... The main constituents of every kind of FC are: Fuel input (e.g. gas of defined pressure) to maintain constant performance (current), metal electrodes to collect the current, a supported catalyst to drive the redox reactions (the reactions take place at the interface of the supported catalyst and the ...

LECTURE NOTES ON PHS 222 (THERMAL PHYSICS) BY DR. V.C.
... What is Energy? This is capacity of matter to perform work as a result of its motion or position in relation to forces acting on it. In other words, if you move a load “Mg” through a distance “h” you then have done a work Mgh! Energy associated with motion is known as kinetic energy; while energy as ...

ME 435: Thermal Energy Systems Design
... In past lectures we found that the power draw (Wc) and the capacity (Qe) are important performance parameters for a compressor. If we can develop heat exchanger models that describe the heat transfer rate, we have a set of equations that are coupled together. For example, the evaporator heat transfe ...

Lecture 3: 09.14.05 The first law of thermodynamics
... Work and heat are not state functions; they are path dependent- what does this mean? In most physical situations, we are concerned with a quantity of heat or work transferred into or out of a material, which causes a change from one state of the material to another. Path dependence implies that the ...

First Law of Thermodynamics
... The first law of thermodynamics is the conservation of energy applied to thermal systems. Here, we develop the principles of thermodynamics for a discrete system, namely, an air parcel moving through the circulation. A thermodynamic system can transfer its internal energy by changing the temperature ...
