The basic thermodynamic principles are useful in estimation of properties related to combustion.

Stoichiometric calculations are useful in estimation of fuel-air requirements for a combustion process.

Adiabatic flame temperature indicates maximum possible temperature in combustion process.

Thermodynamic relations can be used to relate the change in Gibbs free energy with equilibrium constant.

Equilibrium composition can be used to calculate adiabatic flame temperature using an iterative procedure.
