Abstract
In this article we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution of a non-stationary problem that modelizes the behavior of the concentrations and the temperature of gases going through a cylindrical passage of an automotive catalytic converter. This problem couples parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) in a domain with one parabolic partial differential equation and some ordinary differential equations (ODEs) on a part of its boundary.
