Abstract
The stirring-induced bifurcation at low stirring rate S-0 = 23 rpm of the reaction volume has been observed for the chaotic regime in the Be lousov-Zhabotinsky oscillating chemical reaction (malonic acid-bromate -celium(III)-sulfuric acid) in a continuously stirred tank reactor in premixing mode. This bifurcation is characterized by a stepwise growth of the macroscopic spatial concentration gradients that is shown by t he use of the time dependencies of the potential difference between tw o platinum electrodes.
