Problem 5.55 Gas Combustion Look up the definition of a standard cubic meter. Check conversion factors...
A natural gas contains 96 wt% CH4 and the balance C2H6. Five hundred cubic meters per hour of this gas at 40 oC and 1.1 bar is to be burned with 30% excess air. The air flow meter is calibrated to read the volumetric flow rate at standard temperature and pressure. What should be the meter read (in SCMH) when the flow rate is set to the desired value?
