Ethane gas (C2H6) is burned with air. The fuel flow rate is 0.1 kg/s and the air flowrate is 2.2 ...
Question 4:One kmol of ethane (C2H6) is burned with an unknown amount of air during a combustion process. An analysis of the combustion products reveals that the combustion is complete and there are 3 kmol of free O2 in the products. Determine (a) the air-fuel ratio, and (b) the percentage of theoretical air used during this process. Assume the composition of air in molar percentage as 21% oxygen and 798 nitrogen as general. Please Note: Molecular weight of Hydrogen for...
1 kmol of gas Ethane is burned with 175 percent theoretical air in a steady flow combustion chamber. An analysis of the combustion gases reveals that all the hydrogen in the fuel burns to H2O but 95 percent of the Carbon burns to CO2 with the remaining 5 percent forming CO. Treating the air as dry air, determine; (a)The balanced combustion equation. (b)The air-fuel ratio. (c)The amount of heat transfer (in kJ/kg of fuel) from the combustion process if the...
A fuel gas containing 95 mole% methane and the balance ethane is burned completely with 25% excess air. The stack gas leaves the furnace at 900°C and is cooled to 450°C in a waste-heat boiler, a heat exchanger in which heat lost by cooling gases is used to produce steam from liquid water for heating, power generation, or process applications. (a) Taking as a basis of calculation 100 mol of the fuel gas fed to the furnace, calculate the amount...

Methane gas is burned with 30 percent excess air. This fuel enters a steady- flow combustor at 0.8 atm and 25oC and is mixed with the air. The products of combustion leave this reactor at 0.8 atm and 1600 K. Determine the equilibrium composition of the products of combustion and the amount of heat released by this combustion in kJ/kmol methane. Use data from the tables CH 25°C CO2, H3O chamber NO.
