Oldenburg et al . have carried out simulations of rapid upward rise of
CO 2 to observe the effects of decompression (see Movies 9.3.1 and
9.3.2 ). These simulations mimic a 500 m column above a plume of CO 2
(see Figure 9.3.2 ). These simulations confi rm that decompression

Simulation of the upward fl ow of CO 2 in a 500 m column (see Figure 9.3.2 ). In this movie,
the boundary conditions on the column are isothermal, so the heat effects are dissi-
pated and play no role. Movie by Curt Oldenburg [9.13]. It can be viewed at : http://www.
