Heat Engines
A gasoline engine is a form of a heat engine, e.g. a 4-stroke
engine
INTAKE stroke:
the piston descends from the top to the bottom of the
cylinder, reducing the pressure inside. A mixture of fuel and
air, is forced by atmospheric pressure into the cylinder
through the intake port. The intake valve then close.
COMPRESSION stroke:
with both intake and exhaust valves closed, the piston
returns to the top of the cylinder compressing the fuel-air
mixture.
POWER stroke:
the compressed air–fuel mixture in a gasoline engine is
ignited by a spark plug. The compressed fuel-air mixture
expand and move the piston back
EXHAUST stroke:
during the exhaust stroke, the piston once again returns to
top while the exhaust valve is open and expel the spent fuel-
air mixture out through the exhaust valve(s).
Efficiency
• Efficiency is the ratio of the
net work done by the
engine to the amount of
heat that must be supplied
to accomplish this work.

Carnot Engine
• The efficiency of a typical automobile engine is less
than 30%.
– This seems to be wasting a lot of energy.
– What is the best efficiency we could achieve?
– What factors determine efficiency?
• The cycle devised by Carnot that an ideal engine
would have to follow is called a Carnot cycle.
• An (ideal, not real) engine following this cycle is
called a Carnot engine.
• If the process is adiabatic, no heat flows into or out of the gas
• In an isothermal process, the temperature does not change.
– The internal energy must be constant.
– The change in internal energy, U, is zero.
– If an amount of heat Q is added to the gas, an equal amount of work W will be done
by the gas on its surroundings, from U = Q - W.
• In an isobaric process, the pressure of the gas remains constant.
– The internal energy increases as the gas is heated, and so does the temperature.
– The gas also expands, removing some of the internal energy.
• Experiments determined that the pressure, volume, and absolute
temperature of an ideal gas are related by the equation of state:
PV = NkT where N is the number of molecules
and k is Boltzmann’s constant.
Different Thermal Process
1. Heat flows into cylinder at temperature TH. The
fluid expands isothermally and does work on
the piston.
2. The fluid continues to expand, adiabatically.
3. Work is done by the piston on the fluid, which
undergoes an isothermal compression.
4. The fluid returns to its initial condition by an
adiabatic compression.
Carnot Efficiency
• The efficiency of Carnot’s ideal engine is called the Carnot
efficiency and is given by:
• This is the maximum efficiency possible for any engine
taking in heat from a reservoir at absolute temperature TH
and releasing heat to a reservoir at temperature TC.
– The temperature must be measured in absolute degrees.
• Even Carnot’s ideal engine is less than 100% efficient.

Entropy
• entropy is an expression of disorder or randomness.
– the higher the level of disorder, the higher the entropy is.
– e.g. When an objected is broken into small pieces, entropy
increases.
– 𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑦 = 𝑘𝐵ln(Ω) , where Ωis number of microstates
– 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑦 =
∆𝑄
𝑇
, ∆𝑄 is the change of the system heat
and T is the absolute temperature of the system.
– When a system absorb heat, ∆𝑄is positive, i.e. entropy
increase. Otherwise, the entropy decrease.
Heat Pumps, and Entropy
• If a heat engine is run in reverse,
then work W is done on the engine
as heat QC is removed from the
lower-temperature reservoir and a
greater quantity of heat QH is
released to the higher-
temperature reservoir.
• A device that moves heat from a
cooler reservoir to a warmer
reservoir by means of work
supplied from some external
source is called a heat pump.
W  QC  QH
Refrigerators
and Heat Pumps
• A refrigerator is also a form of a heat
pump.
• It also moves heat from a cooler
reservoir to a warmer reservoir by
means of work supplied from some
external source.
• It keeps food cold by pumping heat out
of the cooler interior of the refrigerator
into the warmer room.
• An electric motor or gas-powered
engine does the necessary work.
