PROCESS CALCULATION – Energy Balance
Open, closed and isolated systems
 To a thermodynamic system two ‘things’ may be added/removed:
 energy (heat, work)  mass.
 An open system is one to which you can add/remove mass (e.g. a open beaker to which
we can add water). When you add matter- you also end up adding heat (which is contained
in that mass (substance).
 A system to which you cannot add mass is called closed.
Though you cannot add/remove mass to a closed system, you can still add/remove heat
(you can cool a closed water bottle in fridge).
 A system to which neither mass nor heat can be added/removed is called isolated.
A closed vacuum ‘thermos’ flask can be considered as isolated.
Type of boundary Interactions Mass
Open All interactions possible (Mass, Work, Heat)
Closed Matter cannot enter or leave
Semi-permeable Only certain species can enter or leave Interactions possible

Insulated Heat cannot enter or leave Work

Rigid Mechanical work cannot be done*


Isolated No interactions are possible** Heat

PROCESS CALCULATION – Energy Balance
Before doing energy balance, you should know the definition,
dimension and common units of energy, specific energy and
power, enthalpy and heat capacity.
The energy components of a system The total energy E of a
system or an object is made up of three components,
including:
1. Kinetic Energy (EK): Energy due to the motion of a body
relative to a reference at rest (EK =½ mv2).
 m-Mass in Kg or lb
 v-velocity m/s

PROCESS CALCULATION – Energy Balance
2. Potential Energy (EP): Energy due to the position of a body
in a potential field (such as gravitational or electromagnetic
field) relative to a given reference. One kind of potential
energy is the one due to gravity on a body of mass m,
EP =mgh where h is the level relative or above the reference.

3. Internal Energy (U): = ΔH = Hv - Hl


 Internal energy is a macroscopic measure of the molecular,
atomic, and subenergies.
 Internal energy can not be measured directly and can only
be calculated from other variables.

PROCESS CALCULATION – Energy Balance
 Internal energy can not be measured directly and can only
be calculated from other variables.
 The internal energy of a system depends almost entirely on
the chemical composition, state of aggregation, and
temperature of the system material.
 These different energy components can be converted from
one to another within the system, and the system can
exchange energy with its surroundings in the form of heat
and work.

The transfer energy terms
1. Heat (Q): Energy transfer as a result of the temperature
difference between the system and its surroundings. If a
system and its surroundings are at the same temperature (or if
the system is perfectly insulated), then Q = 0 and the system is
termed adiabatic.
2. Work (W): Energy transfer via a moving mechanical part,
such as a turbine, an impellor of a pump (Ws = Shaft work), or
by moving the system boundary against a pressure (Flow work
Wf =Δ(pV)).
According to the law of energy conservation,
ΔE = ΔU + ΔEK + ΔEP = Q+W

 EP Potential energy (mgh); g-gravitational constant – 9.81 ms-2
 EK Kinetic energy (1/2 mv2) v- velocity , ms-1
 Thermal energy – heat (Q) supplied to or removed from a
process. Heat transferred to a system Q is +ve and heat
transferred from a system Q is –ve
 Work energy – e.g. work done by a pump (W) to transport
fluids. work done on a system W is +ve and work done by a
system W is -ve
 Internal energy (U) of molecules =ΔH = Hv – Hl = mCP ΔT

Specific Heat
 Cp is "Specific Heat in constant pressure".
 Cv is "Specific heat in constant volume".
 This means it is the amount of heat required to increase
temperature by 1 degree Celsius, when heat is given at
constant volume.
 So, Cp and Cv is used according to the heat supplied.
 The expression for the internal energy is. Two specific
heats are defined for gases, one for constant volume (CV)
and one for constant pressure (CP). For a constant volume
process with a monoatomic ideal gas the first law of
thermodynamics gives: More general case.

Specific heat at constant pressure greater than at constant volume?

 Why is the specific heat at constant pressure


greater than at constant volume?

The heat capacity at constant pressure CP is greater


than the heat capacity at constant volume CV ,
because when heat is added at constant pressure, the
substance expands and work.
QV = CV △T = △U + W = △U because no work is done.
Therefore, dU = CV dT and CV = dU dT .

 Specific Heats: the relation between temperature change and
heat
 The expression for the internal energy is. Two specific heats are
defined for gases, one for constant volume (CV) and one for
constant pressure (CP).
 For a constant volume process with a monoatomic ideal gas the
first law of thermodynamics gives: More general case.
 How much does a given amount of heat transfer change the
temperature of a substance? It depends on the substance. In general

 The nominal values used for air at 300
K are :-
 CP = 1.00 kJ/kg.K
 Cv = 0.718 kJ/kg.K
 k = 1.4

 What is CP in heat transfer?


