The simplest thermodynamic diagram would be to use pressure as the y-axis and temperature as the x-axis. The ideal thermodynamic diagram has three important properties The area enclosed by a cyclic process on the diagram is proportional to the work done in that process As many of the process lines as possible be straight (or nearly straight) A large angle (90 ideally) between adiabats and isotherms There are several different types of thermodynamic diagrams, all meeting the above criteria to a greater or lesser extent. They are the Stuve diagram, the emagram, the tephigram, and the skew-T/log p diagram The most commonly used diagram in the U.S. is the Skew-T/log p diagram. The Skew-T diagram is the diagram of choice among the National Weather Service and the military. The Stuve diagram is also sometimes used, though area on a Stuve diagram is not proportional to work. SKEW-T/LOG P DIAGRAM Uses natural log of pressure as the vertical coordinate Since pressure decreases exponentially with height, this means that the vertical coordinate roughly represents altitude. Isotherms, instead of being vertical, are slanted upward to the right. Adiabats are lines that are semi-straight, and slope upward to the left.

  • Steam Tables and Charts Page 4-1
    CHE 2012 Steam Tables and Charts Page 4-1 SECTION 4 STEAM TABLES AND CHARTS WATER AND STEAM Consider the heating of water at constant pressure. If various properties are to be measured, an experiment can be set up where water is heated in a vertical cylinder closed by a piston on which there is a weight. The weight acting down under gravity on a piston of fixed size ensures that the fluid in the cylinder is always subject to the same pressure. Initially the cylinder contains only water at ambient temperature. As this is heated the water changes into steam and certain characteristics may be noted. Initially the water at ambient temperature is subcooled. As heat is added its temperature rises steadily until it reaches the saturation temperature corresponding with the pressure in the cylinder. The volume of the water hardly changes during this process. At this point the water is saturated. As more heat is added, steam is generated and the volume increases dramatically since the steam occupies a greater space than the water from which it was generated. The temperature however remains the same until all the water has been converted into steam. At this point the steam is saturated. As additional heat is added, the temperature of the steam increases but at a faster rate than when the water only was being heated. The Page 4-2 Steam Tables and Charts CHE 2012 volume of the steam also increases. Steam at temperatures above the saturation temperature is superheated. If the temperature T is plotted against the heat added q the three regions namely subcooled water, saturated mixture and superheated steam are clearly indicated.

  • Real Gases – As Opposed to a Perfect Or Ideal Gas – Exhibit Properties That Cannot Be Explained Entirely Using the Ideal Gas Law
    Basic principle II Second class Dr. Arkan Jasim Hadi 1. Real gas Real gases – as opposed to a perfect or ideal gas – exhibit properties that cannot be explained entirely using the ideal gas law. To understand the behavior of real gases, the following must be taken into account: compressibility effects; variable specific heat capacity; van der Waals forces; non-equilibrium thermodynamic effects; Issues with molecular dissociation and elementary reactions with variable composition. Critical state and Reduced conditions Critical point: The point at highest temp. (Tc) and Pressure (Pc) at which a pure chemical species can exist in vapour/liquid equilibrium. The point critical is the point at which the liquid and vapour phases are not distinguishable; because of the liquid and vapour having same properties. Reduced properties of a fluid are a set of state variables normalized by the fluid's state properties at its critical point. These dimensionless thermodynamic coordinates, taken together with a substance's compressibility factor, provide the basis for the simplest form of the theorem of corresponding states The reduced pressure is defined as its actual pressure divided by its critical pressure : The reduced temperature of a fluid is its actual temperature, divided by its critical temperature: The reduced specific volume ") of a fluid is computed from the ideal gas law at the substance's critical pressure and temperature: This property is useful when the specific volume and either temperature or pressure are known, in which case the missing third property can be computed directly. 1 Basic principle II Second class Dr. Arkan Jasim Hadi In Kay's method, pseudocritical values for mixtures of gases are calculated on the assumption that each component in the mixture contributes to the pseudocritical value in the same proportion as the mol fraction of that component in the gas.

    Equation of state - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 頁 1 / 8 Equation of state From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In physics and thermodynamics, an equation of state is a relation between state variables.[1] More specifically, an equation of state is a thermodynamic equation describing the state of matter under a given set of physical conditions. It is a constitutive equation which provides a mathematical relationship between two or more state functions associated with the matter, such as its temperature, pressure, volume, or internal energy. Equations of state are useful in describing the properties of fluids, mixtures of fluids, solids, and even the interior of stars.
