Description
Summary:The purpose of this interim report is to provide an overview of the author’s Final Year Project. The author would like to study the effect of delay on the stability of recycle stream of Continuously Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) sustaining cubic autocatalytic reactions with time delay. The reactor is operated under isothermal condition. The reaction system is governed by the delay differential equations. The dynamic behavior of the cubic autocatalytic reaction system with time delay is investigated using DDE23 solver which is available in MATLAB. In the absence of delay, the system is dynamically unstable with the set of model parameters. It has been observed that the dynamic characteristic changes as a result of delay in the recycle stream of a CSTR.
