Types of Thermodynamic Systems
Types of Thermodynamic Systems
Thermodynamic systems can be classified into three types: isolated, closed, and open, based on their interactions with the surroundings.
Isolated System
Isolated System
An isolated system does not exchange energy or matter with its surroundings. It is completely isolated from the environment.
Closed System
Closed System
A closed system can exchange heat with its surroundings but not matter. The total mass remains constant.

Study Notes
Types of Thermodynamic Systems
- A thermodynamic system can be classified into three types: isolated, closed, or open.
Characteristics of Each System
- A closed system can exchange heat with its surroundings, but not matter.
- An isolated system cannot exchange either matter or energy with its surroundings.
- An open system can interact with its surroundings by exchanging both matter and energy.
Thermodynamic Equilibrium
- Thermodynamic equilibrium is characterized by the absence of flow of both mass and energy.
