“…For this reason, recent works are often motivated to add more physical meaning to their models. This allows to additionally focus on effects of secondary order (e.g., flow maldistributions, localized hot-spots, spatial and spatiotemporal patterns) (Sheintuch, 1997;Trinh and Ramkrishna, 1997;Jaree et al, 2001;Papadias et al, 2001;Marwaha and Luss, 2003;Agrawal et al, 2007;Viswanathan et al, 2008;Nekhamkina and Sheintuch, 2012), which is, however, not object of this work. Similarly, stable oscillatory solutions are also disregarded in this work, since they are unlikely to occur in fixed-bed reactors on an industrial scale due to their high thermal inertia (Jensen and Ray, 1982).…”
