class h2integrate.converters.methanol.smr_methanol_plant.SMRMethanolPlantPerformanceModel(**kwargs)#

An OpenMDAO component for modeling the performance of a steam methane reforming (SMR) methanol plant. Computes annual methanol and co-product production, feedstock consumption, and emissions based on plant capacity and capacity factor.

Inputs:

    kg methanol produced

  • meoh_atr_cat_consume_ratio: ratio of ft^3 methanol autothermal reforming (ATR) catalyst

    consumed to kg methanol produced

  • ng_consume_ratio: ratio of kg natural gas (NG) consumed to kg methanol produced

  • elec_produce_ratio: ratio of electricity produced to kg methanol produced

Outputs:

  • meoh_syn_cat_consume: annual consumption of methanol synthesis catalyst (ft**3/yr)

  • meoh_atr_cat_consume: annual consumption of methanol ATR catalyst (ft**3/yr)

  • ng_consume: hourly consumption of NG (kg/h)

  • methanol_out: hourly methanol production (kg/h)

  • electricity_out: hourly electricity production (kW*h/h)

compute(inputs, outputs)#

Compute outputs given inputs. The model is assumed to be in an unscaled state.

An inherited component may choose to either override this function or to define a compute_primal function.

Parameters:

  • inputs (Vector) -- Unscaled, dimensional input variables read via inputs[key].

  • outputs (Vector) -- Unscaled, dimensional output variables read via outputs[key].

  • discrete_inputs (dict-like or None) -- If not None, dict-like object containing discrete input values.

  • discrete_outputs (dict-like or None) -- If not None, dict-like object containing discrete output values.
