Analysis of Nonlinear Dynamics for Abrupt Change of Interphase Structure in Liquid-Liquid Mass Transfer

Abstract EN

As a liquid-liquid system is far from equilibrium state, the phase thickness is variable when mass transfer process with chemical reaction occurs in interphase zone, and a dispersible transitional layer called the interphase dispersed zone (IDZ) is formed.

The IZD model composed of thermodynamically instable O/W or W/O microemulsion has reasonably explained enormous experimental phenomena in nonlinear mass transfer.

To forecast the possible parameter ranges of IDZ process and abrupt change of liquid-liquid mass transfer rate, the dynamic characteristics of a molecular diffusion model are considered in this paper.

We applied the bifurcation theory of planar dynamical system, Laplace transform, and maple software to investigate the model, and obtain different phase portraits of the system in different regions.

The results obtained will play an important directive role in the study of IDZ model.
