Abstract/Summary: | |
Both static input and stimulus-response experiments are performed with particular emphasis placed on the novel feedback-induced bifurcation method. These techniques are applied to CO oxidation on Rh/Al;Static input experiments for CO oxidation on supported Rh, reduced at 170;Steady-state and step-response experiments at 147;The feedback-induced bifurcation method is also applied to the CO oxidation reaction on supported Rh. After reducing the Rh/Al;Finally, the feedback-induced bifurcation method is used to generate basis oscillations that are subjected to forced periodic operation. This provides a process in which entrainment behavior can be systematically examined. (Abstract shortened with permission of author.)... |
