Theory: 1. ATF Vs equivalence ratio in Constant Volume condition. The Stoichiometric general equation for the combustion of methane is given as follows CxHy + a(O2 +3.76N2) = b(xCO2) + c((y/2)H2O) + 3.76a N2 + d(O2) + e(CO) For phi<1, the coefficient for CO(product), i.e, e=0, This is known a lean combustion For phi<1,…

The stoichiometric equation for CH4-Methane comnustion is CH4+2(O2 +3.76N2) ---> CO2+ 2H2O +7.52N2   1. Using "moles" method requires us to input the mass fractions of the air (0.21 oxygen + 0.79 nitrogen) at STP. to arrive at the correct no. of moles of air mass fraction, o2 = Moles, o2/( Moles, air)                       …
