Introduction
Thermodynamics can be defined as the since of energy and entropy
An alternate definition: is the since that deals with heat and work and those
properties of substances that bear a relation to heat and work
The word thermodynamics stems from the Greek words therme (heat) and
dynamics (force).
Thermodynamics is a science that is based in experimental findings
These findings have been formalized into certain laws

Application Areas of Thermal-Fluid
Sciences
Macroscopic and Microscopic Views of
Thermodynamics
As you know, any substance consists of a large number
of molecules. The properties of the substance depend on
the behavior of these molecules.
Consider a gas in a container. The pressure of the gas is a
result of the momentum transfer as the molecules hit the
walls of the container.
However, we do need to know the force exerted by the
molecule on an infinitesimal area on the wall in order to
find the pressure (microscopic approach)
Instead, it will be sufficient to attach a pressure gauge to
the wall (finite area) and read the average pressure
exerted by a large number of molecules on that finite area
(macroscopic approach).


That is, the macroscopic approach to
thermodynamics is concerned with the
average or overall behavior. This
approach is called sometimes classical
thermodynamics.
On the other hand, the microscopic
approach to thermodynamics, known as
statistical thermodynamics, is concerned
directly with the structure of matter. It is
objective is to find (by statistical means)
the average behavior of the particles
making up a system. This approach is
involved and is not used any more in the
remaining of this course.
The macroscopic approach provides a
direct and easy solution to engineering
problems.


Introduction
Thermodynamics is both a branch of physics and an engineering science.
The scientist is normally interested in gaining a fundamental
understanding of the physical and chemical behavior of fixed quantities of
matter and then, uses the principles of thermodynamics to relate the
properties of matter.
Engineers are generally interested in studying systems and how they
interact with their surroundings. To facilitate this, engineers extend the
subject of thermodynamics to the study of systems through which matter
flows.
Thermodynamic systems
An important step in any engineering analysis
is to describe precisely what is being studied.
In mechanics, if the motion of a body is to be
determined (Figure 1), normally the first step
is to define a free body and identify all the
forces exerted on it by other bodies (Figure 2).
Newtons second law of motion is then
applied.
In thermodynamics, the term system is used to
identify the subject of the analysis (e.g. coffee
in the cup).
Once the system is defined and the relevant
interactions with other systems are identified,
one or more physical laws or relations are
applied.
The system is whatever we want to study. It may be as simple as a free
body or as complex as an entire chemical refinery. We may want to study
a quantity of matter contained within a closed, rigid-walled tank or we
may want to consider something such as a gas pipeline through which gas
flows.
Everything external to the system is considered to be part of the systems
surroundings.
The system is distinguished from its
surroundings by a specified boundary
which may be at rest or in motion.
It is essential for the boundary
to be determined carefully before
proceeding with any thermodynamic analysis.

Two basic kinds of systems are distinguished in thermodynamics study.
These are referred to as closed systems and control volumes.
Closed systems (control mass)
A closed system refers to a fixed quantity of matter.
A closed system is used when a particular quantity
of matter is under study.
A closed system always contains the same matter.
There can be no transfer of mass across its boundary.
What do we call the system if even energy is not allowed
to cross the boundary?
The figure shows a gas in a piston-cylinder assembly.
Let us consider the gas to be a closed system.
The boundary lies just inside the piston and cylinder
walls, as shown by the dashed lines on the figure.
If the cylinder were placed over a flame, the gas would
expand, raising the piston.
The portion of the boundary between the gas and the
piston moves with the piston.
No mass would cross this or any other part of the
boundary.
Open system (control volume)
An open system (control volume) is a properly selected region in space.
It encloses a device that involves mass flow such as nozzle, compressor,
turbine.
Flow through such devices is best studied by selecting the region within
the device as the control volume .
Both mass and energy can cross the boundary of the control volume.
There are no concrete rules for the selection of the control volume but
proper choice makes the analysis much easier .
The boundary of the control volume is called boundary surface
The boundary surface can be real or imaginary
A control volume can be fixed in shape and size or it may involve a
moving boundary.

Properties of a System
To describe a system and predict its
behavior requires knowledge of its
properties and how those properties are
related.
Properties are macroscopic characteristics of
a system.
Any characteristic of a system is called a
property. Some familiar properties are
pressure P, temperature T, volume V, and
mass m.
Properties describe the state of a system only
when the system is in an equilibrium state.
Not all properties are independent. Density
is a dependent property on pressure and
temperature.

