Fuel is fed to a furnace at 25°C and a molar flow rate of 100 moles/hr. This fuel is one of these hydrocarbons: methane, ethane, acetylene, propane, or butane. The fuel is subject to a combustion reaction in the furnace: 1. the heat duty in kJ/hr (labeled or 2. the adiabatic flame temperature (i.e., for By specifying the exit temperature of the furnace, the enthalpy balance at steady operation requires that excess heat (denoted by Download the CDF file to view the simulation using the free Wolfram CDF player. |
