During the power stroke of an internal combustion engine, the air-fuel mixture is ignited and the expanding hot gases push on the piston. Fuel efficiency is maximized in this process when the ignited gas is as hot as possible, the gas expands allowing a maximum amount of work to be done, and cooled exhaust gas is released at the end of the cycle. Assuming the engine exhibits the highest efficiency possible, which of the following statements concerning the exhaust gas...

As with any combustion reaction, the products of combusting a hydrocarbon fuel (CxHy) with oxygen (O2) are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). A mass of 16.89 g for an unknown fuel was combusted in a reaction vessel containing an unknown amount of oxygen. At the end of the reaction, there still remained 16.85 g of the fuel as well as 0.0654 g of water and 0.1198 g of carbon dioxide. The oxygen was completely consumed during the reaction. How...

A heater burns n-butanol with 60% excess air. Combustion is complete, the fuel is exhausted and the stack gas leaves at a temperature of 260 °C and a pressure of 100 kPa. What would be the results of an Orsat analysis of the flue gas? (Calculate both dry and wet basis.) How many liters of flue gas are produced per mole of n-butanol burnt?

An air–fuel mixture enters a constant area combustion chamber at a velocity of 100 m/s a pressure of 70 kPa and a temperature of 150°C. Assuming that the fuel–air ratio is 0.04, the heating value of the fuel is 30 MJ/kg, and the mixture has the properties of air, calculate the Mach number in the gas flow after combustion is completed and the change of stagnation temperature and stagnation pressure across the combustion chamber. Neglect the effects of viscosity and...
