I don't know how detailed you want to get, but for sure combustion products are never just CO2 and H2O. For sure you will CO and NOx, and SOx or C depending on your fuel type and stoichiometry. And that's just brushing the surface...
About the fuel, THANKS! That's great to know.

About the exhaust - I meant to say "in a perfect world". I'll add that phrase in when completing the final draft. Trying to keep concepts simple here.

Thanks for the reply
