Popis: Chemical kinetic models of high-temperature and low-temperature water gas shift reactions (WGSRs) are established in the present study, in accordance with experimental measurements. The reactions are simulated to aid in recognizing the detailed phenomena of the WGSRs. In thedeveloped models, theeffects of both thereactiontemperature andthesteam/ CO ratio are taken into account. It is found that the predictions in terms of the conducted models agree with the experimental results very well. When the high-temperature shift reaction (HTSR) and the low-temperature shift reaction (LTSR) in catalyst beds are examined, the CO conversion near the wall is always higher than that along the centerline of the reactor
