On the Consistency of the Mathematical Models of Chemical Reactions

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Synergetics ((SSSYN,volume 6))

Abstract

There are two main principles according to which chemical reactions in a spatial domain are modeled:

  1. (i)

    global description (i.e. without diffusion, spatially homogeneous or ‘well-stirred’ case) versus local description (i.e. including diffusion, spatially inhomogeneous case),

  2. (ii)

    deterministic description (macroscopic, phenomenological, in terms of concentrations) versus stochastic description (on the level of numbers of particles, taking into account internal fluctuations).
