Combustion Analysis of Natural Gas

This document analyzes the combustion of natural gas by providing its typical composition percentages and molecular weights of its components. It also lists the chemical equations for combustion reactions of common alkanes like methane, ethane, propane, and hexane. Key calculations provided include the amount of energy in the fuel measured in MMBTU/hr, and the gross and lower calorific values of the fuel.
