Question: An internal combustion engine uses liquid peanut ( C 4 H 1 0 ) fuel, at a rate of 0 . 0 0 5 Kg

An internal combustion engine uses liquid peanut (C4H10) fuel, at a rate of 0.005Kg/s and air at a rate of 120% of the theoretical air.
The air and fuel enter the engine at a temperature of 25C and the exhaust gases leave at a temperature of 900C.
1. For each mole of butane, how many moles of oxygen are there in the combustion products?
2. What is the dew point of the products?
3. What is the thermal power emitted in the burning process?
If it is known that 90% of the carbon in the fuel is burned to CO2 and the remaining 10% is burned to CO:
4. How many moles of oxygen are there in the products per mole of butane?
5. What is the dew point of the products?
6. What is the thermal power emitted in the burning process?
