Steam reforming is an effective method for improving heat sinks of hypersonic aircraft at high flight Mach numbers. However, unlike the industrial process of producing hydrogen with a high water content, the catalytic steam reforming mechanism for the regeneration cooling process of hydrocarbon fuel...
