Problem
Ethene, C2H4, and propane, C3H8, in a 1:1 mole ratio as gases are burned with 120% theoretical air in a gas turbine. Fuel is added at 25oC, 1 MPa, and the air comes from the atmosphere, at 25oC, 100 kPa, through a compressor to 1 MPa and is mixed with the fuel. The turbine work is such that the exit temperature is 800 K with an exit pressure of 100 kPa. Find the mixture temperature before combustion and the work, assuming an adiabatic turbine.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
