Abstract
The article gives a brief characteristic of the catalytic reforming process. The necessity to simulate reforming reactors is shown. A universal model was designed that helps to analyze processes in adiabatic plug flow reactors both with radial and axial feeding of reagents. It considers the ratio the reaction rates between group components to reduce the number of independent variables. The model is designed with application of the ReactOp software complex. Simulation results prove advantages of the reactors with radial feeding as compared with the axial flow reactors. Suggestion concerning enhancement and application of the model are made.
