If the concentration of a reactant remains constant (because it is a catalyst, or because it is in great excess with respect to the other reactants), its concentration can be included in the rate constant, leading to a pseudo–first-order (or occasionally pseudo–second-order) rate equation. For a typical second-order reaction with rate ...
For example, the second-order equation y′′ = −y can be rewritten as two first-order equations: y′ = z and z′ = −y. In this section, we describe numerical methods for IVPs, and remark that boundary value problems (BVPs) require a different set of tools. In a BVP, one defines values, or components of the solution y at more than one ...

In order to find the cell face value a quadratic function passing through two bracketing or surrounding nodes and one node on the upstream side must be used. In central differencing scheme and second order upwind scheme the first order derivative is included and the second order derivative is ignored.
Consider , the exact solution to a differential equation in an appropriate normed space (, | | | |). Consider a numerical approximation u h {\displaystyle u_{h}} , where h {\displaystyle h} is a parameter characterizing the approximation, such as the step size in a finite difference scheme or the diameter of the cells in a finite element method .
In fact, however, the observed reaction rate is second-order in NO 2 and zero-order in CO, [5] with rate equation r = k[NO 2] 2. This suggests that the rate is determined by a step in which two NO 2 molecules react, with the CO molecule entering at another, faster, step. A possible mechanism in two elementary steps that explains the rate ...
The first row of b coefficients gives the fifth-order accurate solution, and the second row has order four. The coefficients here allow for an adaptive stepsize to be determined automatically. Cash-Karp
Plugging in the first CSTR equation to the second: = (+) Therefore for m identical CSTRs in series: C A m = C A o ( 1 + k τ ) m {\displaystyle C_{Am}={\frac {C_{Ao}}{(1+k\tau )^{m}}}} When the volumes of the individual CSTRs in series vary, the order of the CSTRs does not change the overall conversion for a first order reaction as long as the ...
