Abstract :
This paper is dedicated to the analysis of a class of tubular reactors, viz. reactors with axial dispersion, and involving sequential reactions for which the kinetics only depends on the concentrations of the reactants involved in the reaction. The analysis is carried out by using the tools of distributed parameter linear system theory, and is based on the linearized tangent model of the (generally) nonlinear partial differential equation (PDE) model
