C,Hg is burned in an engine with a fuel-rich air-fuel ratio. Dry analysis of the exhaust gives the following volume percents: CO, = 14.95%, C,Hg = 0.75%, CO = 0%, H2 = 0%, O2 = 0%, with the rest being N2. Higher heating value of this fuel is QuHV = 46.9 MJ/kg. Write the balanced chemical equation for one mole of this fuel at these conditions. Calculate: (a) Air-fuel ratio. (b) Equivalence ratio.

INTERNAL COMBUSTION.

C,Hg is burned in an engine with a fuel-rich air-fuel ratio. Dry analysis of the exhaust gives
the following volume percents: CO, = 14.95%, C̟H§ = 0.75%, CO = 0%,
H2 = 0%, O2 = 0%, with the rest being
N2. Higher heating value of this fuel is QHíy = 46.9 MJ/kg. Write the balanced chemical
equation for one mole of this fuel at these conditions.
Calculate:
(a) Air-fuel ratio.
(b) Equivalence ratio.
(c) Lower heating value of fuel. [MJ/kg]
(d) Energy released when one kg of this fuel is burned in the engine with a combustion
efficiency of 98%. [MJ]
