Virtual Functional Product Development of a µ-Methane Steam Reformer
A micro steam methane reformer is a complex product consisting of multiple units. For the virtual functional product development it is necessary to validate these sub models separately. Therefore a reactor was designed to analyse kinetics of chemical reactions. The reactor design is based on a simulation geometry and the boundary conditions of the simulation were recreated in the experimental setup. With a heat cartridge replacing the chemical reaction and its heat duty, the heat transport in the reactor was validated by comparing the results of a dynamic experiment with a time dependent simulation. By applying a catalyst coating inside the reactor a chemical reaction can now be evaluated. Heat duty and composition of the exhaust can be used to deduce a rate law.
