Ahstraet-Numerical methods for the solution of steady state equations are reviewed and critically discussed. A new technique is presented which, for the parameter study of a problem, enables one to transform the boundary value problem to the initial value problem. Different criteria for testing of u

✦ Synopsis
Numerical results are presented in graphical form for a range of parameters where multiple solutions may occur. These results provide valuable material for a further theoretical examination of multiplicity. It is also shown that in multiple cases the Danckwerts boundary conditions are consistent with stirred tank and piston flow respectively. Possibilities of an existence of multiplicity at high P&let numbers are discussed. On the base of a simple analysis an estimation of the coordinates of a trifurcation point is developed, which together with a range of Damkohler numbers where multiplicity can occur are compared with the exact values. It is shown that these criteria are remarkably good. A discussion of the effects of axial mixing in the industrial adiabatic packed beds is presented.
