Abstract

The annual energy matrix has been changing in the last years because of the necessity of less dependence on fossil fuels, which are running out on the planet. Therefore, a study was begun to simulate the most efficient production of H-2 through COMSOL Multiphysics((R)), as it is a gas that in the future will be essential to supply the world's energy necessities, due to it being easy to access and insert in gas pipes. From this study, we were able to present an optimization of parameters that presents good indications of how to obtain efficient hydrogen production in an idealized reactor. (AU)
