Study Notes
Thermodynamics - Chapter 1 Study Notes
- Enthalpy of an ideal gas is solely dependent on temperature.
- The Carnot cycle is the most efficient thermodynamic cycle.
- The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.
- Isothermal compression of an ideal gas results in zero enthalpy change.
- A process with no heat transfer is known as an adiabatic process.
- Compressing an ideal gas adiabatically causes its temperature to increase.
- The SI unit for pressure is the Pascal (Pa).
- The relationship Cp = Cv + R applies to ideal gases.
- In a flow process, neglecting kinetic and potential energies, the integral of Vdp represents shaft work.
- Enthalpy is the mechanical energy of pressure converted into heat energy.
- A Joule-Thomson coefficient of zero indicates an isothermal process.
- The entropy of a fluid passing through a nozzle remains the same.
- Thermal power plants convert fossil fuels into shaft work.
- Dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide (O2 and CO2) in water make it corrosive, reacting with metal to form iron oxide.
