Study Notes
Work
- Work is defined as a force acting through a displacement perpendicular to the force.
- The formula for work: W = F x d, measured in N-m or Joules.
- Work done by a system is always negative (-).
Thermodynamic Systems
- Closed system: Allows mass flow across its boundaries.
- Open system: Involves a flow of energy.
Quasi-Equilibrium Process
- Deviation from thermodynamic equilibrium is significant.
Thermodynamics
- First Law of Thermodynamics: Energy can be converted but not destroyed.
- For a closed system: Energy entering the system = change in energy within the system + energy leaving the system.
- Single Stream, Single Flow (SSSF) process: Energy entering the system ≠ energy leaving the system.
- A closed system undergoing a steady-state process: Ein = ΔE + Eout and min = Δm + mout.
- Closed system without work interaction with surroundings: Heat transfer = total work of the system.
- Processes in a closed system are called non-flow processes.
Specific Enthalpy
- Formula: h = u + pv
Scenario
- Pressure in the cylinder: p=C/V
- Latent vaporization process: turning a gas into a liquid.
- Heat transfer per unit mass: q=Q/m
- Work done by the system: Negative.
- Final pressure in the cylinder: 200 KPa.
