I want to reformulate the question. What I need is the heat of combustion.

Heat of combustion can be calculated from the heat of formation (enthalpy of formation) of reactants and combustion products.

Hi lipchakster.

 

PingPong is Right you can use Hess' Law using the standard heat of formation values for the products and the reactants

this link can illustrate this method.

Hysys has among its properties heat of combustion for a stream. You shoulds have access to component values in the library, too. And there are available lots of references for same. Mostly the values are given at standard conditions. Did you search with Google?

Thanks, I ve already calculated the heat of combustion using the enthalpies variation. 

 

Thanks again.
