A fuel gas produced by gasifying coal is to be burned with 20% excess air. The gas contains 50.0 mole % nitrogen and the balance carbon monoxide and hydrogen. A sample of the gas is passed through an infrared spectrometer, which registers a signal R that depends on the mole fraction of carbon monoxide in the sample, and a reading R 38:3 is recorded. Analyzer calibration data are as follows: x (mol CO/mol) 0.05 0.10 0.40 0.80 1.00 R 10.0...

1. 20 kg/s of propane is burned with 50% excess air. Both streams are at 100oC when entering the combustion chamber. 80% of the propane is burned and 90% of the burned propane goes to CO2 and the remainder to CO. If the gases exit the combustion chamber at 1300oC what is the rate of heat production? (Note: All the species are gases. Use mean heat capacities or the first term of the cp expression for this problem)
