Nonlinear feedback control for operating a nonisothermal CSTR near an unstable steady state
D.D. Bruns,J. E. Bailey +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Tsypkin's analytical methods for approximate solution of this and higher order problems are elaborated and tested for relay feedback controllers to maintain process states near unstable steady states, the CSTR with an irreversible exothermic reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isothermal sustained oscillations due to the influence of adsorbed species on the catalytic reaction rate
TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical model is used to illustrate that the influence of adsorbed species on the rate of an isothermal catalytic reaction may lead to sustained oscillations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Process operation near an unstable steady state using nonlinear feedback control
D.D. Bruns,J. E. Bailey +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a relay with hysteresis as a feedback controller is used to produce a stable, small amplitude oscillation in the neighborhood of the desired state, and approximate solutions for such oscillations can be obtained by Tsypkin's method or describing function analysis.
