of Thermodynamics
We are all familiar with the First Law of Thermodynamics in this form:
U = Q + W
U: change of internal energy of the system
Q: heat received by the system
W: work done on the system
Due to the scope of most basic thermodynamics classes, the system that
we describe is almost exclusively ideal gasses. However, the first law can be
used in a much more general context. In fluid mechanics, the first law usually
deals with the rate of flow in a time unit, hence:
U/t = Q/t + W/t
Apply this for a fluid system with control volume

Work transferred across the control surface by a moving shaft W
In rotary devices such as turbines, fans, and propellers, a rotating shaft
transfers work across that portion of the control surface that slices
through the shaft.
Work transferred across the control surface when the force is
associated with the fluid pressure (a normal stress) acts over a
distance. Since
normal stress = pin AinVin, and therefore:
Fnormal stress = pin Ain, we get W
net=W
shaft + W
normal stress
W
is therefore:
And finally, e, the total energy per unit mass for each particle in the system,
is related to the internal energy per unit mass u , the kinetic energy per
unit mass V2/2, and the potential energy per unit mass, gz, by equation:
e=u +

We have arrived at the energy equation for a control volume from the first
law of thermodynamics. This equation has tremendous application, even
though it derived from the simple U = Q + W at the beginning.
