Performance of autonomous power unit with coupling catalytic maicrocombustor was investigated with varying the fuel flow rate and the driving voltage of the micro-blower, which controled to air flow rate. According to the result of element experiments, the maximum net output of the power unit was expected about 180mW at fuel flow was 7.5sccm and driving voltage was 11V. Under these conditions, the power unit actually generated the net output electricity 249mW. The final conversion efficiency of the total system reached 1.92%.
