Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering City University of Hong Kong CA 4679 Environmental Engineering & Management In Class Short Quiz. #4 Make necessary numerical assumptions and show all your steps. Indicate your final answer (with the unit) or your conclusion. Work on your own. No communication with each other. Q. Alanine (C3H;NO;) is used as a fuel to produce steam (somebody is crazy!). It is being combusted at a rate of 50 kg/h. (a) What is the stoichiometric oxygen required for the complete combustion of alanine? (hint: “N” goes to NO> in complete combustion) [50%]. (b) Assume that the alanine mass is completely combusted with stoichiometric oxygen (i 100% efficiency), During steam production, the combusted gas stream cools down from 1000°C to 250°C. Suppose the cooled air stream mixes with that another air stream — supplied at a rate of 100 kg/h at 30°C. Estimate the temperature of the mixed gas stream [50%]. @® (©) [Bomus question: What is/are your assumption(s) in (b)2} [20%] MWD plane = OF 9 /met Colo 0, + kira, ay 300, + Thos NO, Ce) Sroiclrenuthe On vepevacl an .
