Thermodynamic - Lecture - 2

 

Thermodynamic Process:

Process which contains transformation of heat into work or work into heat 




System: 
If thermodynamics  Process carried in any space is known as System

Types: 
Closed System, Open system and Isolated system

Surroundings: 
Every thing apart from the system

Boundary :
 Separation of System and Surrounding

Universe: 
Everything outside of Surroundings 







Types: 
Closed System, Open system and Isolated system

Closed System: 
can exchange only energy with its surroundings, not matter. 

Open system:
 can exchange both energy and matter with its surroundings.
 
Isolated system: 
cannot exchange either matter or energy with its surroundings.



Closed System, can exchange only energy with its surroundings, not matter (mass).



Open system can exchange both energy and matter (mass) with its surroundings. 






Isolated system: cannot exchange either matter or energy with its surroundings.

Thermodynamics - Lecture - 11 - Unit - 3 - Steam Properties and Problems

Problem: 1   A vessel of volume 0.04 m 3 contains a mixture of saturated water and steam at a temperature of 250°C The mass of the liquid present is 9 kg. Find the pressure, mass, specific volume, enthalpy, entropy and internal energy. Given data: V=0.04m 3 T= 250°C m 1 = 9 kg To find: p, m, v, h, S, and U   Solution: From Steam Tables corresponding to 250°C, v f =v 1 = 0.001251 m/kg V g = V s = 0.050037 m/kg p= 39.776 bar   Total volume occupied by the liquid, V 1 = m 1 v 1 = 9 x 0.001251 = 0.0113 m 3 Total volume of the vessel, V = Volume of liquid + Volume of steam V 1 +V s V s =0.0287 m 3   Mass of steam, m s = V s / V s   =0.0287 / 0.050037 =0.574 kg Mass of mixture of liquid and steam, m=m 1 +m s = 9+ 0.574 = 9.574 kg   Total specific volume of the mixture, v = V / m   = 0.04 /9.574 = 0.00418 m 3 /kg   We know that, v=v f +x V fg V fg = v g - v f 0.00418 = 0.001251 + x (0.05003...
