Abstract
In our previous papers (Mackevičius et al. in Cent Eur J Chem 10(2):380–385, 2012, J Math Chem 50(8):2291–2302, 2012), we presented a method for estimation of the diffusion and reaction rates of synthesis at high temperatures using limited information, such as synthesis time and dimensions of reactants, from real laboratory experiments. The method was limited to the two-reactant case. In order to extend the method to the three-reactant case, the form and distribution of particles of three reactants must satisfy requirements of periodicity and symmetry. In our model, we achieve this by taking rhombic particles and a triangular synthesis space. Solving in the latter an inverse modeling problem, we obtain explicit formulas for the diffusion coefficient and reaction rate as functions of temperature by calculating the activation energies and other parameters of CHAp synthesis.
