Question

Synthetic Natural Gas (SNG) has a molar composition of 96.59% CH4, 1.9% CO2, 1.29% H2, and 0.22% CO.

One mole of SNG (GCV = 858.14 KJ/mol) was burned in a furnace to produce a burner gas at 250 degree C composed of 0.85 mol CO2, 0.12 mol CO, 0.08 mol O2, 1.5 mol
N2 and 0.56 mol H2O. Calculate for the
a. %CV loss due to sensible heat
b. %CV loss due to unburnt CO
c. %CV loss due uncondensed water
d. Thermal efficiency of the combustion 
Use perry for Cp

Expert Solution
Step 1

Note: We are authorized to answer three subparts at a time, since you have not mentioned which part you are looking for, so we are answering the first three subparts, please repost your question separately for the remaining subpart.

Given data:

Composition of SNG is,

CH4 = 96.59 %

CO2 = 1.9 %

H2= 1.29 %

CO = 0.22 %

Temperature of exhaust gas =250 0C

Amount of species in burner of exhaust gas is,

CO2 = 0.85 mol

CO = 0.12 mol

 O2= 0.08 mol

N2 = 1.5 mol

Gross calorific value of SNG = 858.14 kJ/mol
