55 TOPIC 4: FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS CONCEPT OF THE FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS • The First Law is usually referred to as the Law of Conservation of Energy, i.e., Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but rather transformed from one state to another. • In thermodynamics approach, the energy concept is synthesized from the prior assumption of heat and work. • When system undergoes a thermodynamics cycle, then THE NET HEAT SUPPLIED TO THE SYSTEM IS EQUAL TO THE NET WORK DONE TO THE SURROUNDINGS. • Q = W FORMS OF ENERGY: • In thermodynamics, there are 2 forms of energy group: 1. Macroscopic energy • Related to motion and influence some external effect: gravity, magnetism, surface tension. • Example: kinetic energy, potential energy. 2. Microscopic energy • Related to molecular structure of the system and the degree of the molecular activity. • Example: internal energy


56 INTERNAL ENERGY • Internal energy is the sum of all the energies a fluid possesses and stores within itself. If • u2 > u1 : internal energy increased (+ve) • u2 < u1 : internal energy decreased (-ve) ENERGY TRANSFER BY HEAT • Heat is the form of energy that is transferred between two systems (or a system and its surroundings) by virtue of a temperature difference. • Heat was considered to be a fluid that can spontaneously flow from a hot body to a cold body. • Heat is transferred by three mechanisms: o Conduction o Convection o Radiation • If heat energy flows into the system from the surroundings it is said to be positive. • If heat energy flows from the system to the surroundings it is said to be negative.


57 ENERGY TRANSFER BY WORK • Work transfer is defined as a product of the force and the distance moved in the direction of the force. • Mechanical forms of work: o Shaft work o Spring work o Work done on elastic solid bars. o Work associated with the stretching of a liquid film. o Work done to raise or to accelerate a body. • If work energy is transferred from the system to the surroundings, it is donated as positive. • If work energy is transferred from the surroundings to the system, it is donated as negative. ENERGY BALANCE • From the energy balance equation − = ∆ − = ∆ + ∆ + ∆ • Noting that a closed system does not involve kinetic and potential energy, the energy balance simplifies to − = ∆ • For a closed system undergoing a cycle, ∆ = Thus =

63 OPEN SYSTEM/ FLOW PROCESS • An open system, or a control volume, involves mass flow. • Flow through these devices is best studied by selecting properly the region within the device as the control volume. • Both mass and energy can cross the boundary of a control volume. Open system in turbine • This process may be sub-divided into an unsteady flow process and steady flow process. • Criteria for steady flow process: o The mass of fluid flowing past any section in the system must be constant with respect to time. o The properties of the fluid at any particular section in the system must be constant with respect to time. o All transfer of work energy and heat which takes place must be done at a uniform rate.


64 APPLICATION OF OPEN SYSTEM Turbine: • A turbine is a device which uses a pressure drop to produce work energy which is used to drive an external load. Boiler: • In a boiler operating under steady conditions, water is pumped into the boiler along the feed line at the same rate as which steam leaves the boiler along the steam main, and heat energy is supplied from the furnace at a steady rate. Nozzle: • A nozzle utilises a pressure drop to produce an increase in the kinetic energy of the fluid.


65 Condenser: • In principle, a condenser is a boiler reverse. • In a boiler, heat energy is supplied to convert the liquid into vapour whereas in a condenser heat energy is removed to condense the vapour into a liquid. Throttle: • A throttling process is one in which the fluid is made to flow through a restriction, e.g., a partially opened valve or orifice, causing a considerable drop in the pressure of the fluid. Pump: • The action of a pump is the reverse of that of a turbine, i.e., it uses external work energy to produce a pressure rise.

The outlet cross-sectional area of the nozzle if the specific volume is 0.46 m3 /kg. B. Steam enters a turbine with a velocity of 20 m/s and specific enthalpy 3990 kJ/kg. The steam leaves the turbine with a velocity of 35 m/s and specific enthalpy 1030 kJ/kg. The heat loss to the surroundings as the steam passes through the turbine is 20 kJ/kg. The steam flow rate is 42400 kg/h. Calculate the power generated by turbine in kW. C. Water flowed through a boiler with the velocity of 6 m/s, pressure of 0.98 bar and specific volume of 0.1 m3 /kg. Superheated steam produced has velocity of 50 m/s and pressure of 7 bar with specific volume of 0.2 m3 /kg. The specific internal energy in the outlet section is 100 kJ/kg greater than the inlet. If the heat transfer to the boiler is 40 kW, calculate the mass flow rate produced in kg/h.


68 D. In steady flow system, a fluid flows at the rate of 120 kg/min. It enters at pressure of 6 bar, velocity of 200 m/s, internal energy of 2250 kJ/kg and specific volume of 0.56 m3/kg. The fluid leaves the system at the pressure of 1.5 bar, velocity of 160 m/s, internal energy of 1500 kJ/kg and specific volume of 1.36 m3/kg. During its passage through the system, the fluid has a heat loss of 25 kJ/kg to the surroundings. Determine the power system in kilowatts, starting whether it is generated or provided to the system. Neglect the changes of any potential energy. E. Fluid with a specific enthalpy of 3200 kJ/kg enters a horizontal nozzle with negligible velocity at the rate of 15 kg/s. At the outlet, the specific enthalpy and specific volume of the fluid are 2050 kJ/kg and 2.05 m3 /kg respectively. Assuming an adiabatic flow process, determine the required outlet area of the nozzle.


69 TOPIC 5: SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS • The first law of thermodynamics is concerned with the quantity of energy and transformation of energy from one form to another, ∑Q = ∑W. • A second Law of Thermodynamics is about: o For any process, a natural flow will always be from higher energy value to lower energy value. Heat transfer occurs spontaneously from a high temperature body to a low temperature body. Flow of heat is not possible from a cold body to a hot body without external work. Some external inputs or energy must be expanded to reverse the process. o For every real-world process, there will always be losses. Although the net heat supplied in a cycle is equal to the net work done, the gross heat supplied must be greater than the work done; some heat must always be rejected by the system, Wnet = QH - QL

If the heat pump under these conditions has a COP of 2.5, determine (i) The power consumed by the heat pump (ii) The rate at which heat is absorbed from the cold outdoor air. QL = magnitude of heat absorbed from cold outdoor air at temperature TL QH = magnitude of heat supplied into the warmer space at temperature TH Wnet, in = net work input to the heat pump.


74 CARNOT HEAT ENGINE CARNOT REVERSED HEAT ENGINE • Heat engine that operates on the reversible Carnot cycle is called Carnot heat engine. • A refrigerator or a heat pump that operates on the reversed Carnot cycle is called a Carnot refrigerator or a Carnot heat pump. Tutorial 3 A. A Carnot heat engine receives 500 kJ of heat per cycle from a high-temperature source at 652°C and rejects heat to a low-temperature sink at 30°C.
