The catalytic heat exchanger, which integrates two functions of heat generation and heat exchange into one equipment, was designed and its characteristics were investigated by the experiment and numerical simulation. The surface of the fin tube was deposited with Pd catalyst. The conversion of the mixture in the catalytic heat exchanger was more significantly affected by the inlet velocity of the mixture than by the inlet temperature and equivalence ratio of the mixture. It was found that the catalytic surface area of the fin tubes should be sufficiently increased to make the combustion intensity of the catalytic heat exchanger as high as possible. Results showed that the fin tubes, placed in the triangularly staggered form, should be adjusted so that the mixture flows uniformly over all the catalytic fin surfaces. Numerical simulation results demonstrated that the flow pattern of the mixture significantly affected the conversion of the mixture.

The heat exchanger using the catalytic combustion can be applied to petrochemical processes and to VOC incineration facilities. In this work, the experiment for a new fin typed catalytic heat exchanger was conducted. Catalysts for the heat exchanger were determined by testing their catalytic activities over LPG in a micro-reactor. Based on experimental results of the fin typed catalytic heat exchanger, a small scaled heat exchange system was made to test its feasibility as a reboiler used in petrochemical processes. The results showed that the catalytic heat exchanger could combust off-gases effectively and at the same time could recover completely heat produced by catalytic combustion.

수소화붕소나트륨은 안정적으로 수소가 저장된 물질이며, 촉매반응으로 수소를 용이하게 분리할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 탈수소 반응률을 높이기 위해 비표면적이 큰 마이크로 pin fin 화학반응기를 제작하여 수소화붕소나트륨 수용액의 압력강하 및 탈수소 화학반응 실험을 수행하였다. 나노공정을 이용하여 실리콘웨이퍼에 높이 $300{\mu}m$, 직경 $50{\mu}m$의 pin fin을 축간격 1.3, 횡간격 1.5으로 엇갈림 배열하였다. 수소화붕소나트륨 수용액은 5~20 wt.% 농도로 Re수 1~60으로 공급되었으며, 초고속카메라를 이용하여 탈수소반응 유동양상을 관찰하였다. 실험 결과 마이크로 pin fin 화학반응기는 동일 수력학적직경을 가지는 직관 마이크로채널 화학반응기보다 화학반응 성능이 2.45배 우수한 반면, 압력강하는 1.5배 증가하였다.

Catalytic combustor with heat exchangers are often employed in process technology where a compact design is required [1]. The use of fin and tube heat exchanger offers the enhanced surface area for heat exchange. The recent progress and performance of the fin-tube heat exchanger, especially airside, has been reviewed extensively by Wang[2].(Omitted)

This paper conducted a study on the ortho-para hydrogen conversion in the cryogenic heat exchanger filled with catalysts for hydrogen liquefaction by utilizing the numerical model of plate-fin heat exchanger considering catalytic reaction of ortho-para hydrogen conversion, heat and mass transfer phenomena and fluid dynamics in a porous medium. Various numerical analyzes were performed to investigate the characteristics of ortho-para hydrogen conversion, the effects of space velocity and activated catalyst performance.

Design of experiments (DOE) technique has been used to design an exhaust heat exchanger to reduce the exhaust gas temperature under high load conditions in a spark-ignition engine. The DOE evaluates the influence and the interaction of a selected eight design parameters of the heat exchanger affecting the cooling performance of the exhaust gas through a limited number of experiments. The heat exchanger was installed between the exhaust manifold and the inlet of the close-coupled catalytic converter (CCC) to reduce thermal aging. To maximize the heat transfer between exhaust gas and coolant, fins were implemented at the inner surface of the heat exchanger. The design parameters consist of the fin geometry (length, thickness, arrangement, and number of fin), coolant direction, heat exchanger wall thickness, and the length of the heat exchanger. The acceptable range of each design parameter is discussed by analyzing the DOE results.

The fpr gene, which encodes a ferredoxin-$NADP^+$ reductase, is known to participate in the reversible redox reactions between $NADP^+$/NADPH and electron carriers, such as ferredoxin or flavodoxin. The role of Fpr and its regulatory protein, FinR, in Pseudomonas putida KT2440 on the oxidative and osmotic stress responses has already been characterized [Lee at al. (2006). Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 339, 1246-1254]. In the genome of P. putida KT2440, another Fpr homolog (FprB) has a 35.3% amino acid identity with Fpr. The fprB gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The diaphorase activity assay was conducted using purified FprB to identify the function of FprB. In contrast to the fpr gene, the induction of fprB was not affected by oxidative stress agents, such as paraquat, menadione, $H_2O_2$, and t-butyl hydroperoxide. However, a higher level of fprB induction was observed under osmotic stress. Targeted disruption of fprB by homologous recombination resulted in a growth defect under high osmotic conditions. Recovery of oxidatively damaged aconitase activity was faster for the fprB mutant than for the fpr mutant, yet still slower than that for the wild type. Therefore, these data suggest that the catalytic function of FprB may have evolved to augment the function of Fpr in P. putida KT2440.
