In this paper, we study the dissolution of a porous formation made of soluble and insoluble materials with various types of Darcy-scale heterogeneities. Based on the assumption of scale separations, i.e., the convective and diffusive Damkohler numbers are smaller than certain limits which are documented in the paper, we apply large-scale upscaling to the Darcy-scale model to develop large-scale equations, which are used to describe the dissolution of porous formations with Darcy-scale heterogeneities. History-dependent closure problems are provided to get the effective parameters in the large-scale model. The large-scale model validity is tested by comparing numerical results for a 1D flow problem in a stratified system and a 2D flow problem in a nodular system to the Darcy-scale ones. The good agreement between results at Darcy and large scales shows the robustness of the large-scale model in representing the Darcy-scale results for the stratified system, even when the dissolution front is very sharp. Large-scale results for the nodular system represent satisfactorily the averaged Darcy-scale behaviors when the dissolution front is relatively thick, i.e., when model assumptions are satisfied, while there may be as expected some discrepancy generated between direct numerical simulations and large-scale results in the case of thin dissolution front. Overall, this study demonstrates the possibility of building a fully homogenized large-scale model incorporating dissolution history effects, and that the resulting large-scale model is capable to catch the main features of the Darcy-scale results within its applicability domain.
