Mathematical model on surface reaction diffusion in the presence of front chemical reaction

Large scale reaction front dynamics in anisotropic reaction-diffusion systems

Chemical Reaction Kinetics: Mathematical Underpinnings

Mathematical modeling and simulation of biochemical reaction networks facilitates our understanding of metabolic and signaling processes. For closed, well-mixed reaction systems, it is straightforward to derive kinetic equations that govern the concentrations of the reactants and products. The usual way of deriving kinetic equations involves application of the principle of conservation of mass ...

Reaction-diffusion Front Speed Enhancement by Flows

Abstract. We study flow-induced enhancement of the speed of pulsating traveling fronts for reaction-diffusion equations, and quenching of reaction by fluid flows. We prove, for periodic flows in two dimensions and any combustion-type reaction, that the front speed is proportional to the square root of the (homogenized) effective diffusivity of the flow. We show that this result does not hold in...

Single walled carbon nanotube in the reaction layer of gas diffusion electrode for oxygen reduction reaction

In this paper, the effect of surface area of reaction layers in gas diffusion electrodes on oxygen reduction reaction was investigated. For this purpose, various amounts (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and zero %wt of total loading of reaction layer) of single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) were inserted in the reaction layer. The performance of gas diffusion electrodes for oxygen reduction re...

The Contribution of Molecular Diffusion in Silica Coating and Chemical Reaction in the Overall Rate of Reaction of Aluminum Hydroxide with Fluosilicic Acid

The kinetic of the heterogeneous chemical reaction of aluminum hydroxide and fluosilicic acid was studied. It was found that the diffusion of the reactants through the porous silica coating to the aluminum hydroxide surface and the interfacial chemical reaction between the diffusing reactant and aluminum hydroxide platelets control the overall reaction rate. These two phenomena were studied...
