is there any way to find out the temperature of gas resulting from the combustion (complete combustion) of diesel in air

Depends on the end condition, are you burning at constant pressure or constant volume. (For constant volume, around 2000 degC

See this article from Wiki, it should give you some idea.

thanks a lot,

by combustion of 1 kg diesel (approx 1.176 liters), is it possible to calculate the volume of exhaust gas generated , assuming complete combustion i.e air fuel ratio of 14.6:1 by mass
