The transport and distribution of reaction products above microstructured catalytically active samples was studied by spatially resolved scanning mass spectrometry and by combined Monte Carlo simulations and Fluid Dynamics calculations. For CO oxidation on planar Pt microstructures, the spatial distribution of CO2 product gas was probed via a thin quartz capillary, which leads the gases to a quadrupole mass spectrometer. To obtain reasonable lateral resolution, the capillary orifice was located a few micrometers above the sample surface during measurement. In this geometry, shadowing by the capillary results in a local reduction of the reactant partial pressures underneath the capillary. To quantitatively analyse the reaction rates, the threedimensional distribution of CO2 product gas was modeled, considering the flow of educt gases, and their local variation of the pressure and the gas temperature.
