**Theoretical and Excess Air Calculation** In an educational setting focused on chemical engineering or environmental science, calculating the amount of air required for combustion is essential. Below is an explanation of a specific problem along with a visual illustration: --- **Problem Statement:** - "One hundred m³/h of butane and 5000 m³/h of air are fed to a combustion reactor. Calculate the percent air." **Solution:** - The answer provided: **61.9%** **Clarification Needed:** - A handwritten note reads: "I am unclear at this point. If excess air was not given 61.9% would not have calculated it." **Graphical Illustration:** - A diagram is present showing a "Feed rate of air gas" with a noted calculation: - "Calculated = 5000" **Note:** This illustrates a rate calculation but lacks further explanation of how the numbers were derived. **Request for Explanation:** - A handwritten query: "I do not know how this number was obtained. Please explain." --- This educational exercise involves understanding how to calculate the air required for the combustion of fuels like butane and clarifying doubts in determining excess air percentages.
