EML3100 Thermo - Summer 2001 - Notes 5/10/01

1. Thermodynamics

2. System - device(s) containing a quantity of matter being analyzed.
(quantity of matter or a region of space)

- defined by
a control mass OR
a control volume

3. Surroundings

isolated system -

closed system -

open system -

4. Macroscopic
point of view - deals with agregate or average effects

5. Microscopic
point of view - deals with individual effects; each atom or particle.

6. Phase

7. Property

EXTENSIVE property

INTENSIVE property

an EXTENSIVE property can be made INTENSIVE by dividing by mass, volume or number of moles.

8. Notation

     UPPERCASE

     lowercase

     lowercase

9. State

[Thermodynamics - E transformations - involves changing state, passing through intermediate states.]

10. Process

11. Equilibrium Mechanical, Chemical, Thermal, Thermodynamic

A system is in equilibrium when the contents cannot change condition of their own accord. Change is only brought about by outside forces.

12. Quasi Equilibrium Process

13. Types of Processes
     Isothermal

     Isobaric

     Isochoric

     Isoentropic

     Adiabatic
