Abstract: Reactors and processes are disclosed that can utilize high heat fluxes to obtain fast, steady-state reaction rates. Porous catalysts used in conjunction with microchannel reactors to obtain high rate s of heat transfer are also disclosed. Reactors and pro-cesses that utilize short contact times, high heat flux and low pressure drop are described. Improved methods of steam reforming are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus (vessel) for providing a heat transfer rate from a reaction chamber through a wall to a heat transfer chamber substantially matching a local heat transfer rate of a catalytic thermal chemical reaction. The key to the invention is a thermal distance defined on a cross sectional plane through the vessel inclusive of a heat transfer chamber, reaction chamber and a wall between the chambers. The cross sectional plane is perpendicular to a bulk flow direction of the reactant stream, and the thermal distance is a distance between a coolest position and a hottest position on the cross sectional plane. The thermal distance is of a length wherein the heat transfer rate from the reaction chamber to the heat transfer chamber substantially matches the local heat transfer rate.

Abstract: The present invention is an active microchannel heat exchanger with an activ e heat source and with microchannel architecture. The active microchannel heat exchanger has (a) an exothermic reaction chamber (100) having a first shell (102) defining an exothermic reactant flow path and exhaust flow path, the first shell (102) penetrated with at least one inlet (104), and an exhaust outlet (106); (b) an exhaust chamber (108) having a second shell (110) with a containment wall (111) defining an exhaust flow path connected to said exhaust outlet (106), said second shell (110) penetrated by an exhaust chamber outlet (112) , the exhaust chamber (108) having microchannels through which an exhaust flows; and (c) a heat exchanger chamber (114) in thermal contact with the exhaust chamber, said heat exchanger chamber (114) having a third shell (116) defining a working fluid flow path and havi ng a third exterior surface (118) penetrated by a working fluid inlet (120) and a working fluid outlet (122) through which a working fluid flows; wherein (d) heat from the exothermic reaction chamber (100) is converted by an exothermic reaction exhaust through the exhaust chamber (108) and by conduction through the containment wall (111) to the working fluid in the heat exchanger chamber (114) thereby raising a temperatureof the working fluid. The invention is particularly useful as a liquid fluid vaporizer and/or a steam generator for fuel cell power systems, and as a heat source for sustaining endothermic chemical reactions and initiating exothermic reactions.
