BASIC CONCEPTS AND FIRST LAW 4.1. INTRODUCTION TO THERMODYNAMICS The term thermodynamics derived from Greek words. Therme means heat and dynamis means power. Thermodynamics can be defined as the study of relationship between work, heat and energy. The flow of energy is of a great importance to engineers involved in the design of equipment in power generation and process industries. Thermodynamics provides an understanding the nature and degree of energy transformations so that they-can be understood and suitably utilized. Today, the conversion of heat energy into power plays an important role in power generation, refrigeration, turbines, compressors, heat pumps, automobiles, jet propulsion systems, biomedical applications, etc. One of the important fundamental laws of nature is the energy conservation principle, It states that the energy can change from one form to another form without losses during energy interaction, It means, the energy cannot be created or destroyed. So, the first law of thermodynamics is simply an expression of the conservation of energy. It states that energy is a thermodynamic property. But, the second law of thermodynamics shows that the actual processes occur in the direction of decreasing quality of energy. Therefore, it states that the energy has both quantity as well as quality. For example, a cup of hot water left on a table eventually cools, but a cup of cold water in the same room never gets hot by itself. The high-temperature energy of the hot water is degraded once it is transferred to the surrounding air. Thermodynamics is a field of science which deals the: (a) energies possessed by gases and vapours, (b) interaction of a system and its surroundings & ical work, and od chanical > (©) conversion of energies in terms of heat a (@) relationship with properties of the system- Gases od trig But, thermal engineering deals the applications of ne en 4 and improving theiy . lucing devices, relative to the work absorbing and prodi performance. 1.2.

The following are the thermodynamic properties. 1. Mass (rm) and Weight (W) Mass (m) of a body is the measure of the amount of material present in the same body. In S.I. unit, it is represented by kg. Weight (W) of a body is the force exerted by the body when its mass ig accelerated in a gravitational field. In S.1. unit, it is represented by N. Weight, W=m xg where m is the mass of the body, and g is the local gravitational acceleration, The mass of a body remains the same regardless of its location in the universe. However, its weight changes with a change in gravitational acceleration. For example, on earth an object has a certain mass and a certain weight. When the same object is Placed in outer space away from the earth's gravitational field, its mass is same but it is now in a “weightless”. 2.

Its value taken at mean Se, | at Gauge pressure (p,): It is the pressure recorded by the pressure gauge. All pressure gauges read ‘zero’ pressure at atmospheric level. Hence, they actually measure the difference of fluid pressure and atmospheric pressure. The gauge pressures are positive if they are above the atmospheric pressure and negative if they are below atmospheric pressure. Vacuum Pressure (pyac): The pressure below atmospheric pressure is called as vacuum pressure. It is also called as negative pressure. A perfect vacuum would correspond to absolute zero pressure. The pressure gauge which is used to measure the vacuum pressure is called vacuum gauge. Absolute Pressure (pass): ‘The pressure measured from absolute zero pressure is called as absolute pressure.

MICROSCOPIC AND MACROSCOPIC APPROACHES Thermodynamically, the behaviour of any matter can be studied in two different points of view: 1. Microscopic approach or statistical thermodynamics 2. Macroscopic approach or classical thermodynamics 4.3.1. Microscopic Approach or Statistical Thermodynamics Any substance or matter consists of a large number of particles called molecules, The properties of the substance naturally depend on the behaviour of these molecules, From microscopic point of view, a matter consists of myriads of molecules. In this approach, the properties of matter such as pressure, velocity, position and energy of the individual molecule at a given instant or at a particular time are studied. This approach is known as statistical thermodynamics, For applications involving laset, plasma, high-speed gas flow, chemical kinetics, very low temperature (cryogenic) and others, the methods of statistical thermodynamics are essential, For example, to investigate the statistical machinery, all results of classical thermodynamics are essential plus a large number of other results which enable the macroscopic parameters of the system to be calculated from the knowledge of its microscopic constituents. This analysis is extremely powerful, The only drawback is more complexity in analyzing the parameters at molecular level, classical thermodynamics, For example, consider a system containing mixture of air tad petes cylinder of I.C. engine. The properties such as pressure, temperature and measured for each position of the piston in the cylinder. system i.e., mixture of air and petrol vapour can be mentioned properties. These properties are called a as macrosce properties describe the system condition in macroscopic poi cyl "seis A in lumes are conditions of the tee The different coordinates are used to describe the various systems in a macroscopic approach.

