A combustor passes \( 60 \ \mathrm{kg/s} \) of air and burns \( 1.0 \ \mathrm{kg/s} \) of fuel. The overall air-fuel ratio is

  • A.60 to 1
  • B.15 to 1
  • C.0.017 to 1
  • D.600 to 1

Answer: A

Dividing gives 60 kilograms of air per kilogram of fuel, roughly four times leaner than stoichiometric for kerosene. Only the primary zone burns near 15 to 1, and the rest of the air cools the walls and dilutes the products.
