Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics CHAPTER 1 THERMODYNAMIC CONCEPTS: 1. Define: (i) Reversible Process (iv) Intensive and Extensive properties (ii) System and Surroundings (v) Work done by a system. (iii) State of a System [DEC 2005] 10 Marks (i) REVERSIBLE PROCESS: The process is said to be reversible when the surrounding and system both are restored to their initial states at the end of the process. • The condition for reversible process is a system must be in thermodynamic equilibrium at all states. • The change in state of system should be finite means there should not be any spontaneous change in state from the equilibrium. • Example – Frictionless adiabatic expansion or compression of gas. Frictionless isothermal expansion or compression of gas. V O G C E (ii) SYSTEM AND SURROUNDINGS: System The system is defined as a prescribed region of space or finite quantity of matter surrounded by an envelope called boundary. • The boundary may be real physical surface or it may be some imaginary surface. The boundary may be fixed or it may be moving. • In a broad sense, the system is defined as a specified region where changes due to transfer of mass or energy (i.e. heat and work) or both to be studied. • In a system it is not necessary that the volume or shape should remain fixed. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 1

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics Surrounding The space and matter external to the thermodynamic system and outside boundary is called surrounding. Universe When system and surrounding are put together, it is called universe. (iii) STATE OF A SYSTEM: The state is exact condition of the system. State is condition of system at particular instant of time, which can be described by properties such as pressure, temperature, volume, etc. • To define the state at least two properties are necessary. • Even if one property is changed, the state will change V O G C E (iv) INTENSIVE AND EXTENSIVE PROPERTIES: (a) Intensive property The properties, which do not depend upon the mass of the system, are known as intensive property. • Example –Pressure, Temperature, Density, etc. (b) Extensive property The properties, which depend on the mass of the system, are known as extensive property. • Example – Enthalpy, Entropy, Total Volume etc. (v) WORK DONE BY A SYSTEM. In order to include all thermodynamic processes, work is said to be done by a system when the sole effect external to the system can be reduced to the raising of a mass against gravity. OR Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 2

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics Work may be defined as energy transferred, without transfer of mass, across the boundary of a system because of an intensive property difference other than temperature, existing between the system and the surroundings. 2. Define Point function and Path function with example. [MAY 2006, MAY 2007, MAY 2008] 3 Marks Point function Point function is defined as a quantity, whose valve does not depends on the particular path followed during a process, but depend only on end states • The each thermodynamic property has single value at each state i.e. properties of system depends upon state of system. • Therefore, all thermodynamic properties are called as point function V O G C E Path function Path function is defined as a quantity, whose valve depends on the particular path followed during a process • Consider process 1.2 as shown in figure • System is undergoing a change from state 1 to state 2. • This change depends on intermediate states through which system changes its condition from point 1 to 2. • System can change its state by two paths. i.e. Path A and Path B as shown in figure • The work transfer can be represented by area under P.V. diagram. • Therefore work transfer will be different for path A and path B. • Thus work transfer depends upon the path of system and is called path function Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 3

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics 3. State the Zeroth law of thermodynamics. What is its significance? [DEC 2007] 4 marks Zeroth Law of thermodynamics states “If two systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third system, they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other.” • Let A, B and C A B AB are three bodies at different C C temperature. • If A and C are brought into good contact, energy in the form of heat will V O G C E transfer, from a body at higher temperature to a body at lower temperature. • After some time they will be in thermal equilibrium. • Now if B and C are brought in good contact, after some time they will also be in thermal equilibrium. • Then A and B are also in thermal equilibrium. • It helps to measure the temperature of any body 4. Explain with diagram quasi—static process. [DEC 2008] 4 marks Let us consider a system of gas contained in a cylinder (Figure 1). The system initially is in equilibrium state, represented by the properties p1, v1, t1. The weight on the piston just balances the upward force exerted by the gas. If the weight is removed, there will be an unbalanced force between the system and the surroundings, and under gas pressure, the piston will move up till it hits Figure 1:non quasi static process the stops. The system again comes to an equilibrium state, being described by the properties p2, v2, t2. But the intermediate states passed through by the system are none equilibrium states, which cannot be described by thermodynamic coordinates. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 4

