Parameter Estimation for a Chemical Reaction

Introduction

This application estimates the rate parameters for a reversible reaction with dimerization of an intermediate.

 

It does this by doing the following:

 

• 

Parameterizing (with respect to and ) the numerical solution of the different equations that describe the reaction kinetics

• 

Calculating the sum of the square of the errors between the model predictions and experimental data

• 

Minimizing the sum of the square of the errors to find the best fit values of and
