In order to simulate one process of SOFC with internal methane reforming, in the Reformer some reaction take a place like: CO+H2O = CO2+H2, C+CO2 = 2 CO, C+H2O = CO+H2, CO+3 H2 = CH4+H2O, C+2 H2 = CH4 and each of this reactions have an equilibrium temperature, which tells me the direction of the reaction.
I need to know, what is the relationship between the equilibrium temperature and the mass flux of the fuel, which enter the reformer. In my case, I use the exhaust gases generated in the Anode to supply the Reformer with energy after mixing with the natural gas. It will be very helpful if there is a Formel or scientific paper which gives the relationship between the equilibrium temperature in the reformer and the mass flux of the fuel entering the reformer.
Here is a spreadsheet that does the calcs you need based on a fired heater H2 plant design. You should be able to modify it to match or extract the thermodynamic that you need.