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics Figure 2 shows points 1 and 2 as the initial and final equilibrium states jointed by a dotted line, which has got no meaning otherwise. Figure 2:p-v diagram of non quasi-V static processO G Now if the single weight on the piston is made up ofC many very small pieces of weights (Figure 3) andE these weights are removed one by one very slowly from the top of the piston, at any instant of the upward travel of the piston. If the gas system is isolated, the departure of the state of the system from the thermodynamic equilibrium state will be infinitesimally small. So every state passed through by the system will be an equilibrium state. Such a process, which is but a locus of all the equilibrium points passed through by the system, is known as quasi-static process (Figure 4) • ‘Quasi’ meaning ‘almost’. • Infinite slowness is the characteristic feature of a quasi-static process. • A quasi-static process is thus a succession of equilibrium states. • A quasi-static process is also called a reversible process. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 5

(i) Isentropic process (ii) Isobaric process (iii) lsochoric process (iv) Isothermal process (v) Polytropic process. [DEC 2011] 5 Marks V O G C E 6. Define the following terms: (i) System [DEC 2011] 10 Marks (ii) Quasi-static process (iii) Reversible process (iv) Thermodynamic work (v) Thermodynamic equilibrium. (i) System The system is defined as a prescribed region of space or finite quantity of matter surrounded by an envelope called boundary (ii) Quasi-static process A process, which is but a locus of all the equilibrium points passed through by the system, is known as quasi-static process Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 6

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics (iii) Reversible process A reversible process (also sometimes known as quasi-static process) is one which can be stopped at any stage and reversed so that the system and surroundings are exactly restored to their initial states. (iv) Thermodynamic work In order to include all thermodynamic processes, work is said to be done by a system when the sole effect external to the system can be reduced to the raising of a mass against gravity. (v) Thermodynamic equilibrium. If no spontaneous change in the properties of the system can occur even after a catalytic or other such small disturbance, then the system is said to be in thermodynamic equilibrium. V O G C E Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 7

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics FOR LAST MINUTE REVISION 1. Thermodynamics is an axiomatic science which deals with the relations among heat, work and properties of systems which are in equilibrium. It basically entails four laws or axioms known as Zeroth, First, Second and Third law of thermodynamics. 2. A system is a finite quantity of matter or a prescribed region of space. A system may be a closed, open or isolated system. 3. A phase is a quantity of matter which is homogeneous throughout in chemical composition and physical structure. V O G C E 4. A homogeneous system is one which consists of a single phase. 5. A heterogeneous system is one which consists of two or more phases. 6. A pure substance is one that has a homogeneous and invariable chemical composition even though there is a change of phase. 7. A system is in thermodynamic equilibrium if temperature and pressure at all points are same ; there should be no velocity gradient. 8. A property of a system is a characteristic of the system which depends upon its state, but not upon how the state is reached. Intensive properties do not depend on the mass of the system. Extensive properties depend on the mass of the system. 9. State is the condition of the system at an instant of time as described or measured by its properties. Or each unique condition of a system is called a state. 10. A process occurs when the system undergoes a change in state or an energy transfer takes place at a steady state. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 8

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics 11. Any process or series of processes whose end states are identical is termed a cycle. 12. The pressure of a system is the force exerted by the system on unit area of boundaries. Vacuum is defined as the absence of pressure. 13. A reversible process is one which can be stopped at any stage and reversed so that the system and surroundings are exactly restored to their initial states. An irreversible process is one in which heat is transferred through a finite temperature. 14. Zeroth law of thermodynamics states that if two systems are each equal in temperature to a third, they are equal in temperature to each other. V O G C E 15. Infinite slowness is the characteristic feature of a quasi-static process. A quasi-static process is a succession of equilibrium states. It is also called a reversible process.

