Question
The following is the ultimate analysis of a sample of petrol by weight : Carbon 85 percent, Hydrogen 15 percent.
Calculate the ratio of air to petrol consumption by weight if the volumetric analysis of the dry exhaust gas is : $\text{CO}_2 = 11.5$ percent; $\text{CO} = 1.2$ percent; $\text{O}_2 = 0.9$ percent and $\text{N}_2 = 86$ percent.
Also find percentage excess air.
