"Catalytic Microreactors for Portable Power Generation" addresses a
problem of high relevance and increased complexity in energy
technology. This thesis outlines an investigation into catalytic
and gas-phase combustion characteristics in channel-flow,
platinum-coated microreactors. The emphasis of the study is on
microreactor/microturbine concepts for portable power generation
and the fuels of interest are methane and propane. The author
carefully describes numerical and experimental techniques,
providing a new insight into the complex interactions between
chemical kinetics and molecular transport processes, as well as
giving the first detailed report of hetero-/homogeneous chemical
reaction mechanisms for catalytic propane combustion. The outcome
of this work will be widely applied to the industrial design of
micro- and mesoscale combustors.
