Spectral, Entropy and Bifurcation Analysis of the Dynamics of a Catalyst Chemical Reverse-Flow Tubular Reactor

Oscillations, including chaotic ones, can spontaneously appear in chemical reactors or lean premixed combustors. Such behavior of the system is undesirable and should be identified at stage its modeling. This article analyzes reverse-flow tubular reactor with longitudinal dispersion terms oscillations. The purpose using reverse flow to increase conversion degree. For analysis reactor, among others, spectral analysis, entropy, bifurcation were used. obtained results show a wide range changes parameter’s values.
