What property methods should be chosen for the simulation of natural gas conversion?
Thread Content
I am currently using Aspen to carry out simulations and optimizations related to natural gas, but I have no idea which property methods should be used for such reactions. I hope experts can help me out! Urgent, waiting online! Also, what kind of modules should the converter be divided into! Is it a heat exchanger combined with a reactor? What are the requirements for choosing a reactor? I’m a beginner with Aspen; I hope experienced users can give me some guidance! ! ! !
The PR equation can be considered; the choice of reactor depends on your reaction conditions
The reaction conditions are roughly a temperature of around 1000 degrees, and a pressure of 3.5 MPa. Can an equilibrium reactor be used?» What other parameters are needed to determine the reactor? ? Thank you, OP! ! !
The Rgibbs reactor can be used, along with the PSRK property method
Both the PR and RK-sove series are suitable; the difference is that one is more accurate in simulating temperature, while the other is more accurate in simulating gas composition.
