Abstract
This paper is a preliminary study of time–frequency behavior of homogenous Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction in a batch reactor. A series of measurements performed for a variable concentration of the reaction substrates led to the conclusion that there exists time-dependency of an instantaneous frequency of fundamental frequency and harmonics and of electrode potential fluctuations generated during the process discussed. The Short Time Fourier Transformation (STFT) was proposed for analyzing electrode potential registers. On the basis of STFT analysis a decrease in frequency of oscillations of exponential character has been postulated.