System fs A thermodynamic system is defined as a definite space or area on which the study of energy transfer and energy conversions is made. A system could be the wate, within one side of a heat exchanger, the fluid inside a length of pipe or the entire lubricating oil system for a diesel engine. Boundary System ‘Surroundings Figure 1.2 System and surroundings 1.4.2.

There is no specific rule for selecting the control volume but a proper choice will make the analysis easier. . It usually encloses a device which involves the mass flow such as a compressor, turbine or nozzle, The flow through these devices is best studied by selecting the region within the device as the control volume. Both and ‘can cross the boundary of a control volume called control surface. The control volume may be fixed in size and shape. In addition to mass transfer, both work sransfer are involved. Mass => out Mass in, Figure 1.7 Control volume 4.6. INTENSIVE AND EXTENSIVE PROPERTIES OFA SYSTEM atl Property is defined as any measurable or observable characteristics of the ibrium state. Any characteristic of a substance when the system remains in equili system is called property. Some familiar properties are pressure (p), temperature (7), volume (V), and mass (m). Example: pressure (p), temperature (7), volume (V), mass (m), etc. The properties are classified into the following two types: (a) Intensive or Intrinsic property, and (b) Extensive or Extrinsic property. (a) Intensive properties: Intensive properties are independent of the mass of the system. Tf a part of the system is considered, these properties remain same. Example: Pressure, temperature, specific volume, density etc. (b) Extensive properties: Extensive properties are dependent upon the mass of the system. If a part of the system is considered, these properties have lesser value. Example: Mass, volume, total energy, weight, kinetic energy, etc An easy way to determine whethera property is intensiv J € of extensive is to divide the system into two equal rit i i. SO i qual parts with an-imaginary partition as shown in Figure 1.8 Basic Concepts and First Law Each part will have the same value of intensive properties as the original system but half of the value of the extensive properties, Vs=Va+Ve extensive Ms=M,+Mg extensive Ts#T,+Tz intensive System Figure 1.8 Intensive and Extensive properties 1.7. STATE OF A SYSTEM State is the condition of the system at any particular moment. The state is identified by the properties of the system such as pressure, volume, temperature etc. At a given state, all properties of the system have fixed values. Even if the value of one property changes, the state will change to a different state called a change of state. 1.8. PATH The succession of states crossed through the control volume during the change of state in the thermodynamic system is called path. 1.9. THERMODYNAMIC PROCESS Process is the change of state undergone by a system from one equilibrium state to another equilibrium state. It consists of sufficient information about the thermodynamic properties at successive state: points. The path of the succession of states through which the system passes is called the thermodynamic process. An example of a thermodynamic process is, increasing the temperature of a fluid while maintaining a constant pressure. Another exam Pl © ‘confined gas while maintaining a constant tempera!

This process is called as quas;. attains the ori; state static process. a ‘A quasi-state process follows a successive thermodynamic equilibrium process, thus, it is reversible process. It is very slow process. 1.9.2. Reversible and Irreversible Processes . A system passes through an infinite number of continuous ae states, and it traces the same path when this process is reversed. This process is known as reversible process. When a fluid undergoes reversible process, both fluid and its surroundings can always be restored to their original state. In reality, there are no truly reversible processes, however, for analysis purposes, one uses the reversible process to make the analysis simpler and to determine the maximum theoretical efficiencies. Example: Constant volume, constant pressure, isothermal, adiabatic process, isentropic process, etc. A system passes through an infinite number of continuous non-equilibrium states, and it does not trace the same path when the process is reversed. This process is known as irreversible process. E.g., an automobile engine does not give back the fuel taken to drive up a hill as it coasts back down the hill. Example: Free expansion, throttling, and steady flow process. There are many factors that make a process irreversible. Four of the most common causes of irreversibility are friction, unrestrained expansion of a fluid, heat transfer through a finite temperature difference and mixing of two different ss 1.40, THERMODYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM es undergo any chan, heres meoo “a ‘State on its own accord. {A system is sai to bein thermodynamic equilibrium, "2 piensa following three conditions of equilibrium: (a) Mechanical equilibrium: A system is said to be in mechanical equilibrium, forces acting on it. when there are no unbalanceg (&) Thermal equilibrium: A system is said to be in thermal Seino, when there is no temperature difference throughout the system. (c) Chemical equilibrium: a ‘A system is said to be in chemical equilibrium, when there is no chemica] reaction throughout the system. 4.41, THERMODYNAMIC CYCLE A series of state changes such that the final state is identical with the initial state is known as cycle. If a thermodynamic system undergoes a series of processes and returns to its initial position, then the process is called cyclic process. ‘There are two types of cyclic processes. (a)Closed cycle | (b)Open cycle. 1.11.1. Closed Cycle In a closed system, the working substance is recirculated again and again within the system itself without taking any mass transfer. It is shown in Figure 1.10. 4.11.2. Open Cycle In an open cycle, the working substance is exhausted to atmosphere after completing the process. So, here both mass and energy transfers take place. It § shown in Figure 1.11. 4.12.1. Difference between Path and Point Functions Engineering. Thermodynamic, vo Figure 1.12 p-V diagram S.No. Path function iF Point function iz The magnitudes depend on the path followed during a process as well as the end states. They depend on the state only and not on how a system reaches that state: Ex. Work (W) and heat (Q). All properties are point function excluding both work and heat. Ex, pressure, volume and temperature. The total amount of both work and heat is the sum or cyclic integral of the path. The total amount of any point function property is the algebraic sum of the individual property of all processes in a cycle. It considers the direction of processes. It does not consider the direction of processes. The cyclic integral of a path function is non-zero. The cyclic integral of a point function is zero. 1.13. CONCEPT OF CONTINUUM A continuous homogenous medium is called as continuum. Continuum is based on the macroscopic approach. The continuum idealization allows us to treat the properties as point functions and assumes the Properties y; with no jump discontinuities.

