Complete combustion of 1 kmol of PROPANE GAS with 0% excess air produces (?????) kmol of carbon-dioxide gas. (enter a decimal number)

Expert Solution

The basic combustion process can be described by the fuel (the hydrocarbon) plus oxydizer (air or oxygen) called the Reactants, which undergo a chemical process while releasing heat to form the Products of combustion such that mass is conserved. Combustion process with 0% excess air is known as Stoichiometric Combustion, given Combustion is complete:

where z is known as the stoichiometric coefficient for the oxidizer (air), and Stoichiometric combustion assumes that no excess oxygen exists in the products, thus d = 0.

Propane is mixed with 20% excess air (propane air mixture is initially at 25 °C and 2.0 atm) and combusted at atmospheric pressure. It is assumed that the heat transfer between the chamber and the surroundings is negligible. In addition, you may assume that heat capacities of the gases are constant and that the reaction proceeds to 100% conversion.

Propane burns with 15% excess air. Before the propane-air mixture enters the burner, air preheats from 32 F to 575 F. Determine the requirements of the preheater (BTU / h) if the amount of propane fed to the burner is 1.35x105 SCFH (standard cubic feet per hour) Note: In this case, take standard conditions in the natural gas industry, such as 60 F and 1 atm. Report: a) Flow diagram of the complete process and its table of material balance...

Consider an adiabatic, piston cylinder assembly containing 1 kmol of propane (C3H8) and 7 kmol of oxygen (O2). The piston is initially pinned, and the pressure is P1=1000 kPa with temperature T=1000 K. The pin is removed and the system expands until the total cylinder pressure is P2=100 kPa and the temperature is T2=600 K. Assume ideal gases and constant specific heat.

In a closed combustion vessel, propane (C3H8) and air are mixed at equivalence ratio of 1.11, temperature of 298 K, and pressure of 1 bar. The mixture is burned to produce solely CO2, CO, H2O, and N2. The heat rejected from the vessel is 820 MJ/kmol of fuel. What are the final temperature and final pressure of the mixture? Since neither O2 nor H2 is present in the burned gas, dissociation can be neglected.
