Thermodynamics and Energy Transformation

 
This unit deals with one of the most
practical aspects of everyday life – 
how
we use energy
We do not create energy, but transform it
from one form into another
These transformations should be done as
efficiently as possible, since natural
resources are limited
These issues include science, but political
and economic considerations as well

The science dealing with 
heat, work and
energy
The study of 
heat energy 
and its
transformation into 
mechanical energy
.
Is a set of a few basic 
empirical
(
based on observations
)
 rules that place
limits of how these transformations can
occur, and how 
efficiently
 they can be
carried out.
Some of the topics we will cover
 
What is temperature?
How is it measured?
What is heat?
What is internal energy?
What is the difference between internal
energy, temperature, and heat?
Applications:
 engines, refrigerators, air
conditioners, human body, electric power
production systems, the atmosphere
6
Work and Heat produce same effect
A drill bit gets very hot
when drilling a hole
metal in contact with a
grinding wheel gets hot
You can also get the bit or
the metal hot by placing it
in a torch
Is there a difference in the
outcome
?
the difference between
work and heat 
must be
made clear

Heat
 stops flowing when the two systems come
to the same temperature.
Heat
 was first thought to be an actual fluid
(
caloric
), but it is 
not
 a fluid- 
it
 
is energy!
14
 
Work can change internal energy
 
When one object is rubbed against another,
work is done and heat is produced
When a gas is compressed its internal
energy is increased; when it expands, its
internal energy decreases
The internal energy of a system can change
if work is done on the system or heat is
transferred to it. (1
st
 Law of Thermo.)
 
15
How is temperature measured?
 
We use the fact that the properties of
materials change with temperature
For example:
o
Metals expand with increasing temp
o
Length of liquid column expands 
(DEMO)
o
Electrical resistance changes
o
Pressure of a gas increases with temperature
o
Infrared emission from objects changes color
These devices will be discussed in the next lecture.

Celsius scale is compressed compared
to the Fahrenheit scale, 1°C  ≠ 1°F
1°C = 180/100 = 9/5 °F
Conversion formulas:

Examples
 
1) What is the temperature in C if the
temperature is 68
°F?
 
T
C
 = (5/9) 
(T

 = (5/9)
(68 – 32)
   
= (5/9)

2)

temperature is  – 10

 = (9/5

 = (9/5

There is nothing particularly significant about
0
°C or 0°F.
Is there a temperature scale where 0 really is
ZERO – the lowest possible temperature?

It doesn’t get any colder than 0 K!
At zero Kelvin, all molecular motion stops.
We can see this from the behavior of gases,
where pressure decreases with temperature.

  11. Internal energy All systems have internal energy-- U The internal energy U is the sum of the energy of all the molecules in the system For example - in a gas the molecules are in random motion, each molecule has kinetic energy = m v2 If we add up all the kinetic energies of all the molecules we get the internal energy of the system: 1 2 1 2 1 2 = + + + + + 2 2 2 U mv m v m v etc etc 1 1 2 2 3 3 Box containing N molecules all moving around randomly U cannot be measured directly Is there a parameter that can be measured that represents U ? 11

  13. Temperature and Internal Energy Temperature, T, measures the average kinetic energy (KE) of the molecules The internal energy, U, is the total energy of all of the molecules T1 = T2 = T3 50 C U3 > U2 > U1 50 C 50 C 1 2 3 13

  14. What is heat? System B at temp TB System A at temp TA Heat is the energy that flows from one system to another because of their temperature difference. Heat stops flowing when the two systems come to the same temperature. Heat was first thought to be an actual fluid (caloric), but it is not a fluid- it is energy! 14

  15. Work can change internal energy When one object is rubbed against another, work is done and heat is produced When a gas is compressed its internal energy is increased; when it expands, its internal energy decreases The internal energy of a system can change if work is done on the system or heat is transferred to it. (1st Law of Thermo.) 15

  16. How is temperature measured?

  21. Absolute zero as cold as it gets! There is nothing particularly significant about 0 C or 0 F. Is there a temperature scale where 0 really is ZERO the lowest possible temperature? YES It is called the KELVIN scale. It doesn t get any colder than 0 K! At zero Kelvin, all molecular motion stops. We can see this from the behavior of gases, where pressure decreases with temperature. 21

  22. Approaching absolute zero GAS A Gas Pressure GAS B GAS C C 273.15 C As a gas is cooled, its pressure decreases The P vs. T plot extrapolates to a temperature of - 273.15 C for all gases, this is absolute zero TK = TC + 273.15 TC + 273 One degree K = one degree C There are no negative Kelvin temperatures 22
