Abstract :
Vibrational control is an open-loop control strategy implemented by fast zero-average oscillations in the input variables of a system. Vibrational control of an exothermic reaction in a CSTR modifies the dynamic behavior of the reactor and enables stabilized operation of the reactor in the unstable steady state region. The amplitude and frequency of forced periodic operation as well as the input variable selected for forced periodic operation affect the behavior of the system.
