Lec 03 Theromodynamic Processes (Autosaved)

This document discusses four important thermodynamic processes: constant-volume, constant-pressure, constant-temperature, and constant-entropy. It provides descriptions of each process and assignments for calculating work, internal energy, heat transfer, enthalpy change, and entropy change. Additionally, it covers the Carnot cycle, which is a theoretically reversible heat engine composed of four processes: reversible isothermal expansion, reversible adiabatic expansion, reversible isothermal compression, and reversible adiabatic compression. The topic covered includes these four thermodynamic processes and calculations, as well as the Carnot engine.

Ideal-Gas Processes

There are an infinite variety of processes. The four important non-flow


processes commonly dealt in engineering applications are as follows:

1. Constant-volume process or isochoric


2. Constant-pressure process or isobaric
3. Constant-temperature process or isothermal
4. Constant-entropy process or adiabatic

Carnot Cycle or Carnot Engine
A French engineer, Sadi Carnot, in 1824 proposed an engine which works on a
reversible cycle. It is theoretically a heat engine that converts the maximum amount
of energy into mechanical work.

The Carnot cycle, also called reversible cycle,


comprises of four reversible processes as given:

1. Reversible isothermal expansion,


2. Reversible adiabatic (isentropic) expansion,
3. Reversible isothermal compression, and
4. Reversible adiabatic (isentropic)
compression.
