Abstract
The development of a mathematical model to account for channel interac tions in a multichannel monolith with square shaped channels is descri bed. As an example of the application of the code, channel interaction s are modelled that result from a maldistribution in fuel supply into a catalytic monolith combustor. The response of a metal and a ceramic monolith are compared, demonstrating the advantages of conduction as a method of dissipating heat in the radial direction.
