Microtechnology-Based Energy and Chemical Systems will most likely employ combustion for driving processes such as vapor generation and vapor barrier, endothermic chemical reactions, and (most notably) fuel reforming. Both fuel reformers and combustors will be of a miniature design relying on embedded catalysts for promoting chemical reactions at moderate temperatures (350–7501C). Many potential configurations exist depending on the application and constraints on the design. Microchannel arrays are a potential configuration; mesh and post architecture is another to achieve the desired surface area and small diffusional lengths necessary. (more…)

Steam is a great heat transfer medium simply because it’s easy to move inside your system. Steam heating is known to have a very high heat retention capacity. The heat capacity of steam is much bigger compare than that of water. Steam systems are frequently working on very low pressure and generally below 220F. (more…)
