Air exits the compressor and enters the combustor of a gas turbine engine with a flow rate of 84 kg/s at 800 K. Ethane (C2H6) at 298 K enters the combustor to create an overall equivalence ratio of 0.62.
Required:
a. Determine the mass flow rate of fuel, in kg/s.
b. Determine the heat release rate, in kW.
c. Determine the mass fraction of oxygen in the products.
d. Determine the adiabatic flame temperature.
