Methane is burned with air and the exhaust products are measured (on a dry, volumetric basis) to be 4.8% CO2, 0.12% CO, 12.25% O2, and balance N2. Determine (a) the air-tofuel ratio (mass based) (5 points), (b) equivalence ratio (5 points) (c) the percent theoretical air (%) (5 points), (d) the percent excess air (%) (5 points), and (e) exhaust dew point (°C) if the exhaust is at 1 atm (5 points). (25 points)

Methane at 25°C is burned in a boiler furnace with 10.0% excess air. The air enters the burner at a temperature of 100°C. Ninety percent of the methane fed is consumed; the product gas is analyzed and found to contain 10.0 mol CO2 per 1 mol of CO. The exhaust gases exit the furnace at 400°C. Calculate the rate of heat transferred from the furnace, given that a molar flow rate of 100 mol/s CH4 is fed to the furnace.

A propane burning engine is being evaluated and the exhaust gas collected on a dry basis is 10.1% CO2, 1.1% CO, 4.7% O2 and 84.1% N2. During the test, 0.50 kg of fuel is burned and 1.73 m3 of exhaust gas (again dry) was collected at 15°C and 108 kPa. However, after the test someone questions whether it was really propane that was burned. Using the data above, specify what hydrocarbon was burned.
