Question: In a test of a gas-turbine combustor, saturated-liquid methane at 115 K is to be burned with excess air to hold the adiabatic flame temperature

In a test of a gas-turbine combustor, saturated-liquid methane at 115 K is to be burned with excess air to hold the adiabatic flame temperature to 1600 K. It is assumed that the products consist of a mixture of CO2, H2O, N2, O2, and NO in chemical equilibrium. Determine the percent excess air used in the combustion, and the percentage of NO in the products.
