Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a reforming hydrogen production system, in particular to a hydrogen-rich fuel sleeve type hydrogen-rich fuel reforming hydrogen production system with efficient mass transfer and heat transfer. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the fuel cell industry, the upsurge of research and development of hydrogen energy has been promoted. To make extensive use of this new type of energy and power, a reliable and stable source of hydrogen must first be available. Although the industrial-scale coal and natural gas hydrogen production technology is mature, the price of hydrogen will rise sharply after hydrogen compression, storage and transportation. The need for a decentralized hydrogen source for fuel cells of all sizes cannot be met. The use of hydrogen-rich fuels such as hydrocarbons and alcohols to provide hydrogen sources for fuel cells through on-site hydrogen production has become one of the most realistic...
