Study on the Flow Dynamics of Nitrogen and Hydrogen Gases in a Monolithic Microchannel

The current production of ammonia (NH3) through the synthesis of nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2) gases requires the utilization of high pressure and high temperature system, which poses not only high risk on the safety of the operation, but also produces less ammonia yield. This process that is wide...
