I need to verify my work and answer for the following problem

7-1. A Corporation has developed an exotic fuel whose composition is thought to be CO2H4. A combustion test is to be conducted in which this fuel is injected axially at 367K as a turbulent jet into a 1.83m long combustor. Air is provided at 811K and 20atm. Premixed combustion tests at the same pressure and temperatures indicate that the maximum laminar flame speed is approximately 0.61sm. The viscosity of the fuel is estimated to be 5(10)5m2Ns. at 367K. Determine the minimum number of flames and the corresponding nozzle size required to burn 1.82kg/s of the fuel within the combustor assuming that the jet flames formed by each nozzle is a momentum controlled turbulent flame that does not interact with the neighboring flames within the combustor. Assume that the co-flowing air does not have a significant influence on the flame length. To achieve a practicable combustor, be sure to consider the possibility of blowout
