Theoretical and experimental analysis of phase diagrams and related dynamical properties in the Belousov–Zhabotinskii system

It is shown on the basis of a semiquantitative dynamical analysis and full nonlinear computations that the irreversible Oregonator with flux conditions exhibits a characteristic cross‐shaped phase diagram which expresses the relationships between bistability and periodicity. The results are in good agreement with a whole set of new experiments on the Belousov–Zhabotinskii reaction performed in a continuous stirred tank reactor.
