tend to the conservation system under equilibrium hypothesis?”. To answer this question, we introduce a projection technique for the wave groups appearing in the system of equations and we study the behavior of each group. For a particular Riemann datum, using the projection method, we show the existence of a decaying traveling profile supported by source terms and we analyze the behavior of this solution. We corroborate our analysis with numerical experiments.
