1.1
What is Energy?
Ability to cause changes
One of the most fundamental laws of nature is the Conservation of
energy principle - during an interaction, energy can change from
one form to another but the total amount of energy remains
constant. E.g. a rock falling off a cliff & in the diet industry.
Laws of Thermodynamics:
Zeroth Law = dealing with thermal equilibrium
First Law = deal with conservation of energy
Second Law = energy has quality as well as quantity, and
actual processes occur in the direction of
decreasing quality of
energy.

Cold body, spontaneous

1.7
State
a set of properties that describe the condition of a
system at certain time
At a given state, all the properties of a system have fixed values.
If the value of one property changes, the state will change to a
different one.
Equilibrium state steady state/ state of balance
& no change in time
Thermal equilibrium
Mechanical equilibrium
Phase equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium
Thermal equilibrium
(uniform temperature)

need to specify the initial & final states of the process, as well as
the path it follows, and the interactions with the surroundings.

Common units
1 bar = 105 Pa
1 atm = 101,325 Pa = 1.01325 bars
1 kgf/ cm2 = 0.9807 bar = 0.96788 atm
English unit Ibf/in2 or psi
Absolute pressure
Actual pressure at at given position & measured relative to absolute
vacuum
Gage pressure Difference between absolute pressure & local
atmospheric pressure
Vacuum pressure
Difference between atmospheric pressure & absolute pressure
Absolute, gage & vacuum pressures are all +ve quantities & related to
each other by:
Pgage = Pabs - Patm
(for pressure above Patm)
Pvac = Patm - Pabs
Example 1-1
A vacuum gage connected to a chamber reads 5.8 psi at a location
where the atmospheric pressure is 14.5 psi. Determine the absolute
pressure in the chamber.
Using Pvac = Patm - Pabs = 14.5 - 5.8 = 8.7 psi
Manometer
Small to moderate pressure difference are measured by a manometer
and a differential fluid column of height h corresponds to a pressure
difference between the system and the surrounding of the
manometer.
P g h
( kPa )
Example 1-2
A vacuum gage connected to a tank reads 30 kPa at a location where
the atmospheric pressure is 98 kPa. What is the absolute pressure in
the tank?
Solution:
Pabs = Patm - Pgage
= 98 kPa - 30 kPa
= 68 kPa
Example 1-3
A pressure gage connected to a valve stern of a truck tire reads 240
kPa at a location where the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa. What is
the absolute pressure in the tire, in kPa and in psia?
Solution:
Pabs = Patm - Pgage
= 100 kPa + 240 kPa
= 340 kPa

Temperature
Measure of hotness and coldness
Transfer of heat from higher to lower temp. until both bodies attain
the same temp. At that point, heat transfer stops and the two bodies
have reached
thermal equilibrium
requirement: equality of temperature
Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics:
Two bodies are in thermal equilibrium when they have reached the
same temperature. If two bodies are in thermal equilibrium with a
third body, they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other.
Temperature scales:
Celcius (C)
Fahrenheit (F)
Kelvin (K)
Rankine (R)
Conversion:
T(K) = T(C) + 273.15
T(R) = T(F) + 459.67
T K = (T2C +273.15) - (T1C + 273.15)
= T2C - T1C
= TC
T R = TC
Example 1:
Consider a system whose temperature is 18C. Express this
temperature in R, K and F.
Example 2:
The temperature of a system drops by 27 F during a cooling process.
Express this drop in temperature in K, R & C
