Analysis of dead-core formation in catalytic reaction and diffusion processes with generalized diffusion flux

Abstract Dead-core and non-dead-core solutions to the nonlinear diffusion–reaction equation based on the generalized diffusion flux with gradient-dependent diffusivity and the power-law reaction kinetics in catalyst slabs are established. The formation of dead zones where the reactant concentration...
