In a new high-efficiency furnace, natural gas, assumed to be 90% methane and 10% ethane (by volume)

Question:

In a new high-efficiency furnace, natural gas, assumed to be 90% methane and 10% ethane (by volume) and 110% theoretical air each enter at 25°C, 100 kPa, and the products (assumed to be 100% gaseous) exit the furnace at 40°C, 100 kPa. What is the heat transfer for this process? Compare this to an older furnace where the products exit at 250°C, 100 kPa.
