Abstract

ABSTRACTGasification is a clean technology which converts the liquid or solid fuels into a high caloric value syngas for power generation. In this research work, we developed a computational fluid dynamic model of crude oil gasification for hydrogen production; the accuracy of the model was approved in our previous work. Effects of some important factors such as residence time, steam/fuel ratio and equivalence ratio on hydrogen yield, and char conversion were explored. Results showed that the residence time and steam/fuel ratio play a major role in the process. It was also found that the equivalence ratio has a negative effect on the hydrogen yield and a positive effect on the char conversion.
