Hello,
I'm trying to learn how to use the solve function in Matlab to solve a set of chemical equations. The script I have is:
%--------------------------Methane/Air Flame--------------------------%

%Equilibrium Eq.:
%a1CH4+a2(O2+3.76N2)-->b1CH4+b2O2+b3H2O+b4CO2+b5CO+b6N2+b7NO
a1= 1; a2= 2; %Stoich. reactant coefficients
P = 1 ;%Reaction pressure (atm)
T_f = 300;%Temp of reactants (K)
%Define Cp data for each species
R = 8.314; %kJ/(kmol*K);
syms b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 b6 b7 %Assign symbols and species balance
C_bal = b1+b4+b5-a1;
O_bal = 2*b2+b3+2*b4+b5+b7-2*a2;
H_bal = 4*b1+2*b3-4*a1;
N_bal = 2*b6+b7-2*3.76*a2;
T_guess = 2230; %Guess a flame temp (Kelvin)
T_ref = 278; %Reference temp
%Temp in col 1 (K), Kp in col 2

%Interpolate to get Kp's @ T_guess

Kp2 = interp1(Kp_data2(:,1),Kp_data2(:,2),T_guess);
Kp3 = interp1(Kp_data3(:,1),Kp_data3(:,2),T_guess);
%Now write the Kp equation for the given value of T_guess:
Kp_eqn1=P^(1/2)*(b1/(b5*(b2/(b1+b2+b3+b4+b5+b6))^(1/2)))-Kp1;
Kp_eqn2=(b3^2*b4)/(b1*b2^2)-Kp2;

I'm just wondering why it says spurious solutions and does this means
[b1a,b2a,b3a,b4a,b5a,b6a,b7a] = [0,0,2,1,0,7.5,0] ??
Why does it have all the decimals and imaginary parts in the solutions?
Thank you.

[b1a,b2a,b3a,b4a,b5a,b6a,b7a] as [0,0,2,1,0,7.5,0] would mean that there is a likely solution to the equation in which b1 was 0, b2 was 0, b3 was 2, b4 was 1, b5 was 0, b6 was 7.5, and b7 was 0.
The "spurious solutions" is a warning that the symbolic engine recognized that there are round-off difficulties in the calculation that might have led to false solutions being found. You need to substitute the values back into the equations to verify that they really are solutions.
The decimal and imaginary part combinations are algebraic solutions to the question. You did not restrict any variable to being real-valued only.
