where T0 is the initial temperature of the reactants and Tf is the adiabatic flame
temperature. Since the reactants are initially at 298.15K we can simplify the equations

Assuming Cp is a constant average value Cp we can take it out of the integral and
write the equation as

0.55 hf o H2 + +

Since enthalpies of formation of H2 ,O2 , and N2 are zero , we can simplify the equation
further as
0 = 0.55 hf o H2 O + CpH2 O (Tf 298.15)

Summary
The adiabatic flame temperature calculated using various assumptions are summarised
in the table below
Constant Cp
1744.80 K
Variable Cp
1748.63 K
Comments : We observe that all the approaches give very close answers. This is
becuase the constant CP used was at 1000K roughly close to the midpoint of 298K and
1700 K. The variable CP calculation also gives value. The temperatures are not high
enough for dissociation reactions to be have a substantial effect on the energetics of
the reaction and hence the AFT does not change drastically even when dissociation is
considered.

Question 2
We consider 1-butene as the fuel and air(Oxygen and Nitrogen) as the oxidiser. The
input file to solve for the adibatic flame temperature and product species mole fractions
using CEA is as follows:
Code
The output file is not presented as the plots already show the data.
The plots of adiabatic flame temperature, mole fraction of CO and mole fraction
of NO as functions of the equivalence ratio is plotted below. The mole fraction of
N O2 was less than the trace limit of 1E 5 set in the CEA program for all
equivalence ratios. Hence N O2 concentration as a function of equivalence ratio
is not plotted.

2.1
Part A
most of the fuel and oxidiser and completely consumer by the reaction and there is no
fuel or oxidiser in the products. Since only the combustion products and not the fuel
or oxidiser is present finally to be heated up by the heat of the reaction, we see that
the adiabatic flame temperature increases as we go close to = 1.0.As the equivalence
ratio is increased beyond 1.0 the fuel no longer has enough oxygen to burn and hence
remains unburned in the product. A part of the heat of the reaction is used to heat up
the unburnt fuel and hence we see that the adiabatic flame temperature decreases beyond
an equivalence ratio of 1.0.
This explains why the AFT is maximum close to = 1.0. However the actual maximum occurs at = 1.1 and not exactly at = 1.0. There could be some other factor to
explain this behaviour.