[DEC 2009] 4 Marks OR State the first law of thermodynamics and prove that for non-flow process it leads to Q=W+∆U [DEC 2008] 4 Marks OR State the first law of thermodynamics for closed system undergoing a cycle. [MAY 2007] 4 Marks OR State and explain first law of thermodynamics for a closed system undergoing a process. [MAY 2009] 4 Marks First law of thermodynamics for closed system undergoing a cycle “When a system undergoes a thermodynamic cycle then the net heat supplied to the system from the surroundings is equal to net work done by the system on its surroundings” Mathematically, V O G C E The symbol (integral symbol with a circle in the middle) is used to indicate that the integration is to be performed over the entire cycle. or ∮ (������������������������ − ������������������������) = ������������ … . ������������������������������������ ������������ ������������������������������������������������������������������������ ������������������������������������������������������������������������ Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 12

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics First law of thermodynamics for a closed system undergoing a process. When a process is executed by a system, the change in stored energy of the system is numerically equal to the net heat interactions minus the net work interaction during the process. ∴ E2 – E1 = Q – W ∴ ΔE = Q – W or [ Q = Δ E + W ] Where E represents the total stored energy. If the electric, magnetic and chemical energies are absent and changes in potential and kinetic energy for a closed system are neglected, the above equation can be written as ������������ − ������������ = ∆ ������������ = ������������������������ − ������������������������ Where U represents the total Internal energy. Or ������������ = ������������ + ∆������������ V O G C E 2. Show that internal energy is property of system [DEC 2009, MAY 2011] 4 Marks • The internal energy (U) of the system is a property as it is dependent only on its and state and not on the path followed by the process. • This can be proved considering the process shown in figure. • Consider the initial condition of the system a represented by the point 1. A cycle may be executed either following the path 1-A-2- C-1 or 1-A-2-B-1. equation • Applying the ∫ δQ = ∫ δW to the above system in steps, we can write for the cycle 1-A-2-B-1 followed by the system. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 13

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics ∫ ∫2viaA (δQ − δW ) + IviaB (δQ - δW ) = 0 .........(1) 12 And for the path followed by the system 1 - A - 2 - C - 1 ∫ ∫2viaA (δQ − δW ) + IviaC (δQ - δW ) = 0 .........(2) 12 From equation 1 and 2 we get ∫ ∫2viaA (δQ − dW ) = IviaC (δQ - δW ) .........(3) 12 • It is obvious from the equation 11, that the value of the integral ∫ ( )1 δQ - δW 2 remains the same irrespective of the path followed by the system to reach from state 2 to state 1. • But the change of (δQ – δW) during the execution of the process represents ∆U as per first law of thermodynamics , therefore the internal energy is a point function and not a path function and it represents a property of the system. V O G C E 3. Derive expression for work done in a reversible polytropic process executed by a closed system.

How is it applied to nozzle? [DEC 2007] 4 Marks OR Explain steady flow energy equation. Apply it to nozzle, turbine and compressor. [DEC 2007] 5 Marks The first law of thermodynamics applied to steady flow processes gives us steady flow energy equation (S.F.E.E) which is mathematical statement of conservation of energy that includes all energy terms associated with mass flow As per law of conservation of energy Total energy at inlet + Heat interaction = Total energy at outlet + Work interaction Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 16

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics (S.F.E.E.) to Turbine In a steam or gas turbine steam or gas is passed through the turbine and part of its energy is converted into work in the turbine. This output of the turbine runs a generator to produce electricity as shown in Fig. The steam or gas leaves the turbine at lower pressure or temperature. Applying energy equation to the system. Here, Z1 = Z2 (i.e., Δ Z = 0) V O •• • ( ∆ ke + ∆ h) kJ/s G C − Q−W =m E The sign of Q is negative because heat is rejected (or comes out of the boundary).

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics The Q is taken as negative as heat is lost from the system and W is taken as negative as work is supplied to the system. (S.F.E.E.) to Nozzle In case of a nozzle as the enthalpy of the fluid decreases and pressure drops simultaneously the flow of fluid is accelerated. This is generally used to convert the part of the energy of steam into kinetic energy of steam supplied to the turbine.

