Flickering and Thermal Flicker Waves on Catalytic Wires and Gauzes and in Chemical Reactors

Abstract
We present a theoretical investigation of flickering (local temperature fluctuations) and thermal flicker waves in chemical reactors and on catalytic wires and gauzes. It is shown that these phenomena can be caused by harmonic coupling between the chemical kinetics and oscillations in the ambient field. The oscillations can be modeled either by fluctuations in the heat and mass transfer coefficients, or by fluctuations in the gas temperature and concentration.
