Limit cycles are sought in a mathematical model of a simple hypothetical chemical reaction involving essentially only two reacting species. Physically, these limit cycles correspond to time-periodic oscillations in the concentrations of the two chemicals. A combination of analytical and numerical me
## Abstract A computational procedure, developed from the power series method, is used to investigate oscillating systems. In addition to its great accuracy and reduced computer time, the method is very easily programmable since the algorithm is provided by the reaction mechanism itself.
The reaction between chlorite ion and thiourea has been studied both in a closed (batch) system and in a flow reactor (CSTR). The principal stoichiometry is given by 2C10, + CS(NHi), + 2H20 = 2NH; + COz + 2C1-+ SO: In batch, the reaction displays an induction period, whose length is proportional to
A perturbation method has been used to prove that in the reversible Selkov model, a model describing glycolytic oscillations, the limit cycles emerging at the Hopf points are stable asymptotically within a range of parameter values.
