Abstract

This paper presents a numerical investigation of premixed methane/oxygen heterogeneous reaction characteristics in a micro-catalytic combustion chamber under various boundary and wall thermophysical conditions. A 3-D model was simulated using ANSYS Fluent and validated against experimental data, with a maximum difference of only 1.92 % using a pure heterogeneous reaction. This study aims to analyze the wall boundary conditions and thermophysical factors that influence chemically and thermally during heterogeneous reactions. The results show that, with an increase in inlet velocity from 1 m/s to 10 m/s, the maximum heat produced by the reaction increases 52.67 % and the temperature of the channel as well as the outer wall increases accordingly. Using a 2.5 m/s inlet velocity, we found that the maximum external wall temperature uniformity coefficient was 0.1911. Furthermore, it was observed that as the heterogeneous reaction progresses, Platinum's surface coverage and the H(s) site coverage increase; however, the O(s), OH(s), CO(s), and C(s) site coverage decreases. Additionally, low convective heat transfer and wall thermal conductivity increase the efficiency of heterogeneous reactions and methane conversion. As a result of the low wall thermal conductivity, the outer wall temperature uniformity coefficient was 0.2863, while the methane conversion rate was 79.05 %. According to the results, higher thermal resistance increased the methane conversion rate from 68.18 % to 79.05 %, and the combustion process within the micro-catalytic combustor was uniform and controlled, thus enhancing its efficiency. The results of this study provide useful insights for optimizing micro-combustors, paving the way for future improvements in their design and operational efficiency.

热物理性质对微型催化燃烧室中甲烷/氧气混合物异相反应动力学的影响
本文对各种边界和壁面热物理条件下微催化燃烧室中的预混合甲烷/氧气异相反应特性进行了数值研究。使用 ANSYS Fluent 对三维模型进行了模拟,并与实验数据进行了验证,在使用纯异相反应时,最大差异仅为 1.92%。本研究旨在分析异相反应过程中影响化学和热反应的壁边界条件和热物理因素。结果表明,随着入口速度从 1 米/秒增加到 10 米/秒,反应产生的最大热量增加了 52.67%,通道和外壁的温度也相应增加。在入口速度为 2.5 米/秒的情况下,我们发现最大外壁温度均匀系数为 0.1911。此外,我们还观察到,随着异相反应的进行,铂的表面覆盖率和 H(s)位点覆盖率增加,但 O(s)、OH(s)、CO(s)和 C(s)位点覆盖率下降。此外,低对流传热和壁面热传导率提高了异质反应和甲烷转化的效率。由于壁面导热系数低,外壁温度均匀系数为 0.2863,甲烷转化率为 79.05%。研究结果表明,较高的热阻可将甲烷转化率从 68.18% 提高到 79.05%,并且微催化燃烧器内的燃烧过程是均匀和可控的,从而提高了其效率。这项研究的结果为优化微型燃烧器提供了有益的启示,为今后改进微型燃烧器的设计和运行效率铺平了道路。
