In this study, the effects of thermal properties of combustor materials on the system efficiency have been investigated for miniature vortex combustion power system. Using combustion chambers made of duralumin, cupper and SUS, output power, combustion chamber wall temperature and exhaust gas temperature were obtained. It was found that the system efficiency is the highest for duralumin combustor. On the other hand, combustion chamber temperature is the highest for SUS and lowest for cupper. These results indicate that the system output is higher for lower heat capacity materials, and the combustion chamber temperature is higher for low heat conductivity materials.
