Micro & Macro Descriptions of Internal Energy P M V Subbarao Professor Mechanical Engineering Department Important Form of Energy for Engineering Systems …..
3
The Greatest Thermodynamic Relation Internal Energy and Temperature UAUA Substance A Substance B UBUB If two substances are at same temperature, their microscopic translational kinetic energy must be same
4
What is Temperature Really?
5
Absolute Kelvin Temperature is proportional to average kinetic energy of atoms in a macroscopic system. When atoms collide they tend on the average, to equalize kinetic energy spreads equally over all atoms. This is called thermal equilibrium.
6
Measurement of Energy Macroscopic Energy: Easy to measure. Microscopic Energy: Needs a detailed experiment. Identify methods to measure economically.
7
Measurement of Change in Internal Energy First law for A control mass: 1 Q 2 = U 2 – U 1 Consider a homogeneous phase of a substance with constant composition. Define Specific Heat: The amount of heat required per unit mass/mole to raise the temperature by one degree. No change in other forms of energy, except internal energy. Constant Volume Heating
8
Constant Volume Specific Heat The molar specific heat at constant volume is defined by Based on microscopic theory, for a monatomic ideal gas, Based on microscopic theory, for a polyatomic ideal gas,

Measurement of Changes during Constant Pressure Process Constant pressure heating of a control mass: Constant Pressure Heating
14
Constant Pressure Specific Heat The molar specific heat at constant pressure is defined by Using the first law of thermodynamics for a constant pressure process this can be put in the form From a mono atomic ideal gas ( pV=nRT) under constant pressure conditions it can be seen that
