1. The First Law of Thermodynamics
Open System (Control Volume)

2. Open system = Control volume
First low of thermodynamics for open Systems
Reminder of an open System.
Open system = Control volume
It is a properly selected region in space.
Mass and energy can cross its boundary.

3. Control volume involves two main processes
Steady flow processes.
Fluid flows through the control volume steadily.
Its properties are experiencing no change with time at a fixed position.
Unsteady flow processes.
Fluid properties are changing with time.

4. Mass balance for steady flow processes
We already showed that for steady flow
Many engineering devices involve a single stream (one inlet and one exit only).

5. Energy Balance for Steady-Flow Systems

6. Let us look at some common steady flow devices
More than one inlet and exit
Only one in and one out

7. For single stream steady flow devices, the 1st low becomes
Often the change in kinetic energy and potential energy is small.
Per unit mass

8. Nozzles A1 A2
A nozzle is a device that increases the velocity of a fluid at the expense of pressure

9. Diffusers
A diffuser is a device that slows down the velocity of a fluid causing an increase in its pressure A1 A2

10. Diffusers

11. Nozzles and Diffusers (1st low analysis)
Is there work in this system?
let us say: NO
Is there heat transfer?
In fact, it depends on the problem!
Does the fluid change elevation? NO

12. In a nozzle, enthalpy is converted into kinetic energy
How can you find the mass flow rate in a nozzle?

13. Example (4-9): Deceleration of Air in a Diffuser
Air at 10oC and 80 kpa enters the diffuser of a jet engine steadily with a velocity of 200 m/s. The inlet area of the diffuser is 0.4 m2. The air leaves the diffuser with a velocity that is very small compare to the inlet velocity.
Determine
(1) The mass flow rate of the air and
(2) The temperature of the air leaving the diffuser.

14. Example (4-10): Acceleration of Steam in a Nozzle
Steam at 1.72 Mpa (250 psia) and 371C (700 F) steadily enters a nozzle whose inlet area is m2 (0.2 ft2.) The mass flow rate of the steam through the nozzle is kg/s (10 lbm/s) . Steam leaves the nozzle at Mpa (200 psia) with a velocity of m/s (900 ft/s). The heat losses from the nozzle per unit mass of the steam are estimated to be 2.8 KJ/kg (1.2 Btu/lbm).
Determine:
(a) the inlet velocity and
(b) the exit temperature of the steam.
Answers: a) 41.0 m/s or ft/s,
b) 350 C or F

15. Solution of Example: Acceleration of Steam in a Nozzle
Note that there is heat transfer (Q). So, you have to go back to the general form of the 1st low for single stream devices and get the following:

16. Turbines
A turbine is a device that produces work at the expense of temperature and pressure.
As the fluid passes through the turbine, work is done against the blades, which are attached to a shaft. As a result, the shaft rotates, and the turbine produces work.

20. Compressors
A compressor is a device that increases the pressure of a fluid by adding work to the system.
Work is supplied from an external source through a rotating shaft.

24. Turbines and Compressors
Yes!
Is there work in this system?
Is there heat transfer?
Negligible because of insulation. Exception: Internal cooling in some compressors.
Does the fluid change elevation? NO
Usually it can be ignored
Does the kinetic energy change?

25. Example (4-12): Power Generation by a Steam Turbine
The power output of an adiabatic steam turbine is 5 MW, and the inlet and the exit conditions of the steam are as indicated in the figure on the right.
a) Compare the magnitude of h, ke, and pe.
b) Determine the work done per unit mass of the steam flowing through the turbine.
c) Calculate the mass flow rate of the steam.
Answers: a) h = kJ/kg,
ke = kJ/kg, pe = kJ/kg,
b) kJ/kg, and c) 5.74 kg/s

26. Throttling Valve P1>P2
A throttling valve reduces the fluid pressure.
P1>P2
It is small device and thus the flow through it may be assumed adiabatic (q=0) since there is neither sufficient time nor large enough area for any effective heat transfer to occur.

27. Throttling Valve NO Usually it can be ignored NO
Is there work in this system?

Does the fluid change elevation?
Usually it can be ignored
Does the fluid change velocity?

28. What happens to the fluid temperature a cross throttling Valves ?

29. Throttling Valves (incompressible substance )
For incompressible substance (like water),  is constant
and
For incompressible substance only!

30. Throttling Valves (compressible substance: Vapor)
Example (4-13): Expansion of Refrigerant-134a in a Refrigerator
Refrigerant-134a enters the capillary tube of a refrigerator as saturated liquid at 0.8 MPa and is throttled to a pressure of 0.12 MPa.
Determine the quality of the refrigerant at the final state and the temperature drop during this process. <Answers: 0.339, oC>

31. Solution of Example: Expansion of Refrigerant-134a in a Refrigerator
Notice that T2 <T1

32. Throttling Valves (Compressible substance: an Ideal Gas)
What happens if the gas is ideal?
For ideal gases
h = Cp  T But  h = 0
So…  T = 0
The inlet and outlet temperatures are the same!!!

33. Mixing Chamber
Mixing two or more fluids is a common engineering process
The mixing chamber does not have to be a distinct “chamber.” An ordinary T-elbow, or a Y-elbow in a shower, for example, serves as the mixing chamber for the cold- and hot-water streams as shown in the figure (Left).

34. Mixing Chamber No No No No
We no longer have only one inlet and one exit stream
Is there any work done? No
Is there any heat transferred? No
Is there a velocity change? No No
Is there an elevation change?

35. Mixing Chamber

Energy balance

36. Example(4-14): Mixing of Hot and Cold Waters in a Shower
Consider an ordinary shower where hot water at 140oF is mixed with cold water at 50oF. If it is desired that a steady stream of warm water at 110oF be supplied, determine the ratio of the mass flow rates of the hot to cold water. Assume the heat losses from the mixing chamber to be negligible and the mixing to take place at a pressure of 20 psia.
<Answer: 2.0>

37. Heat Exchanger
A heat exchanger is a device where two moving fluids exchange heat without mixing.

38. Heat Exchangers
Your analysis approach will depend on how you define your system

39. Heat Exchangers System (a): entire HX

40. Heat Exchangers System (b): Single stream
Mass Balance
Considering one single stream with one inlet and one outlet flow rates
Energy balance
One inlet
One outlet
Plus heat transfer

41. Example: Cooling of Refrigerant-134a by Water
Refrigerant-134a is to be cooled by water in a condenser. The refrigerant enters the condenser with a mass flow rate of 6 kg/min at 1 MPa and 70oC and leaves at 35oC. The cooling water enters at 300 kPa and 15oC and leaves at 25oC. Neglecting any pressure drop, determine
(a) the mass flow rate of the cooling water required and (b) the heat transfer rate from the refrigerant to water.
