Abstract
It is now well established that the large compressibility of supercritical fluids is responsible for the strong enhancement of the thermo-acoustic heating, leading to the speeding up of the heat transport thanks to the piston effect instead of the expected slowing down. We show in this paper, through numerical simulations, that the hydrodynamics behavior of supercritical fluids also couples with the critical behavior of the solubility of solids to cause the release of a heterogeneous reaction at solid surfaces in dilute binary supercritical mixtures.
