• ENGR 212-503
• For next time:
– Read: §1-1 to 1-10
– HW 1 --- book not available; postponed to September
8, 2003
• Outline:
– Introduction
– What is thermodynamics?
– New concepts
• Important points:
– Systems (open/closed)
– Properties (intensive/extensive)
– Units

Laws of thermodynamics
• First law of thermodynamics is same as
law of conservation of energy--deals with
quantities of energy
•Energy can change forms:
from potential energy to
kinetic energy, for
example--but the total
amount never changes.
3
Laws of thermodynamics
• Where a system such as a human body
may undergo an energy change, the first
law is written:
E in  E out  E
4
Units
• Two systems will be used heavily:
– The International System (known as the
SI system from its French title--see
text).
– The US Customary System (USCS).
(The USCS is also known as the inchpound (IP) system and the English
Engineering System).
5
Newton’s 2nd Law
F  ma  const
6
SI system constant
• In the simpler SI system the units are
chosen so that the constant is unity. The
primary dimensions are mass (kg), length
(m), and time (s or sec).
• The equation F  ma  const that
contains four units is not over-determined
because force F is then a derived or
defined unit.
7
Force is a defined unit in SI
1 N  1 kg  1 m / s2
8
USCS
• This unfortunate system has four
applicable primary dimensions for the
equation which has only four dimensions.
– Mass is lbm
– length is ft
– time is s (sec)
– force is lbf
9
USCS
• The system is over-determined
• We get around this by introducing gc, the
gravitational constant, so that
ma
F
gc
10
Gravitational constant
• In other words, the const in F=maconst
is:
1
const 
gc
11
Gravitational constant
lb m  ft
g c  32.174
2
lb f  sec
•Please memorize this.
12
Gravitational constant
• Your text gets around the problem of
over-determination by defining:
lb m  ft
1 lb f  32.174
2
sec

Advice which will gain you points
• 1. Write out all units in all equations to
the bitterest of detail.
• 2. Use a horizontal line in all equations,
not a slash.
e.g. Write
ma
F
gc
; Not F = ma/gc
14
To gain you points
• Remember that a goal is to communicate
that you know how to do the
assignments--including obtaining the
correct answer.
• Keep steps in order--work from top to
bottom on the page--do not jump
erratically to left over open space for key
steps, which may then be out of order.
Circle or box key numbers and results.
• Make it easy for your reader, not hard.
15
Notes on expressing units
• The º symbol is not used with absolute
temperatures K or R.
• Unit names are not capitalized even if
they are proper names (for example,
1,000 watts).
• Abbreviations of units are capitalized if
they are from proper names (1,000 W or
1.2 kWh).
• Abbreviations are never plural (4 joules
but 4 J; 4 kilojoules but 4 kJ).

TEAMPLAY
WHEN A TEAM PLAY EXERCISE APPEARS,
IT IS TO BE SOLVED FIRST BY YOU, THEN
BY A PARTNER, AND FINALLY AS A GROUP
OF FOUR.

TEAMPLAY
In the old movie Armageddon, actor Bruce
Willis flew to an asteroid:
• What was the force on Bruce Willis, whom
we shall assume weighs perhaps 200 lbm,
when he stepped on the asteroid where
the acceleration was an assumed 1.8
ft/s2?
18
System
• A system is a quantity of matter or region
of space we want to study.
• Two types of systems (closed and open).
• The first is known as a closed system (or
control mass)--because it involves a fixed
amount of matter and is closed to matter
(mass) transfer across the system
boundary.
19
System
•Closed system--no mass crosses boundary
indicated by dashed line.
•Mass indicated by gray is system to study.
•Boundary can move (piston could go in and
out)
20
System
• A system is a quantity of matter or
region of space we want to study.
• The second is known as an open system
(or control volume)--because it involves
a fixed region in space and is open to
matter (mass) transfer across the
system boundary.
21
System
Fluid velocity=V0
•Open system--boundary generally does
not move (it could) and mass crosses the
boundary.
•We are just interested in the region
bounded by the dashed lines.
22
System
System boundaries are often defined by
dashed lines, as in the previous pipe flow
example. The dashed lines define a control
surface.
23
TEAMPLAY
A bottle of Coke is placed in
a refrigerator that is at 3C:
•Should the bottle of Coke
be treated as a closed or
open system?
24
Definitions
• Property--A characteristic of a system to
which numerical values can be assigned to
describe the system.
25
Definitions
• State--Condition of a system defined by its
properties.
26
TEAMPLAY
• What are some properties that define the
liquid in the previous Coke example of a
system?
27
Definitions
• Extensive properties--properties which can
be counted, and for which their value for
the whole system is the sum of the value
for subsystems into which the overall
system might be divided.
• They depend on the extent of the system.
• Often symbolized with capital letters.
28
Definitions
• Intensive properties are independent of
the size (mass or volume) of the system.
• Often symbolized by lower case letters.
29
Energy
• Energy = sum of internal energy, kinetic
energy, and potential energy.
m V2
E  U  KE  PE  U 
 mgz

• (Note energy E here is an extensive
property).
30
Energy
• On a unit mass basis, or intensive basis

V
e  u  ke  pe  u 

• Every term in the previous equation has
been divided through by the mass m.
31
Other units
• Volume V will be in m3 and ft3
• Density  is in kg/ m3 or lbm/ ft3
• Specific volume v is new and powerful;
the inverse of density, it is in units of
ft3/lbm or m3/kg.

v
ρ
32
Specific gravity
• Also known as relative density--it is the
ratio of the density of a substance to some
reference density.
• Reference density is usually water at 4 ºC.
• Sometimes, for gases, “gas gravity” is
used, and in that case the reference
density is for air at 60 ºF and 14.696 psia.
