Funded Activity Summary

Investigations of Surface-Gas Reactions and Mixing in Micro-combustion. This proposal is closely aligned with the third national research priority of 'Frontier Technologies and Transforming Australian Industries'. Micro-power generation is one such technology that will provide power for a broad array of current and future devices ranging from micro-electronics to micro-propulsion systems. Studies conducted here will lead to enhanced mixing and flame stability in micro-combustors. This will place Australia at the leading edge of international research in this field and enables technological advancement in the emerging micro-power generation industry. Another benefit of this research is the training of graduates who will most likely lead future developments in micro-combustion engineering.
