This document provides an introduction to a thermodynamics course. It defines thermodynamics as the study of heat and work transfer on a specified system. A system is any part of the universe being studied, separated from its surroundings by a real or imaginary boundary. The document outlines different types of systems (isolated, closed, open) and phases of matter (solid, liquid, gas). It also defines important thermodynamic concepts like state, equilibrium, properties, processes, the laws of thermodynamics, and heat transfer including latent heat and phase changes.

A branch of physics that studies the
effects of changes in temperature,
pressure, and volume on physical
systems at the macroscopic scale by
analyzing the collective motion of

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE
LAWS
The starting point for most
thermodynamic considerations are
the laws of thermodynamics, which
postulate that energy can be
exchanged between physical systems
as heat or work.
They also postulate the existence of
a quantity named entropy, which can
be defined for any system.

SYSTEM VS SURROUNDINGS
In thermodynamics, interactions
between large ensembles of
objects are studied and
categorized.

WHAT IS A SYSTEM?
A system is composed of particles,
whose average motions define its
properties, which in turn are related
to one another through equations of
state.
In chemical engineering, a system
could be a gas or a liquid flowing in a
pipe or in a tank or reactor

SYSTEM & THERMODYNAMICS
Thermodynamics describes how systems
respond to changes in their surroundings.
This can be applied to a wide variety of
topics in science and engineering, such as
engines, phase transitions, chemical
reactions, transport phenomena, and even
black holes.
The results of thermodynamics are
essential for other fields of physics and for
chemistry, chemical engineering, cell
biology, biomedical engineering, and
materials science to name a few

WHAT IS A SYSTEM?
A Thermodynamic System is that
part of the universe that is under
consideration or study.
A real or imaginary boundary
separates the system from the rest
of the universe, which is referred to
as the environment or surroundings
(sometimes called a reservoir.)

Exchange between Systems &
Surroundings
A useful classification of
thermodynamic systems is based on
the nature of the boundary and the
flows quantities through it as matter,
energy, work, heat, and entropy.
A system can be anything, for
example a piston, a fluid in a test
tube, a living organism, or a planet

WHAT IS AN ISOLATED
SYSTEM?
Isolated systems are completely
isolated in every way from their
environment.
They do not exchange heat, work or
matter with their environment.
An example of an isolated system
would be an insulated rigid
container, such as an insulated gas
cylinder.

WHAT IS A CLOSED SYSTEM?
Closed systems are able to exchange
energy (heat and work) but not matter
with their environment.
A greenhouse is an example of a closed
system exchanging heat but not work with
its environment.
Whether a system exchanges heat, work
or both is usually thought of as a property
of its boundary.

WHAT IS AN OPEN SYSTEM?
open systems: exchanging both
energy (heat and work) and matter
with their environment.
A boundary allowing matter
exchange is called permeable.

SYSTEM ?
Any characteristic of a system is called a
property.
Some familiar properties are pressure P,

EQUILIBRIUM
Thermodynamics deal ONLY with
equilibrium states, that means there
is no driving forces within the
system

ZEROTH LAW OF
THERMODYNAMICS
It is observed that a higher temperature
object which is in contact with a lower
temperature object will transfer heat to
the lower temperature object.
The two objects will approach the same
temperature, and in the absence of loss to
other objects, they will then maintain a
constant temperature.
They are then in thermal equilibrium.
Thermal equilibrium is the subject of the
Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics.

EQUILIBRIUM?
If you put a hot cup of coffee or tea in a cold room, heat
will flow from the cup and its contents into the room. But if
you leave it there for two hours and come back, the cup of
coffee or tea will be at the same temperature as the room.
The coffee and the room will have achieved a state of
thermodynamic equilibrium Thermodynamic
Equilibrium or Thermal equilibrium.
Thermodynamic equilibrium is when heat ceases to flow

WHAT IS A STATE FUNCTION?
In thermodynamics, a state
function, is any property of a
system that depends only on the
current state of the system, not
on the way in which the system
got to that state
Some familiar state functions are
volume, V, pressure, P, and
temperature, T.

STATE FUNCTION
For example, if we take a state from 00C to
1000C, the change in the temperature is +100oC
whether we go straight up the temperature scale
or we first cool the sytem for a few degrees then
take the system to the final temperature.
The change in temperature is independent
of the route taken so temperature is a state
function ( FIGURE 1-26 page 15 & figure
1.28 page 16)
Conversely, if the change in a function is
dependent on the route taken, then the
function is known as a path function

WHAT IS INTERNAL ENERGY?
. Internal energy, represented by U , is
essentially the thermal energy contained in a
system (or particles making up the system)
. A change in internal energy ΔU is due to the
transfer of energy into or out of a system, but
the volume stays constant.
For example, energy transferred into the system,
usually heat (q) and work (w), represents an
increase of internal energy, ΔU, of the system.
Thus,
ΔU = q + w

PROCESS?
An isothermal process is a
thermodynamic process in which the
temperature of the system stays constant:

