A graphical phase‐plane procedure is suggested by which regions of stability can be estimated for a tubular reactor. The technique uses a super‐position of limits for primary flow and reaction effects and those arising from secondary axial dispersion. Several detailed numerical tests are reported to substantiate the conjecture.
