Regularities of Establishing Thermal Regimes in a Countercurrent Plug Reactor

Abstract

Theoretical studies of the implementation of possible types of stationary states for a countercurrent liquid–liquid plug reactor are carried out. States such as a stable node and focus, and an unstable focus with a stable limit cycle (oscillations) are found. Using these data, the evolution of stationary states with continuous changes in the external control parameters is studied. When the relationship between the flow rates of the phases changes, a structure of stationary states, which can be realized both at the entrance and exit of the dispersion medium, is found.
