It is given that the fuel consumption of a car is 8.5 km/L when tit is moving at a speed of 90 km/h. Calculate the mass flow rate of fuel from the fuel tank to the car’s fuel injection system. Take specific gravity of fuel as 0.72.
Assume that gasoline is burned with 99% efficiency in a car engine, with 1% remaining unbumed in the exhaust gases as VOCs; If the engine exhausts 16 kg of gases (MW = 30) for each kg of gasoline (MW = 100), calculate the fraction of VOCs in the exhaust. Give your answer in parts per million.
answer key :
m = 450 kg, W = 45.89N = 10.32lb, m=450kg, W=275.3N
