A furnace burns natural gas at a rate of 10 m³n/s, with 10% excess air. The composition of natural gas is: CO₂ = 0,2%, CH4 = 90,0%, C₂H6= 5,0%, C3H8 = 1,5%, C4H10 = 0,5%, C5H12 = 0,1%, N₂= 2,7%.. Assume complete combustion of the gas. a) The volume of CO₂, H₂O and Air (m³); b) Air consumption in the boiler (in m³n/h); c) The total volume of gases produced (in m³n/h).

Question
A furnace burns natural gas at a rate of 10 m³n/s, with 10% excess air. The composition of
natural gas is: CO₂ = 0,2%, CH4 = 90,0%, C₂H6- 5,0%, C3H8 = 1,5%, C4H10 = 0,5%, C5H12 =
0,1%, N₂= 2,7%.. Assume complete combustion of the gas.
a) The volume of CO₂, H₂O and Air (m³);
b) Air consumption in the boiler (in m³n/h);
c) The total volume of gases produced (in m³n/h).
