Question
A 10% rich mixture of Heptane (C,H16) and air is initially at a pressure of 1 bar and
temperature of 100°C, and is polytropically compressed through a volumetric ratio of 6 to
1. It is ignited and adiabatic combustion proceeds at constant volume. The maximum
temperature reached is 2627°C and at this temperature the equilibrium constants are
PH₂OPCO
= 6.72
PCO₂PH₂
P²coPo₂
= 0.054
Pco2po
' = 1bar is a reference pressure for the equilibrium constants. if the constituents of the
gas are CO2, CO, H₂O, H₂, O2 and N₂:
(a) Calcuate the reaction equation without dissociation
(b) Calculate the equilibrium product composition.
(c) Verify that approximately 30.2 % of the carbon has burned incompletely.
Notes:
the number of moles is not conserved in this reaction!
You may use any method to solve the (nonlinear) equations you derive.
