Abstract

Multiplicity, stability and dynamics for autocatalytic reactions of the type A⋯ → rR + ⋯ with overall rate expression r A = kC A m C R n in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) are studied. Exact multiplicity criteria are defined in the parameter space. Stability analysis shows that no periodic oscillation is possible for the system. When multiplicity occurs, some minimum of R present initially in the reactor is required in order for the high steady state to be achieved. Loci of transient extreme for product are also investigated. Multiplicity and uniqueness criteria are further compared with reported experimental data in literature.
