In an oil fired boiler the fuel had an analysis by mass: carbon 84%, Hydrogen 11%, Sulphur 3%, and Oxygen 2%, remained incombustible. The analysis of dry gas flue gas by volume gave: combined CO2 9.7%, CO 0.5%, O2 2.95%, and N2 86.85%, there being no SO3. Calculate per kg of fuel: 1- Mass of air supplied. 2- Percentage excess air supplied. 3- Mass of flue gas formed. 4- Mass of water vapor formed.
