Abstract:
Application of series methods to the evaluation of rate coefficients has been considered for reactions in which explicit integration of the system of dependent differential equations is impossible The approximation of explicit integrals for such systems is considered, and a detailed study of the system: [graphic omitted] X1→X2, [graphic omitted] X1+ X2→X3 carried out using simulation techniques. Methods of analysing rate data for the above system are considered in detail, and it is shown that series methods provide precise methods for the estimation of both k1 and k2 in the above system.
