A gaseous fuel with 80% butane, 15% nitrogen and 5% oxygen (on a mole basis) is burned to completion with 120 percent theoretical air that enters the combustion chamber at 30°C and 100 kPa. Determine the volume flow rate of air required to burn fuel at a rate of 2 kg/min.
Octane gas (C8H18) and atmospheric air are supplied to a combustion chamber at 25°C at the stoichiometric air/fuel
ratio. The combustion takes place adiabatically under steady-flow condition. The change in velocity and the work transfer
can be assumed negligible. The Enthalpy of Combustion of octane gas at 25°C is – 5,116,180 kJ/kmol (when H2O in the
combustion products is in vapor phase). Determine with aid of the Table on Page 26, the final temperature of the
combustion products.
n-Octane gas (C8H18) is burned with 80% excess air in a constant pressure burner. The air and
fuel enter this burner steadily at standard conditions and the products of combustion leave at
217°C. Calculate the heat transfer, in kJ/kg fuel, during this combustion.
