Modelling and Simulation of a Top‐Fired Primary Steam Reformer using GPROMS

A top-fired primary steam reformer is modelled and simulated using gPROMS, a general purpose modelling package Validation of the model is performed against industrial data A sensitivity analysis of the key operating parameters of pressure, temperature, steam to carbon ratio, and feed rate are comparable to previous observations in the published literature Optimisation of the burner profile and the reactant gas distribution enhanced the balance of the furnace, which will significantly improve the operating lifetime of the steam reformer for a given performance
