Statement A carnot heat engine is an isolated system Temperature is proportional to volume in an isobaric process of an ideal gas The work

output of a compressor is positive A perpetual motion machine violates the mass conservation principle Entropy can only increase or remain constant in a closed system A black body absorbs all the radiation incident on its surface Heating a subcooled liquid will increase its temperature The ideal gas model is more accurate at small values of the compressibility factor Z The heat exchange between the sun and the earth occurs mostly by convection The total energy of a flowing fluid is the sum of internal, kinetic and potential energy When heating a system you also add entropy to it Thermal diffusion is an example of entropy generation during an adiabatic process The total energy of a closed system cannot vary Entropy of a system can only increase during an adiabatic process The mass of an open system during steady operations is constant The work output of a turbine is positive The Brayton engine cycle has a higher efficiency than the Carnot heat engine cycle In an ideal gas the molecules do not interact with each other For a given gas, heat transfer by convection is higher than that by conduction A perpetual motion machine of the first kind produces energy Thermal radiation only occurs at high temperature The quality of a liquid-vapor mixture increases when condensation occurs The compressibility factor of an ideal gas is 1.4 The efficiency of a heat engine only depends on the temperature of its heat source and sink Heat is a form of internal energy Thermal work is defined as the integral of P dT cp is by definition always larger than cv An isobaric process always takes place at constant pressure A closed system can not have kinetic energy Entropy has the same dimensional units as energy The first law of thermodynamics states that the total energy of a system remains constant The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of an open system always increases An isolated system does not allow external heat input The ideal gas law is valid for gas mixtures like air In a polytropic process the pressure can change independently of the volume The mass of a control volume of an open system remains constant in a steady state situation The equation of state states that a system is fully described by three independent parameters At a given pressure the quality of a liquid-vapor mixture does not depend on the temperature Radiation is a form of energy A closed system cannot change its temperature Inflating a balloon increases its specific volume It is not possible to inflate a balloon adiabatically Isobaric heating of a saturated mixture increases its quality Isothermal heating of a saturated mixture decreases its quality
