Methanol vapor is burned with excess air in a catalytic combustion chamber. Liquid methanol initially at 25 ◦C is vaporized at 1.1 atm and heated to 100 ◦C; the vapor is mixed with air that has been preheated to 1100 ◦C, and the combined stream is fed to the reactor at 100 ◦C and 1 atm. The reactor effluent emerges at 300 ◦Cand 1atm. Analysis of the product gas yields a dry-basis composition of 4.8% CO2, 14.3% O2, and 80.9%...

Problem 2. A novel gaseous hydrocarbon fuel CxHy is proposed for use in spark-ignition engines. A sample analysis of this fuel revealed that its molecular weight is 140 kg/kmol and its molar H/C ratio is 2. In order to evaluate some of its properties, the fuel was burned with stoichiometric atmospheric air in a constant pressure, steady-flow reactor. The fuel and air entered the reactor at 25 C, and the products of complete combustion were cooled to 25 C. At...
