Question

For the furnace's design, consider using fuel oil as the source of en- ergy with the following ultimate analysis (%w/w basis) to be burnt with 15% excess air. • Assume complete combustion, determine the followings: 1. The mass of air required to burn 1 kg fuel oil. 2. The mass of flue gas produced from the combustion of 1 kg fuel oil. 3. The flue gas composition (%v/v). 4. The volume of flue gas produced (a t 300°C and 1 atm) from 1 kg fuel oil
