The objectives of Chapter 15 are to:
|
|
|
Give an overview of fuels and combustion. |
|
|
|
Apply the conservation of mass to reacting systems to determine balanced reaction equations. |
|
|
|
Define the parameters used in combustion analysis, such as air-fuel ratio, percent theoretical air, and dew point temperature. |
|
|
|
Calculate the enthalpy of reaction, enthalpy of combustion, and the heating values of fuels. |
|
|
|
Apply energy balances to reacting systems for both steady-flow control volumes and fixed mass systems. |
|
|
|
Determine the adiabatic flame temperature for reacting mixtures. |
|
|
|
Evaluate the entropy change of reacting systems. |
|
|
|
Analyze reacting systems from the second-law perspective. |
