    Example 1 Nozzle Flow - Steam Steam at 1.5 bar and 150 deg C enters a nozzle at 10 m/s and exits at 1 bar. Assuming the flow is reversible and adiabatic‚ determine the exit temperature and velocity. If the exit nozzle area is 0.001 m2‚ evaluate the mass flow rate of the steam through the nozzle. P1 = 1.5 bar T1 = 90 deg C V1 = 10 m/s A2 = 0.001 m2 P2 =1 bar T2 = ? V2 = ? mdot = ? V2 = sqrt(V1*V1+2*(h1-h2)) mdot = rho*A2*V2 = A2*V2/v2 T2 382.60 m/s 0.22 kg/s 111.81 degC Superheated

    of Two Laws of Thermodynamics Energy is encountered in many forms‚ such as mechanical‚ chemical (food and fuel)‚ electrical‚ nuclear‚ heat‚ and radiant (light). Energy has the ability to bring about change or to do work. Thermodynamics is the study of energy. The field of thermodynamics studies the behavior of energy flow in natural systems. These studies have rendered two laws of thermodynamics. The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the law of conservation of energy. This law suggests

    Thermodynamics is the branch of science concerned with the nature of heat and its conversion to any form of energy. In thermodynamics‚ both the thermodynamic system and its environment are considered. A thermodynamic system‚ in general‚ is defined by its volume‚ pressure‚ temperature‚ and chemical make-up. In general‚ the environment will contain heat sources with unlimited heat capacity allowing it to give and receive heat without changing its temperature. Whenever the conditions change‚ the thermodynamic

    APPLICATION OF THERMODYNAMICS THERMODYNAMIC OF GASES (ADIABATIC CHANGE) In thermodynamic of gases‚ we can study about the changes to the internal energy of gas and factors affecting the internal energy. Thermodynamic also involves work done and heat supplied or lost by a gas. THERMODYNAMICS The study of temperature‚ heat‚ and related macroscopic properties comprises the branch of physics. Thermodynamics deals with processes which cause energy changes (internal energy) as a result

    ABSTRACT The paper postulates a thermodynamic theory of money and describes both quantitavely and qualitatively its mechanics that unify economic production and finance in a sustainability framework. The theory will examine various economic issues‚ such as‚ full employment‚ economic growth‚ economic development‚ economic justice‚ the role of financial institutions‚ technology transitions and sustainable natural resource use‚ and be contrasted with the dominant money theory. It is claimed that

    [BLANK_AUDIO]. Welcome back. So last time we talked about work transfer as a form of energy transfer across the system boundary. Now there are a few key points we need to remember. Work transfer is not a system property. Where transfer depends on the process path and there are many different types and forms of work transfer so last time we introduced expansion and compression work and that’s the work to raise or lower a piston. Now that type of work is very important
