Show that Tad >1400K & find the ratio of secondary to primary airflow

Liquid n-butane at T 0, is sprayed into a gas turbine, as in Fig. P15.84, with primary air flowing at 1.0 MPa, 400 K, in a stoichiometric ratio. After complete combustion, the products are at the adiabatic flame temperature, which is too high, so secondary air at 1.0 MPa, 400 K, is added, with the resulting mixture being at 1400 K. Show that Tad > 1400 K and find the ratio of secondary to primary airflow.

What are the equivalence ratio and the percent theoretical air?

A gas turbine burns natural gas (assume methane) where the air is supplied to the combustor at 1000 kPa, 500 K, and the fuel is at 298 K, 1000 kPa. What are the equivalence ratio and the percent theoretical air if the adiabatic flame temperature should be limited to 1800 K?
