Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Macroscopic concentration gradients are measured through spatial microelectrode scans in the most turbulently stirred zone of a CSTR on both steady states of the bistable Belousov−Zhabotinsky reaction. The concentration distribution that exists on the macroscale is shown to arise indirectly from the spatial dependence of the micromixing time through the coupling of chemical reaction with micromixing.
