Abstract:A micro catalytic combustor was studied as an energy source to supply heat to a micro scale
endothermic reactor. The catalyst bed was made from porous material called Isolite B5 coated with Pt
catalyst by the incipient wetness method. The catalyst bed is inserted in a millimeter scale reaction
chamber and temperature distribution along the outside wall of the reactor was measured by varying
the flow rate and equivalence ratio of the hydrogen and air mixture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
