Problem 3: To ensure complete combustion, 20 percent excess air is supplied to a
furnace burning natural gas. The gas composition (by volume) is methane 95 percent,
ethane 5 percent. Calculate the moles of air required per mole of fuel.

Solution :

(95%) CH4+ 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O

Theoretical required to burn =

= 190 mole O2

(5%) C2H6+ O2 2CO2 + 3H2O

Theoretical O2 required to burn C2H6 =

= 17.5 mole O2

3
Total theoretical O2 required = (190 +17.5) mole O2
= 207.5 mole O2

Theoretical air required =

= 987.5 mole air

 (moles air)fed required = 1185.24

Problem 4: A coal with dry, ash-free composition of 0.87 C, 0.09 H2 , 0.02 S and 0.02 O2
is burned with 25% excess air. The as-fired ash and moisture contents are 6% and 4%,
respectively.
(a) What are the stoichiometric and actual air-fuel ratios?
(b) What are the flue gas composition ?

Solution : (a)

Basis: 100 kg coal

Therefore, Moisture= 100  4% = 4 Kg


Ash content = 100  6% = 6 Kg

Ash and moisture free coal = 100-(6+4) = 90 Kg

Amount of carbon = 90  0.87 = 78.3 Kg; C + O2 CO2


Amount of hydrogen = 90  0.03 = 8.1 Kg; 2H2+ O2 H2O
Amount of sulfur = 90  0.02 = 1.8 Kg; S+ O2 SO2
Amount of oxygen = 90  0.02 = 1.8 Kg;

6
Theoretically, O2 required for 100 Kg = (208.8 + 64.8 + 1.8 – 1.8) = 273.6 Kg

 Theoretically, air required =

= 1190.16 Kg air

 Stoichiometric air to fuel ratio = 1190.16 : 100


= 11.9 : 1

7
 Actual air to fuel ratio = 1487.7 : 100
= 14.877 : 1
= 14.88 : 1

8
Solution : (b)

Coal CO2 (q1)


SO2(q2)
ash(q3) Flue gas
25% excess air H2O(q4)
(N2+O2) N2(q6)
O2(q5)

As information given, ash in flue gas, q3 = 100  6% = 6 Kg

For complete combustion, calculations:-


Form (a), amount of C = 78.3 Kg
 CO2 in flue gas, q1 = 78.3  = 287.1 Kg

Form (a), amount of S = 1.8 Kg


 SO2 in flue gas, q2 = 1.8  = 3.6 Kg

9
Form (a), amount of H = 8.1 Kg
 H2O in flue gas, q4 = (8.1  ) + 4  Form (a), Moisture of coal 4 Kg 
= 76.9 Kg

Form (a), air fed = 1487.7 Kg

 N2 fed = N2 in flue gas, q6 =

=1376.53 Kg N2
From (a),
theoretical O2 required = 273.6 Kg O2

 O2 fed =

= 342.17 Kg O2

O2 in flue gas, q5 = (342.17 – 273.6) Kg O2


= 68.57 Kg O2

10
Calculating composition of flue gas

Component Amount (Kg) in flue gas Composition in flue gas


CO2 287.1 0.158
SO2 3.6 0.002
ash 6 0.003
H2O 76.9 0.042
O2 68.57 0.038
N2 1376.53 0.757
Total = 1818.7
