CHAPTER 1
BASIC CONCEPTS
1.1 THERMODYNAMIC SYSTEMS
The term system as used in thermodynamics refers to a definite quantity of matter bounded by some closed surface which is impervious to the flow of matter. This surface is called the boundary of the system. Everything outside the boundary of a system constitutes it surroundings.
Depending on the nature of the boundary involved, we can classify a thermodynamic system in one of the following three categories:
Fig. 1.1 Example of a system
An Isolated System allows neither heat nor work transfer across the boundary.
An Open System allows exchange of both matter and energy.
A Closed System allows only exchange of energy.
1.2 PROPERTIES OF SYSTEMS
The state of a system is its condition as identified by coordinates which can usually be observed quantitatively, such as volume, density, temperature, etc. These, coordinates are called properties.
All properties of a system can be divided into two types:
An Intensive Property is independent of the mass. (Pressure, density, temperature)
An extensive property has a value which varies directly with the mass. (Volume, energy, entropy)
1.3 PROCESSES
When a thermodynamic system changes from one state to another, it is said to execute a process, which is described in terms of the end states. A cycle is a process in which the end states are identical.
Processes are classified according to the following categories:
An Isothermal Process is a constant-temperature process.
An Isobaric Process is a constant-pressure process.
An Isometric Process is a constant-volume process.
An Adiabatic Process is a process in which heat does not cross the system boundary.
A Quasistatic Process consists of a succession of equilibrium states, such that at every instant the system involved departs only from the equilibrium
