“…To reduce the APU complexity, a single stage non-isothermal reactor (NI-WGS) reaching the thermodynamic equilibrium is assumed according to [61,104]: the higher inlet temperature (330°C) is chosen to boost-up kinetics and the lower outlet one (300°C) to obtain a CO residual concentration of 0.5%, considering the beneficial effect of extra water fed to reach a H 2 O/CO molar ratio of about 5 [42,43,63,77,78,102]. The temperature profile in the multifunctional NI-WGS micro-channel item (reactor and exchanger) is controlled through the water stream fed to the reformer.…”
