Propane gas at 1 atm enters a reactor operating at steady state and burns with 20% excess au entering at 1 atm. Of the carbon entering with the fuel, 94% (molar basis) appears in the products as and the rest as CO. Heat transfer from the reactor occurs at a rate of per kmol of propane. Ignoring kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature of the combustion products exiting the reactor, in K.
