Mean temperature of the mixture = (T1 + T2) / 2 Thus change in entropy is given by: ∆S = S2 – S1) = mc (T1 + T2)/2∫ T1 (dT…
Thermodynamics is a science and, an important engineering tool used to describe processes that involve changes in temperature, transformation of energy, and the relationships between heat and work. Thermodynamics where…
In general, Thermodynamics involves the study of various systems. A system is a collection of objects, and there are a lot of hurdles in the way it is defined. However,…
A thermodynamic state is a set of values of properties of a thermodynamic system that must be specified to reproduce the system. The individual parameters are known as state variables,…
Thermodynamic process The operation by which a system changes form one state to another is called a process. Whenever a system changes from one state to another it is accompanied…
There are two main types of thermodynamic processes: reversible process and the irreversible process. Irreversible Process: The process is said to be an irreversible process if it cannot return the…
The state of a system in which properties have definite, unchanged values as long as external conditions are unchanged is called an equilibrium state. Thermodynamic Equilibrium takes place when the…
Intensive Property: An intensive property is a physical property of a system that does not depend on the system size or the amount of material in the system. I.e. An…
Energy is the capacity to do work. Any form of energy can be transformed into another form. Energy has been expressed in several different units such as ergs and calories.…
Various forms of Energy are: Heat Energy A heat is defined as a transfer (flow) of thermal energy across certain boundary (for example, from a hot body to cold via…
