i'm doing simulation for Ethanol reforming in Comsol. the model had solved but in the results temperature increase until 60 degree while in the papers in temperature increase is reported about 250 degree.
I checked my model and solution process and i fond no any mistake on them.
now i want to ask from you that the temperature that i reach is correct or not?
I look forward to hearing from you
Hi Reza,
60 degrees definitely seems quite a bit low for an ethanol reforming reaction. However, the final temperature certainly depends on the final chemical composition of the mixture. My guess is that you might have too much water in your initial mixture, which essentially causes a temperature drop in your final mixture due to the high specific heat capacity of water.
