Percent Excess Air Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Percent Excess Air = ((Moles of Air Fed-Moles of Air Theoretical)/Moles of Air Theoretical)*100
% Excess Air = ((M_Fed-M_Theoretical)/M_Theoretical)*100
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Percent Excess Air - Percent Excess Air means that amount of air supplied in addition to the theoretical quantity necessary for complete combustion of all fuel or combustible waste material present.
Moles of Air Fed - (Measured in Mole) - Moles of Air Fed is defined as total moles of air that is being fed to the process for combustion.
Moles of Air Theoretical - (Measured in Mole) - Moles of Air Theoretical is the exact amount of air required to provide the right amount of oxygen for complete combustion.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Moles of Air Fed: 10 Mole --> 10 Mole No Conversion Required
Moles of Air Theoretical: 8 Mole --> 8 Mole No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

% Excess Air = ((M_Fed-M_Theoretical)/M_Theoretical)*100 --> ((10-8)/8)*100

Evaluating ... ...

% Excess Air = 25

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

25 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

25 <-- Percent Excess Air