Density as a property
Density is mass per unit volume;
= mass/volume (kg/m3)

Specific gravity: the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of some
standard substance at specified temperature (usually water at 4
o
C)

Specific volume is volume per unit mass.
v = Volume/mass, (m3/kg)
v = 1/

Extensive and Intensive Properties
Intensive properties are those that are
independent of the size of system, such as
temperature, pressure, and density.
Extensive properties are dependent on the size
(or extent) of the system. Mass m, volume V,
and total energy E are some examples of
extensive properties.
Criteria to differentiate extensive and
intensive properties is illustrated in the Figure.
Extensive properties per unite mass are called
specific properties (i.e. specific volume).

State
A state is defined as a condition of a substance that can
be described by certain observable macroscopic
properties. (T, P, , v etc.)
In above figure, the system does not undergo any
change. All properties can be measured throughout the
system. Hence the condition of the system is completely
described. This condition is called state 1.
Now remove some weights. If the value of even one
property changes, then the state will change to different
one (state 2).
The word State refers to the condition of a system as it is
described by its properties.

Equilibrium
Thermodynamics deals with equilibrium states.

The word equilibrium implies a state of
balance.

Equilibrium state means that there are no
unbalanced potentials (or driving forces)
within the system.

A system is said to be in thermodynamic
equilibrium if it maintains thermal,
mechanical, phase, and chemical equilibrium.

Thermal Equilibrium
Thermal equilibrium means that there is no temperature differential
through the system.

The State Postulate
We mentioned earlier that a state is described uniquely by measuring a
few of its properties. The remaining properties will assume certain
values. The question here is how much is this few?.
The answer depends on how simple or complex our system is.
If we have a system where the gravitational, electrical, magnetic,
motion and surface tension effects are absent, then this system is called
a simple compressible system.
According to what is called state postulate, the number of properties
required to completely specify the state of such system is two
independent, intensive properties.

The State Postulate
If, however, the gravitational effects are important in the simple
compressible system, then the elevation z needs to be specified in addition
to the two properties necessary to fix the state.
The state postulate requires that the two properties are independent of each
other.
Two properties are considered to be independent if one property is varied
while the other one is constant.
Temperature and specific volume are good examples.
You will see, however, in coming units that temperature and pressure are
not always independent of each other. They become dependent during
phase change processes.
Processes and Cycles
Any change from one equilibrium state to
another is called a process.
Process diagrams are very useful in
visualizing the processes.
The series of states through which a system
passes during a process is called a path
To describe a process completely initial and
final states as well as the path it follows, and
the interactions with the surrounding should be
specified
A process with identical end states is called a
cycle
Process diagrams plotted by employing
thermodynamic properties as coordinates are
very useful in visualizing the processes.


Isothermal process means a
process at constant T.





Isobaric process means a
process at constant pressure





Isochoric process means a
process at constant volume
Quasi-Equilibrium process
During a quasi-static or quasi-equilibrium
process, the system remains infinitesimally
close to an equilibrium state at all times.
A sufficiently slow process that allow the
system to adjust itself internally so that
properties in one part of the system do not
change any faster than those at other parts.
Compression is very slow and thus
equilibrium is attained at any intermediate
state. Therefore, the intermediate states can
be determined and process path can be
drawn.
It is an idealized process but many process
closely approximate it with negligible error.

Forms of Energy
In absence of magnetic, electric, and surface tension effects, the total energy of a
system consists of the kinetic, potential, and internal energies and is expressed as








The macroscopic form of energy are those a system possesses as a whole with
respect to some outside reference (i.e. kinetics and potential).
The microscopic forms of energy are those related to the molecular structure of the
system , independent of outside reference frames (i.e. internal).
The change in the total energy AE of a stationary system (closed system) is
identical to the change in its internal energy AU.

Temperature and the Zeroth Law of


Thermodynamics
The zeroth law of thermodynamics states
that: If two bodies are in thermal
equilibrium with the third body, they are
also in thermal equilibrium with each
other.
The equality of temperature is the only
requirement for thermal equilibrium.

Temperature scales
I n thermodynamics it is desirable to have a temperature scale
that is independent of the properties of any substance.
Note: it makes no difference to use K or C in formulas involving
temperature difference. However, you should use Absolute
temperature in formulas involving temperature only like the ideal
gas low.

The assumptions made while solving
an engineering problem must be

Problem Solving Technique (continued)
A result with more
significant digits than that of
given data falsely implies
more accuracy.
When solving problems,
we will assume the
given information to be
accurate to at least 3
significant digits.
Therefore, if the length
of a pipe is given to be
40 m, we will assume it
to be 40.0 m in order to
justify using 3
significant digits in the
final results.
