TUTORIAL 1
(a) An Overview of Thermodynamics
Qa1: What is the change in the internal energy of a system when a total of 150.00 J is transferred by heat from the
system and 159.00 J is done by work on the system?

Qa2: Suppose 40.00 J of energy is transferred by heat to a system, while the system does 10.00 J of work. Later, heat
transfers 25.00 J out of the system, while 4.00 J is done by work on the system. What is the net change in the
internal energy of the system?

Qa3: A rigid tank contains a hot fluid that is cooled while being s rred by a
paddle wheel. Ini ally, the internal energy of the fluid is 800 kJ. During the
cooling process, the fluid loses 500 kJ of heat, and the paddle wheel does
100 kJ of work on the fluid.
Determine the final internal energy of the fluid (Neglect the energy stored
in the paddle wheel).

Qa4: A piece of ice at 0.0°C and 101.3 kPa absorbed 6.01 kJ of heat from the surroundings. It is given that the molar
volumes of ice and water at 0°C are 1.97 x10-5 m3 and 1.80 x10-5 m3, respec vely. Calculate ΔH and ΔU for the
mel ng of ice at 0.0°C.

Qa5: Heat is transferred to a heat engine from a furnace at a rate of 80 MW.


If the rate of waste heat rejec on to a nearby river is 50 MW, determine
the net power output and the thermal efficiency for this heat engine.

(b) The Basic Modes of Heat Transfer (Part I)


Qb1: A 10 cm thick block of ice with a temperature of 0 °C lies on the upper surface of 2400 cm2 slab of stone. The
slab is steam-exposed on the lower surface at a temperature of 100 °C.
Find the thermal conduc vity of stone if 4000 g of ice is melted in one hour given that the amount of heat
transferred through the ice is 1.34 x 106 J.

Qb2: A polystyrene foam ice box has a total area of 0.950 m2 and walls with an average thickness of 2.50 cm. The
box contains ice, water, and canned beverages at 0oC. The inside of the box is kept cold by mel ng ice. It is
given that the latent heat of mel ng of ice at 0°C is 334 J/g.
How much ice melts in one day if the ice box is kept in the trunk of a car at 35oC?

Qb3: An aluminium pan has a bo om that is 0.800 cm thick and 14 cm in diameter. It is placed on an electrical
element on a stovetop to boil water. The boiling water is evapora ng at the rate of 1 g/s. Given that the
thermal conduc vity of the aluminium pan, k = 220 J/s⋅m⋅°C and the necessary heat of vaporiza on of water
= 2256 J/g.
What is the temperature difference across—through—the bo om of the pan?

Qb4: Find the thermal diffusivity of water considering the density as 997 kg/m3, specific heat capacity as 4184
J/kg⋅K, and thermal conduc vity, 0.607 W/m⋅K.

Qb5: An insulated metal rod with a length of 80cm and a diameter of 0.5 cm. In an experiment, one end of the rod
is held at 120oC, while the other end is placed in an ice bath keeping its temperature 0oC. It takes half an hour
for 6810J of energy to get transferred from one end of the rod to the other, mel ng half the ice in the bath.
Suggest the type of metal this rod is made of.
Given that:
Material Lead Steel Brass Aluminium Copper Silver
Thermal conduc vity, k (W/m.K) 34.7 50.2 109 205 385 406
