Resumen:

In the present work, the conservation principles (energy and species) and the second law of thermodynamics are used to determine the generated entropy in a thermochemical reactor that produces hydrogen from the thermal cracking of methane. The developed model is coupled to a genetic algorithm code to minimize the entropy. Finally, the minimum generated entropy is related with the exergy destruction costs through a thermoeconomic cost balance and the Gouy-Stodola theorem.
