The composition by weight of kerosene is 25% dodecane, 28.3% tetradecane, 36.2% cyclohexane and 10.5% naphthalene. Partial combustion of kerosene produces stack gas at 590K and 110KPa containing 8.28% CO2, 2.90% CO and 8.70% H2. 15.133 m3 of air at 28OC, 745 mmHg and 80%RH is supplied per kilogram of fuel burned. Calculate the orsat analysis of the stack gases.
