Thermo Flashcards
S.F.E.E.
Q̇-Ẇ = ṁ(Δh + ΔKE + ΔPE)
Equation for rate of Heat transfer
Q̇ = ṁCpΔT
Efficiency or COP
Desired Energy / Input Energy
η = Wout / Qin
Refrigerator COP = Qc / Win
Heat Pump COP = Qh / Win
1st Law
ΔU = ΔQ - ΔW
2nd Law
No engine can be built whose interactions are only positive work and heat transfer from a constant temperature body.
No heat engine can be 100% efficient.
Reversible heat engine efficiency
ηR = 1 - QL/QH = 1- TL/TH
this also leads to
Q1/T1 = Q2/T2
Carnot Cycle
Heat transfers are isothermal and work transfers are isentropic ∴ rectangular on T-S diagram.
Reversible process heat transfer
QR = ∫TdS
Brayton Cycle and Back Work
S.F.E.E. used to model energy transfers.
Back work = Wcompressor / Wturbine
