    TUTORIAL 1: Combustion

    1. A coal sample has a mass analysis of 80.4% carbon, 3.9% hydrogen, 5.0% oxygen, 1.1% nitrogen, 1.1% sulfur and the rest in noncombustible ash. For complete combustion with 120% of the theoretical amount of air, determine the air-fuel ratio on a mass basis. 2. The components of the exhaust gas of a spark-ignition engine using a fuel mixture represented as C8H17 have a dry molar analysis of 8.7% CO2, 8.9% CO, 0.3% O2, 3.7% H2, 0.3% CH4 and 78.1% N2. Determine the equivalence ratio. 3. A Natural gas with the volumetric analysis 97.3% CH4, 2.3% CO2, 0.4% N2 is burned with air in a furnace to give products having a dry molar analysis of 9.2% CO2. 3,84%O2, 0.64%CO, and the remainder N2. Determine a. the percent theoretical air. b. the dew point temperature, in oC, of the combustion products at 1 atm. 4. Methane (CH4) at 25o, enters the combustor of a simple open gas turbine power plant and burns completely with 400% of theoretical air entering the compressor at 25oC, 1 atm. Products of combustion exit the turbine at 577oC, 1 atm. The rate of heat transfer from the gas turbine is estimated as 10% of the net power developed. Determine the net power output, in MW, if the fuel mass flow rate is 1200 kg/h. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. 5. A closed, rigid vessel initially contains a gaseous mixture of 1kmol of pentane (C5H12) and 150% of theoretical air at 250C, 1 atm. If the mixture burns completely, determine the heat transfer from the vessel, in kJ, and the final pressure, in atm, for a final temperature of 800 K.

    6. Methane (CH4) at 25oC, 1 atm enters an insulated reactor operating at steady state and burns with the theoretical amount of air entering at 250C, 1 atm. The products contain CO2,CO,H2O,O2 and N2 and exit at 2260 K. Determine the fraction of the entering carbon in the fuel that burn to CO2 and CO respectively. 7. Liquid methanol (CH3OH) at 250C, 1 atm enters an insulated reactor operating at steady state and burns completely with air entering at 1000C, 1 atm. if the combustion products exit at 12560C, determine the percent excess air used. Neglect kinetic and potential energy effects.
