Mean-field dynamics of CRN 3 in CSTR. Note that the solvent molecule n0 is not shown. The reaction rate constants are ω1=0.6,ω2=1 and ω3=0.8. a The initial condition is ξd=(n0,n1,n3,n4,n5,n6)=(75,5,5,5,5,5). b The initial condition is ξ0=(100,0,0,0,0,0). In both (a) and (b), the inflow is fd=(f0,f1,f3,f4,f5,f6)=(8,0,2,0,0,0), and after the transient period, the outflow is \(\boldsymbol {f'}_{\boldsymbol {\xi }_{d},\boldsymbol {f}_{d}} = \boldsymbol {f'}_{\boldsymbol {\xi }_{0},\boldsymbol {f}_{d}} \doteq (75.2, 14.6, 1.7, 6.8, 0.9, 0.8)\)