 Heat capacity or thermal capacity is a measurable
physical quantity equal to the ratio of the heat added
to (or removed from) an object to the resulting
temperature change.
 Specific heat is the amount of heat needed to raise
the temperature of one kilogram of mass by 1 kelvin.

 Why there are two values of specific heat for a


gas?
 A solid or a liquid when heated, does not undergo any
change in the volume or pressure.
 But in case of a gas, both the pressure and volume
change on heating. Therefore, specific heat of a gas
is defined either at constant volume or at constant
pressure and hence a gas has two specific heats.

1- Boyle's law
Boyle's law (sometimes referred to as the Boyle–Mariotte law, or
Mariotte's law) is an experimental gas law that describes :
how the pressure of a gas tends to increase as the volume of the
container decreases. A modern statement of Boyle's law is
The absolute pressure exerted by a given mass of an ideal gas is
inversely proportional to the volume it occupies if the temperature
and amount of gas remain unchanged within a closed system.
Mathematically, Boyle's law can be stated as
P ∞ 1/V
PV = k

2- Charles' law
Charles' law (also known as the law of volumes) is an experimental gas law
that describes how gases tend to expand when heated. A modern
statement of Charles's law is:
When the pressure on a sample of a dry gas is held constant, the Kelvin
temperature and the volume will be directly related.[1]
This directly proportional relationship can be written as:
V ∞ T
V /T = k
where:
V is the volume of the gas,
T is the temperature of the gas (measured in kelvin)
k is a constant.

3- Gay-Lussac's gas law
 Gay-Lussac's gas law is a special case of the ideal
gas law where the volume of the gas is held
constant. When the volume is held constant, the
pressure exerted by a gas is directly proportional to
the absolute temperature of the gas.
 This example problem uses Gay-Lussac's law to find
the pressure of a heated container.

3- Gay-Lussac's gas law (con.)
The cylinder's volume remains unchanged while the gas is
heated
so Gay-Lussac's gas law applies. Gay-Lussac's gas law can be
expressed as

Pi/Ti = Pf/Tf
Where:
Pi and Ti are the initial pressure and absolute temperatures
Pf and Tf are the final pressure and absolute temperature

First, convert the temperatures to absolute temperatures.

3- Gay-Lussac's gas law (con.)
Important Points About Gay-Lussac's Law
Volume and quantity of gas are held constat.
If temperature of the gas increases, pressure increases.
If temperature decreases, pressure decreases.
Temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of gas molecules.
At a low temperature,
the molecules are moving more slowly and will hit the wall of a
container less frequently.
As temperature increases,
the motion of the molecules are increasing. They strike the walls of
the container more often, which is seen as an increase in pressure.

A throttling process is a thermodynamic


process in which the enthalpy of the gas or
medium remains constant (h = const). In
fact, the throttling processis one
of isenthalpic processes. During the throttling
process no work is done by or on the system
(dW = 0), and usually there is no heat
tranfer (adiabatic) from or into the system
(dQ = 0). On the other the throttling process
cannot be isentropic, it is a fundamentally
irreversible process. Characteristics of
throttling process:

1.No Work Transfer


2.No Heat Transfer
3.Irreversible Process
4.Isenthalpic Process

Free Expansion
• The Joule expansion (also called free expansion) is an irreversible
process in thermodynamics in which a volume of gas is kept in one side of a
thermally isolated container (via a small partition), with the other side of the
container being evacuated. The partition between the two parts of the container is
then opened, and the gas fills the whole container.

• Free expansion process is basically an expansion process against vacuum.

• In this process there is no heat transfer & work transfer from


& to the system, so as a result temperature before
& after expansion is constant, it Means free expansion
process are isothermal process.

LMTD
• The logarithmic mean temperature difference is used to determine
the temperature driving force for heat transfer in flow systems, most
notably in heat exchangers.

• The LMTD is a logarithmic average of the temperature difference


between the hot and cold feeds at each end of the double pipe
exchanger.

• For a given heat exchanger with constant area and heat transfer
coefficient, the larger the LMTD, the more heat is transferred.

• The use of the LMTD arises straightforwardly from the analysis of a


heat exchanger with constant flow rate and fluid thermal properties
