3.6) A system whose composition is given below is in equilibrium at P = 101 kPa and T = 298 K. Whatare the enthalpy (kJ/kg), specific volume (m3/kg), and quality χ of the mixture?
a) A table of the given and computed parameters is:

The mixture molecular mass is:
M =∑
yiMi = (0.141)(18.01) + (0.125)(44.01) + (0.734)(28.01)

If all of the water is vapor, the water partial pressure would be
PH2O = yi · P = 0.141(101) = 14.2 kPa
Whoever, at T = 298K, the saturation pressure of the water is 3.17 kPa (Table 3.1), so some fractionof the water will be liquid. The quality of the gas mixture is given in the Appendix:

The enthalpy of vaporization hfg is 44.02/18.01 = 2444 kJ/kg (Table 3.1)The term vfg is vg-vf = (1.362-0.001) = 1.361 m3/kg (Table 3.1)
Therefore using equations (3.55) and (3.57)
The enthalpy is given by:
h = x1h1 + x2h2 + x3h3 − (1−X)x1hfg
h = (0.0888)(−13,424) + (0.1924)(−8942) + 0− (1− 0.197)(0.0888)(2444)
h = −3087 kJ/kg
The specific volume is given by:
v = x1v1 + x2v2 + x3v3 − (1−X)x1vfg
v = (0.0888)(1.362) + (0.1924)(0.557) + (0.7189)(0.875)− (1− 0.197)(0.0888)(1.361)
v = 0.760 m3/kg

3.7) A four cylinder four stroke 2.8 L port injected spark ignition engine is running at 2000 rpm on a lean(φ =0.9) mixture of octane and standard air (101 kPa, 298 K) If the octane flow rate is 2.5 g/s, whatis the mass of fuel entering each cylinder per cycle and the volumetric efficiency ?

(0.287)(298)= 1.18 kg/m3 = 1180 g/m3

3.8) An engine cylinder has a 90 mm bore and a 85 mm stroke, and contains air and residual gases at 350K and 1 bar. If the engine is to operate on diesel fuel and run lean with an overall equivalence ratioof φ = 0.7, what is the mass of diesel fuel that needs to be injected during the compression stroke ?(Assume R of the air-residual gas mixture is 0.29 kJ/kg K).
a)
m = ma +mr
We know that
f =mr
m
Substituting we have
ma = (1− f)m
Since
φ =FA

Substituting
mf = φ(FAs)(ma) = φ(FAs)(1− f)m

From Table 3.5, AFs=14.30 or FAs=0.0699
The mass of injected diesel fuel is:
mf = (0.7)(0.0699)(1− 0.015)(0.53)
mf = 2.5× 10−2 g

3.12) At what temperature does the saturation pressure Psat of an octane droplet equal 0.5 bar ? At thattemperature, what is the enthalpy of vaporization hfg ?
a) Antoine’s equation is:
log10 (Psat) =
[a− b
T + c
]Solving for T and using coefficients from Table 3.3
T =b
a− log10 (Psat)− c
Using coefficients from Table 3.3
T =1355.1
4.0487− log10 (0.5)− (−63.633) = 375 K (octane)
T =1739.6
4.1373− log10 (0.5)− (−105.62) = 498 K (tetradecane)
This shows the greater volatility of octane relative to tetradecane

The “charge cooling” effect of the vaporization of methanol and nitromethane is 2-3 times thatof octane and tetradecane on a per kg basis. The charge cooling produces greater volumetricefficiencies by increasing the density of the cylinder gases.

3.16) Derive Equation (??) for the species mole fractions of a mixture of air and residual gas.
a) The mixture m is composed of the residual mass mr and the premixed fuel-air mfa

So the species mole fractions accounting for both the residual gas and the inlet fuel- air

18 CHAPTER 3. FUEL, AIR, AND COMBUSTION THERMODYNAMICS
3.17) At what equivalence ratio for octane-air mixtures does the carbon to oxygen ratio of the system equalone? Why is this of interest?
a) The combustion equation is
C8H18 +asφ
(O2 + 3.76N2) −→ Products
From Table 3.5, as = 12.50 for octane.For every mole of octane, there are 8 carbon atoms and 2as/φ oxygen atoms. The carbon/oxygenratio is:
[C]
[D]=
8
2(asφ
)So this ratio is equal to one, i.e. CO formation,
φ =2as8
=(2)(12.50)
8= 3.125
Therefore for φ > 3.125, there will be solid carbon in the products, since the carbon atoms are inexcess of those used to form CO.
