Abstract
A parametric analysis is carried out for the continuous stirred tank reactor model involving a single exothermic reaction. Local bifurcations of the steady state, including Andronov–Hopf bifurcations, are analyzed for a first-order reaction. The steady-state multiplicity and neutrality lines are described in explicit form for various combinations of dimensionless parameters. Typical parametric and phase portraits of the dynamic system are presented. Parametric analysis is also carried out for the nth-order reaction nA → B, the oxidation reaction A + O2 → B, and an arbitrary kinetic function.