What is Joule-Thomson coefficient? What conclusion can be drawn from a given value of this coefficient? [MAY 2006, DEC 2006, MAY 2008, DEC 2009, MAY 2010] OR Explain in brief Joule Thompson Porous Plug Experiment. Draw an inversion curve and explain the significance of Joule Thompson Coefficient. [MAY 2011] 6 Marks OR Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 19

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics What is throttling process? Define Joules Thomson coefficient, inversion point and inversion curve. [MAY 2012] 6 Marks When a fluid passes through a restriction such as a porous plug, a capillary tube, or an ordinary valve, its pressure decreases and the process is called the throttling process. The porous plug is shown in Fig. 1. V O G C E Figure 1. The Joule-Thomson porous plug experiment. In this system, Q = 0 ( system is isolated) W = 0 ( there is no work interaction) ΔPE= 0 ( inlet and outlet are at the same level) ΔKE= 0 ( kinetic energy does not change significantly) Applying the energy equation to the system h1 = h2 This shows that enthalpy remains constant during adiabatic throttling process. Throttling process was investigated by Joule and Thompson (Lord Kelvin) in their famous porous plug experiment (Fig.1). A fluid at a fixed temperature and pressure T1 and P1 (thus fixed enthalpy) is forced to flow through a porous plug, and its temperature and pressure downstream (T2 and P2) are measured. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 20

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics The experiment is repeated for different sizes of porous plugs, each giving a different set of T2 and P2. Plotting the temperatures against the pressures gives us an h= constant line on a T-P diagram, as shown in Fig 2. V O G C E Repeating the experiment for different sets of inlet pressure and temperature and plotting the results, we can construct a T-P diagram for a substance with several h= constant lines, as shown in Fig 3. JOULE CO-EFFICIENT The slope of a constant enthalpy line or a p-T diagram of a fluid during a throttling (h= constant) process at a particular state is called Joule-Thompson co-efficient, µ and is given by. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 21

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics µ =  ∂T  h ∂p • The temperature behavior of a fluid during a throttling (h= constant) process is described by the Joule-Thomson coefficient, and may be positive, zero or negative value • Thus the Joule-Thomson coefficient is a measure of the change in temperature with pressure during a constant-enthalpy process. Notice that if V o O• The states where µ = 0 are called 'inversion states' and locus of these states is called the G Cinversion curve. E • The region inside the inversion curve is the cooling region since µ is positive, and temperature falls with fall in pressure. • The region outside the inversion curve is the heating region since µ is negative and temperature rises with fall in pressure. • The temperature at the intersection of the P= 0 line (ordinate) and the upper part of the inversion line is called the maximum inversion temperature. • Cooling can take place only if the initial temperature before throttling is below the maxi-mum inversion temperature. • This temperature is about 5 Tc • It is clear from this diagram that a cooling effect cannot be achieved by throttling unless the fluid is below its maximum inversion temperature. This presents a problem for substances whose maximum inversion temperature is well below room temperature. • For hydrogen, for example, the maximum inversion temperature is = - 68°C. Thus hydrogen must be cooled below this temperature if any further cooling is to be achieved by throttling. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 22

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics FOR LAST MINUTE REVISION 1. Internal energy is the heat energy stored in a gas. The internal energy of a perfect gas is a function of temperature only. 2. First law of thermodynamics states: — Heat and work are mutually convertible but since energy can neither be created nor destroyed, the total energy associated with an energy conversion remains constant. Or — No machine can produce energy without corresponding expenditure of energy, i.e., it is impossible to construct a perpetual motion machine of first kind. First law can be expressed as follows : Q = ΔE + W Q = ΔU + W ... if electric, magnetic, chemical energies are absent and changes in potential and kinetic energies are neglected. V O G C E 3. There can be no machine which would continuously supply mechanical work without some form of energy disappearing simultaneously. Such a fictitious machine is called a perpetual motion machine of the first kind, or in brief, PMM1. A PMM1 is thus impossible. 4. The energy of an isolated system is always constant. 25 5.