WHAT IS AN ISOCHORIC
PROCESS?
An isochoric process, also called an

WHAT IS AN ADIABATIC
PROCESS?
In thermodynamics, an adiabatic process is a
process in which no heat is gained or lost in the
working fluid.
For example, there are no chemical processes
taking place in the fluid and there is no heat
transfer from the environment.
The term "adiabatic" describes things that are
impermeable to heat transfer; for example, an
adiabatic boundary is a boundary that is
impermeable to heat transfer and the system is
said to be adiabatically (or thermally) insulated.
An adiabatic process which is also reversible is

single point.
This point is called the critical point and
it corresponds to the highest temperature

liquid can coexist.
The temperature at this point is called the
critical temperature Tc.

WHAT IS A GAS?
In a gas phase, the atoms or
molecules constituting the matter
basically move independently, with

VAPOR VS GAS ( FIGURE 3.26
page 125)
Although vapor and gas are frequently
(incorrectly) used interchangeably,
vapor refers to a gas phase in a state of
equilibrium with identical matter in a liquid or
solid state below its boiling point, or at least
capable of forming solid or liquid at the
temperature of the vapor.
The term gas refers to a compressible fluid
phase, as in common usage
GAS EXIST AT TEMPERATURES HIGHER THAN TC
VAPOR EXIST AT TEMPERATURES LOWER THAN
TC

THE GAS PHASE
The thermodynamic state of a gas is
characterized by:
its volume, its temperature, which is determined
by the average velocity or kinetic energy of the
molecules,
and its pressure, which measures the average
force exerted by the molecules colliding against a
surface.
These variables are related by the fundamental
gas laws, which state that the pressure in an
ideal gas is proportional to its temperature and
number of molecules, but inversely proportional
to its volume.
132. Listen...Learn....Think...Enjoy Yourself
IDEAL GAS VS REAL GAS
An ideal gas or perfect gas is a hypothetical
gas consisting of identical particles of zero
volume, with no intermolecular forces.
Real gases do not exhibit these exact
properties, although the approximation is often
good enough to describe real gases.
The approximation breaks down at high
pressures and low temperatures, where the
intermolecular forces play a greater role in
determining the properties of the gas

IDEAL-GAS LAW
Any equation that relates the pressure, temperature and
specific volume of a substance is called equation of state.
In 1662, Robert Boyle observed, during his experiments
with a vacuum chamber that the pressure of gases is
inversely proportional to their volume
In 1802, Guy Lussac, experimentally determined that a low
pressures the specific volume of a gas is proportional to its
temperature
That is Pv = RT -1-
With R being the gas constant, this equation is called
And v is the specific volume by unit mass

EXAMPLES OF IDEAL GASES?
At low pressures and high temperatures, the
density of gases decreases and the gas behaves
like a ideal gas ( FIGURE 3.49 page 140)
Gases like Air, O2, N2, H2 and also heavy gases
like CO2 CAN be treated as ideal gases at low
densities
However, dense gases such as water vapor
in steam power plant and refrigerant vapors
in refrigerators can not be treated as ideal
gases.

WHAT IS A REAL GAS?
If a gas behaves exactly as the ideal
gas laws would predict it to behave
in terms of volume, pressure, moles,
and temperature, then the gas is
said to be an ideal gas.
If, on the other hand, the gas
deviates from Ideal Gas
behavior, then the gas is said to be
acting like a "real gas".
140. Listen...Learn....Think...Enjoy Yourself
What causes deviation from
ideal gas behavior?
Intermolecular forces called Van Der Waals forces
. There are three such types of Van Der
Waals forces:
London Dispersion Forces which are forces
that exist between molecules as a result of
positive nuclei of one molecule attracting the
electrons of another molecule..
Dipole-Dipole interactions which are forces
that exist between polar molecules where the
positive end of one molecule attracts the
negative end of another molecule.
Hydrogen bonding interactions are forces that
exist between molecules that have a hydrogen
atom bonded to a highly electronegative atom
such as Oxygen, Nitrogen, or Flourine.

What is the compressibility factor?
The term "compressibility" is used in thermodynamics to
describe the deviance in the thermodynamic properties of a
real gas from those expected from an ideal gas.
The compressibility factor is defined as
•
In the case of an ideal gas, the compressibility factor Z is
equal to unity, and the familiar ideal gas law is recovered:
•
Z can, in general, be either greater or less than unity for a
real gas.

REAL PHASE REGION
The deviation from ideal gas behavior
tends to become particularly significant
(or, equivalently, the compressibility
factor stays far from unity) :
near the critical point,
in the case of high pressures
low temperatures.
In these cases, an alternative equation of
state better suited to the problem must be
utilized to produce accurate results.

COMPRESSIBILITY FACTOR
The compressibility factor can be
estimated from figure 3-51 page 141 if we
know the reduced temperature and the
reduced pressure of the gas:

same for all the gases at the same
