Term
Thermodynamic State
Definition
state that is identified by values of a suitable set of parameters known as state variables, state parameters, or thermo variables.
Term
What are some state variables?
Definition
Pressure, Temperature, density, specific internal energy, specific enthalpy, specific entropy.
Term
What is the state principal phase rule?
Definition
F = C - P + 2
Term
Critical Temperature(T_c)?
Definition
the max temperature at which a liquid and vapor phase can coexist in equilibrium
Term
Critical Pressure (P_c)?
Definition
Pressure at the critical point on a PVT plot.
Term
T/F? In a 2 phase region temperature and pressure are independent of one another?
Definition
FALSE
Term
Compressed Liquid
Definition
density varies little with pressure
Term
Saturated Liquid
Definition
Is 100% a liquid at its saturation temperature or saturation pressure
Term
Saturated Vapor
Definition
Is 100% a vapor at its saturation temp or saturation pressure.
Term
mass quality equation
Definition
x = mass of vapor/ (mass of vapor+mass of liquid)
Term
Two phase region equations
Definition
specific volume= (1-quality)(v_f)+(x)v_g
u=(1-x)u_f+(x)u_g
Term
enthalpy equation
Definition
h = u + Pv
Term
Incompressed Fluid approximation
Definition
delta(h) = c*delta(T)+ specific volume*delta(P)
change in enthalpy = "cat"+"vap"
Term
Ideal gas approximation
Definition
delta (u) = C_v*delta(T)
*holds for both constant Volume/Pressure
Term
Compressibility Chart eqn
Definition
Z=Pv/RT v = specific volume*
Term
Liquid/Solid/Ideal gas approximation
Definition
* constant pressure/constant heat capacity
delta(h) = C_p*delta(T)
change in enthalpy="cat"
Term
Nozzle/Diffuser Eqn
Definition
No Q, No W, No PE :
h_out-h_in=0.5(V_out^2-V_in^2)
Term
Throttle Eqn
Definition
h_out=h_in
*if no shaft work
Term
Heat Exchanger Eqn
Definition
m_1(h1_out-h1_in)=-m_2(h2_out-h2_in)
* if no shaft work, negligible KE/PE
