Rp. Rastogi et R. Khare, OSCILLATORY DOMAIN IN A SIMPLE REACTION MODEL, Indian journal of chemistry. Sect. A: Inorganic, physical, theoretical & analytical, 33(1), 1994, pp. 1-3
The reaction model in a continuous flow stirred tank reactor (CSTR) co
mprising (i) the autocatalytic reaction A+B --> 2B and (ii) reaction B
--> C obeying fractional order kinetics has been examined when the ra
te of second step = k2B(n) where n has any fractional value between 0
and 1. Limit cycle oscillations are obtained in specific cases. Influe
nce of reduced residence time and the magnitude of n on the occurrence
of oscillations has been examined.
