    Open System and First Law of Thermodynamics

    • The first law of thermodynamics must be applied to an open system with an inlet/exhaust valve, such as a compressor and a turbine.

    Hole Expansion

    • If a thin homogeneous metallic plate containing a hole is heated sufficiently to cause expansion, and assuming the coefficient of surface expansion is linear, the area of the hole will increase at the same rate as the area of the metal increases.

    Flow Combination

    • A combination of laminar and turbulent flow is called critical flow.