CONCEPT OF TEMPERATURE AND THERMAL EQUILIBRIUM 1.14.1. Temperature Temperature is the measure of molecular velocity of fluid particles. The greater jg the movement of molecules, the higher will be the temperature. There is no exact definition for temperature. It is a property which is used to determine the degree of hotness or coldness or the level of heat intensity of a body. Based on physiological sensations only, the level of temperature is expressed qualitatively in words such as freezing cold, cold, warm, hot and red-hot. Several properties change with temperature such as viscosity, surface tension, density, etc., of materials change with temperature in a repeatable and predictable way and it forms the basis for accurate temperature measurement. Temperature is commonly measured by using a mercury-in glass thermometer. It can also be measured by using several other temperature dependent Properties. 1.14.2.

The corresponding values on the Fahrenheit scale are 32 ang 212°F. These are referred’ as two-point scales since the temperature values arg assigned at two different points. Thermodynamic temperature scale: In thermodynamics, i is necessary to have a temperature scale which is independent of the properties of any substance. Such.a temperature scale is calleq thermodynamic temperature scale. The absolute temperature scale in SI system is the Kelvin scale. The temperature unit on this scale is Kelvin which is designated by x (not °K). The lowest temperature on the Kelvin scale is absolute zero or 0 K. Absolute temperature scale: It is necessary to define an absolute temperature scale having only positive Values. Absolute zero temperature is the zero below which the temperature of any Substance cannot fall. It is taken as the value of -273.15°C (Approximately, 273°C), The temperature measured ftom the absolute zero temperature is called as absolute temperature. 1.14.4. Relationship between Temperature Scales The relationship between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales is Tepresented by the following equations: °F = 32.0 + (9/5) °C °C = CF - 32.0) (5/9) Celsius seale is converted into Kelvin scale as follows, T=1+273K Basic Concepts and First Law where T- Temperature on Kelvin scale. 1 = Temperature on Celsius scale.

Celsious scale Kelvin scale 100°C 373K oC 273K 273°C oK Figure 1.15 Temperature relationship The magnitudes of each division of 1 K and 1°C are identical. Therefore, the temperature interval on both scales is the same when the temperature differences AT are considered. Raising the temperature of a substance by 10°C is the same as raising it by 10 K. That is, AT (K) = ATCO) ‘Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP): The standard atmospheric conditions are: Standard temperature = 15°C Standard pressure = 760 mm of Hg = 101.325 kNim? Normal Temperature and pressure (NTP): The condition of temperature at 0°C and 760 mm of Hg is called as normal temperature and pressure. 1.14.5.

ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS Zeroth law of thermodynamics states, “When two bodies are in thermal equilibrium with a third body separately, they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other”. As shown in Figure 1.16, let, a system X be in thermal equilibrium with another system Y. Also, let, another system Z is thermal equilibrium with the system Y. Then from Zeroth law of thermodynamics, the system X is in thermal equilibrium with the system Z. Hence, X and Z are at same temperatures.

