Abstract Studies on chemical and electrochemical oscillating systems are very useful in understanding more complex biological systems. Spontaneous periodic and bursting current oscillations were found in iron/dichromate systems coupled with graphite or zinc electrodes. In this paper, we study some phenomenological features of the two systems: their typical oscillation profiles and the influence of external resistance. The results are explained by the Franck-Fitzhugh model using the mixed potential theory.
