Adiabatic Flame Temperature in Steady Combustion EXAMPLE 15-8 Liquid octane (C,H1g) enters the combustion chamber of a gas turbine steadily at 1 atm and 25°C, and it is burned with air that enters the com- bustion chamber at the same state, as shown in Fig. 15-27. Determine the adiabatic flame temperature for (a) complete combustion with 100 percent theoretical air, (b) complete combustion with 400 percent theoretical air, and (c) incomplete combustion (some CO in the products) with 90 percent theoretical air. Solution Liquid octane is burned steadily. The adiabatic flame temperature is to be determined for different cases.

HMW-3 Combustion in a diesel engine is assumed to begin at TDC and proceed at constant pressure. The air/fuel ratio is 27/1, the calorific value of fuel is 43 MJ/kg, and the specific heat of combustion products is given by: Cy = 0.71 + 20x10-5 T where T is the combustion products temperature in K unit. The gas constant for these products is taken to be 0.287 kJ/kg K. If the compression ratio is 15/1, and the temperature at the end of compression is 870 K, find at what percentage of the stroke the combustion is completed.