Their sum constitutes the total energy (E) of a system. In a thermodynamic analysis, various forms of energy that make up the total energy of a system are grouped into: At a) Macroscopic forms of energies: b) Microscopic forms of energies ‘The macroscopic forms of energy are those a system possesses as a whole with respect to some outside reference frame such as kinetic and potential energies.

The portion of the intemal energy of a system associated with the kine energies of molecules is called sensible energy. The internal enerBy is also associatey with various binding forces between the molecules ofa substance. The gnternal energy associated with the phase of a system is called /atent energy. The internal energy associated with the atomic bonds in a molecule is called chemical energy. The tremendous amount of energy associated with the strong bonds within the nucleus of the atom itself is called nuclear energy. None of these forms of energy can be measured or evaluated directly but techniques have been developed to evaluate the change in the total of all these microscopic forms of energy. These microscopic forms of energy are collectively called internal energy. ‘The magnetic, electric, and surface tension effects are only significant in some specialized cases and are usually ignored. Therefore, the total energy of a system consists of kinetic, potential, and internal energies and is expressed by E=KE.+P.E.+LE. = mc? +mge+u (1.3) 1.17. HEAT TRANSFER (Q) Heat is defined as the energy crossing the boundary of a system due to the temperature difference between system and surroundings. It is usual ly represented by Q and expressed in Joule or kJ. Heat exists only due to the heat transfer. For the transfer of heat, there should be temperature difference between two systems. Basic Concepts and First Law The amount of heat transferred depends upon the path and not simply on the initial and final conditions of the system. Also, it is important to distinguish between heat added to a system from its surroundings and heat removed from a system to its surroundings. A positive value of heat indicates that the heat is added to the system by its surroundings called heat addition. A negative value of heat indicates the transfer of heat out of a system to its surroundings called heat rejection. The best way to quantify the definition of heat is to consider the relationship between the amount of heat added to or removed from a system and the change in the temperature of the system. When a substance is heated, its temperature increases and when it is cooled, its temperature decreases. The heat added to or removed from a substance to produce a change in its temperature is called sensible heat. The units of heat are defined in terms of the change in temperature as it produces. Let m be the mass of the substance heated from temperature T; to temperature 7>, then, the heat transfer is given by Q=m.C.(Tp-T)=mCaT (1A) The unit of heat transfer is J (Joule) or KI where, ‘C’ be the specific heat of the substance. Sign Convention: If is positive, the heat is supplied or transferred to a system. If Q is negative, the heat is rejected or transferred from a system. ‘Surroundings Surroundings Q Q | t T System System Figure 1.17 Sign convention for heat transfer 4.18.

In other words, it can be stated that the work output from any system is taken as positive work. Example: Heat engine, turbines, etc, the system is taken as negative work.

Paddle wheel work The rotating wheel called paddle wheel is connected at one end of the connecting member and the other end is connected with the rotating drum which has the rope with a weight as shown in Figure 1.21. The paddle is kept inside the fluid cylinder. When the weight is lowered from its initial position, the paddle wheel rotates by stirring the fluid in the eylinder. Since this cylinder rigid with constant volume, there is no work on or by the fluid, So, the work done on the fluid 2 learn e (0.10) But the weight ‘W” is lowered through a distance ‘s?, Therefore, the paddle wheel work done on the system can be expressed by Waste =W ae 0.1) Basic Concepts and First Law ZZ Weight Figure 1.21 Paddle wheel work Also, the paddle wheel is connected with the shaft which is rotating at a speed of Nwith torque, 7.

Electrical polarization work b It is the work performed in a system where the generalized force is the electric field strength and the generalized displacement is the polarization of the medium (the sum of the electric dipole rotation moments of the molecules). In any thermal equipments, usually the above mentioned mechanical work transfer will occur due to concemed moving parts. When these equipments are operated or actuated mainly by electric supply. Due to this, electrical work, magnetic work and polarization work are produced by magnetic field created between rotor and stator of electric motor. ing.

The work can be converted fully into heat energy but the heat energy cannot be converted fully into mechanical work. It violates the foresaid statements. A machine which violates the first law of thermodynamics is known as perpetual Motion machine (PMM-1) of the first kind which is impossible. PMM-1 is a machine which delivers work continuously without any input. Thus, the machine violates first law of thermodynamics. 1.23.
