Tubular Reactor
State dimension: 1
Differential states: 2
Discrete control functions: 1


The Tubular Reactor problem is a two-dimensional ODE model. It aims to maximize the value of the second differential state at the end of the time interval.

The optimal integer control functions exhibits a singular arc.

Mathematical formulation

minwx2(1)subject tox1˙(t)=(w(t)+12w(t)2)x1(t),x2˙(t)=w(t)x1(t),x(0)=(1,0)T,w(t)[0,5]

Reference Solutions

Here is one local solution to the above control problem.

Miscellaneous and Further Reading

This formulation and a detailed description can be found in [1].
