No data of tested-cooling-ability of endothermic fuels have been broadly discussed in literature. In this work a high-temperature flow calorimeter was designed, and the cooling capacity of six different hydrocarbon fuels were measured. Experimental results showed that these hydrocarbon fuels have capacity for cooling high-temperature structures, and that the cooling capacity of fuel N-1 can reach 3.15 M J/kg, which can nearly satisfy the requirement of thermal management for a Mach 3 cruise aircraft, whose heat sink requirement is about 3.5 M J/kg. The endothermic velocity of hydrocarbon fuels was also measured by the calorimeter.展开更多

Oxygen atoms （O（a）） on Au（997） enhances the CO2 adsorption and stabilizes the adsorbed COe（a）, and the stabilization effect also depends on the CO2（a） coverage and involved Au sites. CO2（a） desorp- tion is the rate-limiting step for the CO＋O（a） reaction to produce CO2 on Au（997） at 105 K and exhibits complex behaviors, including the desorption of CO2（a） upon CO exposures at 105 K and the desorption of O（a）-stabilized CO2（a） at elevated temperatures. The desorption of CO2（a） from the surface upon CO exposures at 105 K to produce gaseous CO2 depends on the surface reaction extent and involves the reaction heat-driven CO2（a） desorption channel. CO＋O（a） reaction proceeds more easily with weakly-bound oxygen adatoms at the （111） terraces than strongly-bound oxygen adatoms at the （111） steps. These re- sults reveal complex rate-limiting COe（a） desorption behaviors during CO＋O（a） reaction on Au surfaces at low temperatures which provide novel information on the fundamental understanding of Au catalysis.展开更多
