Abstract

Based on the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction in CSFR we observe that the mixing rate decrease in the reaction volume of the mixture to the value Ω0 leads to a qualitative change in the nature of the chaotic regime, similar to a second order phase transition. We show that the largest Lyapunov exponent for the system is directly proportional to Ω02.
