Abstract: Based on one-dimension quasi-homogeneous phase model, a dynamic model for single-tube steam reformer of high-temperature gas-cooled reactor was presented, and computer program was developed. Steady state calculation and analysis were performed for the steam reformer design by Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute. The results show that heat loss at the entrance of helium influences the steam reformer performance remarkably, and reaction velocity is not main factor influencing the performance. The steady state calculation results fit well with experiment results.
