The micro-interface formed inside and on the surface of the catalytic particle is the place where the catalytic reaction proceeds. The micro-interface temperature is one of the important factors determining the reaction efficiency. Numerical simulation was used to investigate the fluid-solid coupled heat transfer law of micro-interface under the regulation of spherical particles’ self-rotation. The results show it takes up to 4.78 s that the average surface temperature of non-rotating particle with a diameter of 3 mm decreases from 300 ℃ to 150 ℃, which is the lowest temperature required for high-efficiency selective catalytic reduction reaction of NOx with NH3, while self-rotation can reduce the cooling rate of particles. When the direction of particle self-rotation is perpendicular to gas velocity, as the self-rotation speed increases, the high-temperature area of the particle surface diffuses more fully to the latitude direction. Significant effect can be made as the self-rotation speed reaches 5 rad/s, the uniformity of the surface temperature can be increased by 27.1 % ~ 37.7 % compared with non-rotating particle, and the uniformity can be increased by a maximum of 49.5 % at a self-rotation speed of 500 rad/s.
