Methane is mixed with pure oxygen at 20% excess over the stoichiometric requirement and undergoes combustion in a burner operating at 2 bar. The inlet gases are at 40 °C and the effluent stream is at 1300 °C. Determine the amount of heat assuming complete oxidation of methane to carbon dioxide and water(gas). For simplicity, assume the heat capacities of the species to be constant and equal to the values given below (in J/mol K): CP,CH4 = 55.42, CP,O2 = 32.53, CP,N2 = 30.37, CP,CO2 = 48.65, CP,H2O = 36.94.
