Non-square process control systems, with fewer inputs than the controlled outputs, are quite common in chemical processes. In these systems, it is impossible to control all measured variables at specific set points and many of the outputs are controlled within an interval. The objective of this paper is to introduce a multivariable Operability methodology for such non-square systems to be used ...

Plasmatron fuel converters have been investigated for the conversion of a wide range of fuels. This paper is one of a series of paper investigating the performance of plasmatron methane reformers. In this paper a systematic experimental investigation is carried out of the reformation of methane in a plasmatron fuel reformer at steady state conditions. The effect upon reformation of flow rate di...
