Question: Statement Liquid octane ( C 8 H 1 8 ) at 2 5 C , 1 atm and a mass flow rate of 0 .

Statement
Liquid octane (C8H18) at 25C,1atm and a mass flow rate of 0.57kgh enters an internal
combustion engine operating at steady state. The fuel burns with air entering the engine in
a separate stream at 25C,1atm. Combustion products exit at 670K,1atm with a dry
molar analysis of 11.4%CO2,2.9%CO,1.6%O2, and 84.1%N2. The engine develops
power at the rate of 3 kW .
Determine
(a) the balanced reaction equation.
(b) the rate of heat transfer from the engine, in kW.
(c) an exergetic efficiency for the engine.
Use the environment of Table A-26(Model II)
\table[[Standard Molar Chemical Exergy, ?ch(kJkmol), of Selected Substances at 298 K and,Model I ?a,Model |l ?band neglect the effects of motion and gravity.