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics CHAPTER 3 SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS 1. Explain with examples the limitations of First Law of Thermodynamics. [MAY 2011] 5 Marks OR What are the limitation of first law of thermodynamics? [MAY 2012] 4 Marks If a system executes a closed cycle, then according to the first law of thermodynamics, we can write. � ������������������������ = � ������������������������ V O G C E The first law of thermodynamics merely states that the work transfer equals the heat transfer and does not place any restriction on the direction of heat and work transfer. According to this law it is assumed that any change of thermodynamic state can take place in either direction. But it has been found that this is not the case, particularly in the inter-conversion of heat and work. It would be obvious from the following examples that the processes naturally proceed in certain directions and not in the opposite directions, even though the reversal of the processes does not violate the first law. 1. If two metal blocks at temperature T1 and T2 (T1 > T2) are brought into contact with each other and are isolated from the surroundings, heat flows from the high temperature block to the low temperature block till the temperature of both blocks are equal. From experience we know that the reverse process by which heat flows from the low temperature block to the high temperature block is impossible, i.e., the original temperature T1 and T2 cannot be restored, spontaneously.

A running automobile can be stopped by using the brake where the kinetic energy of automobile is converted into heat which increases the energy of the brake drum. But is not possible to accelerate the automobile by the cooling of the hot brake drum. 4. There is no change in the temperature of a gas during the free expansion through a valve into an evacuated vessel, and no work is done, but the volume increases and the pressure decreases. It the above process takes place in opposite direction then the gas at low pressure should rush back through the valve and compress itself to its original state. Such a reversal of the process is found to be impossible. V O G C E 5. As the car drives up the hill, the level of the fuel in the tank drops. If this process of driving up the hill is reversed i.e., the car is coasted down the hill, the fuel consumed cannot be reproduced. From the above examples, it may be concluded that the first law of thermodynamics provides a necessary but not sufficient condition for process to take place.  From the above examples, it may be noted it that the limitations of First Law of thermodynamics are  First law of thermodynamics does not help to predict whether the system will or will not undergo a particular change.  No restriction has been imposed by the first law on the possibility of conversion of energy from one form into another.  The first law does not throw any light on what portion of heat may be converted into useful form of energy, i.e. work.

C.O.P. of refrigerator and C.O.P. of heat pump [DEC 2007, MAY 2011] V O G C E ENERGY RESERVOIRS, SOURCE & SINK • A thermal reservoir is defined as a large body of infinite heat capacity, which is capable of absorbing or rejecting an unlimited quantity of heat without suffering appreciable changes in its thermodynamic coordinates. • The changes that do take place in the large body as heat enters or leaves are so very slow and so very minute that all processes within it are quasi-static. • The thermal reservoir FROM which heat Q1 is transferred to the system operating in a heat engine cycle is called the source or High temperature reservoir (HTR) • The thermal energy reservoir TO which heat Q2 is rejected from the system during a cycle is the sink or Low temperature reservoir (LTR). HEAT ENGINE AND EFFICIENCY • Heat Engine is a device used to convert heat energy into useful work when operating in a cyclic process. • It is a cyclically operating system in which only heat and work cross the boundary of the system. • Consider a system shown in Figure 1 which represents a steam power plant. Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 47

Vishwatmak Om Gurudev College Of Engineering Thermodynamics Steam is generated in the boiler at high pressure and supplied to the steam turbine. • The steam turbine develops the work using part of the energy in the steam and the steam coming out of the turbine is condensed in the condenser and fed back to the boiler, with the help of a pump to complete the cycle. • The boiler, turbine, condenser or pump individually, do not constitute a heat engine, as only a part of the cycle takes place in each of these components. • All the components are necessary to complete the cycle. • Diagrammatically Heat Engine is represented as V O G C E • Referring to Figure 1, the net heat entering into the system is (Q1 – Q2) and it must be equal to the sum of the turbine and pump work, as per first law of thermodynamics � ������������������������ = � ������������������������ ∴ ������������������������ − ������������������������ = ������������������������ − ������������������������ = ������������������������������������������������ = ������������ Prof.S Venkatesh Rao 48

This model will be adopted in further discussion. • The efficiency of heat pump is defined as per the objective in mind. • The efficiency term is replaced by coefficient of performance (C.O.P.) for Reversed Heat Engine just to avoid confusion between heat engine and heat pump. • Sometimes a term Energy performance ratio is also used.
