摘要
A novel metal monolith reactor for coupling methane steam reforming with catalytic combustion is proposed in this work, the metal monolith is used as a co-current heat exchanger and the catalysts are deposited on channel walls of the monolith. The transport and reaction performances of the reactor are numerically studied utilizing heterogeneous model based on the whole reactor. The influence of the operating conditions like feed gas velocity, temperature and composition are predicted to be significant and they must be carefully adjusted in order to avoid hot spots or insufficient methane conversion. To improve reactor performance, several different channel arrangements and catalyst distribution modes in the monolith are designed and simulated. It is demonstrated that reasonable reactor configuration, structure parameters and catalyst distribution can considerably enhance heat transfer and increase the methane conversion, resulting in a compact and intensified unit.
