Abstract

The bifurcation analysis of methane combustion in CSTR has been performed. Several dynamic behaviours of the system have been detected. Ignition, extinction, hysteresis and oscillatory phenomena have been studied. Oscillatory behaviour has been analysed also in the time domain. The bifurcation analysis permitted the definition of operating conditions for combustion with reduced NO x emissions.
