Investigation of dynamic behavior of the Bray-Liebhafsky reaction in the CSTR. Determination of bifurcation points
Experimental results obtained by operating the Bray-Liebhafsky (BL) reaction in the CSTR are presented. The dynamic behavior of the BL reaction is examined at several operation points in the concentration phase space, by varying different parameters, the specific flow rate, temperature, and mixed inflow concentrations of the feed species, one at a time. Different types of bifurcation leading to simple periodic orbits, supercritical and subcritical Hopf bifurcations, saddle node infinite period bifurcation (SNIPER), saddle loop infinite period bifurcation, and jug handle bifurcation, are observed. Moreover, complex dynamic behavior, including transition from simple periodic oscillations to complex mixed-mode oscillations and chaos, and bistability are also discovered.
