Propane gas is burned using air; both are at 25°C and 1 atm. 150% excess air (ie 250% of the theoretical air) is used. The products of the combustion are carbon dioxide(gas) and vapor water along with the excess oxygen. Predict the adiabatic flame temperature, in degrees K, in the steady-flow combustion chamber.

Use the thermodynamic data from your textbook, Appendix E for all the required data.

Carbon monoxide is burned with excess air at 1 atm in an adiabatic reactor. The reactants are fed at 25C and the final temperature (i.e., the adiabatic flame temperature) is 1500C. (a) Calculate the percentage excess air fed to the reactor. USE THE HEAT OF REACTION METHOD (THIS ANSWER SHOULD BE 99.1% excess O2) (b) If the percentage excess air were increased, how would the adiabatic flame temperature change and why would it change in this manner?

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)

The next three questions are based on the combustion of propane gas (C3H8) with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor. C3H8(g) + 5 O2(g) → 3 CO2(g) + 4 H2O(g) Stu Dent measures exactly 5.10 g of C3H8 and burns it with excess oxygen gas. What is his theoretical yield of carbon dioxide gas?  What is his theoretical yield of water vapor?  (Both answers should have 3 significant digits and units of g) Stu measures his experimental products. He finds...
