Problem 15.10: Liquid octane (C8H18) enters a steady-flow combustion chamber at 25°C and 1 atm at a rate of 0.35 kg/min. It is burned with 50 percent excess air that also enters at 25°C and 1 atm. After combustion, the products are allowed to cool to 25°C. Assuming complete combustion and that all the H2O in the products is in liquid form, determine (a) the heat transfer rate from the combustion chamber, (b) the entropy generation rate, and (c) the...

A small gas turbine uses C8H18(l) for fuel and it enters the combustion chamber at 25◦C whereas air coming from the high pressure stage is at 287◦C . The products of combustion leave the combustion chamber at 1167◦C . The fuel is injected at a rate of 0.95 kg/min where it is mixed and burned with 400 % excess air. An analysis of combustions reveals that all the hydrogen in the fuel burns to H2O but only 90% of the...

The propane tank for my barbeque holds seven pounds of liquid propane (C3H8). a) If the tank ruptured, what would be the size of the cloud of propane which forms? b) If the cloud of propane mixed with just the right (stoichiometric) quantity of air, and ignited, the resulting reaction would produce 3 moles C02, 4 moles H20 and would have 20 moles N2 from the original air, for each mole of propane combusted. Assuming a final temperature of 1100°C,...
