Thermodynamics
The first law of thermodynamics is nothing but law of conservation of
energy ie Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but can
be converted from one form to other.
In other words, When a system undergoes a thermodynamic cycle
then the net heat supplied to the system from the surroundings is
equal to net work done by the system on its surroundings.
Equations:
For cyclic process, the sum of net heat supplied is equal to sum to net
work done.
dQ = dW
For non-cyclic processes, the sum of heat supplied is equal to sum of
work done and change in internal energy of the system.
Q= W+ dU
For steady flow systems,
q-u= d(U) + d(KE) + d(PE)
For various process:
1. As in constant volume process work done w is zero,
dQ = dU
We have, Q= m* Cv *dT
And thus we also get Cv = (dU/dT)
2. For constant pressure process, P=C
Work done W=p.dV= p(V2-V1) and Q-W= dU
So Q= p(V2-V1) + dU = H2-H1
Cp = (dh/dT)
3. For constant temperature process, T=C
As dU= f(T), dU=0
Hence, Q=W.
4. For adiabatic/isentropic process, Q=0
Thus, W=-dU
ie W=U1-U2
5. For Polytropic Process,
W = (P1V1-P2V2)/(n-1)
Energy Capacity to do work
Total energy
Energy classifies as
1. Macroscopic energy 2.Microscopic energy
Microscopic energy related molecular structure of system and
degree of molecular activity
Sum of all microscopic forms of energy posses by system is
Internal energy
By first law of thermodynamics for system undergoing process we
can write
d(Q) = d(E) + d(W)
d(E) = d(Q)-d(W)
If KE and PE are kept constant then change in total energy is called
as internal energy and denoted by U
According to joule law internal energy is function of temperature. U
is independent of pressure and volume of particular state of system
The processes L and M together constitute a
cycle, for which
dW = dQ
W(l) + W(m)= Q(l) + Q(m)
or Q(l) W(l) = W(m) Q(m) ...(1)
This can be written as
E(l)= E(m) ...(2)
Similarly, had the system returned
from state 2 to state 1 by following the
path N instead of path M
E(l) = E(n) ...(3)
From equations (2) and (3),
E(m) = E(n) ...(4.10)
change in energy between two states of a system is the
same, whatever path the system may follow in undergoing
that change of state
energy has a definite value for every state of the system.
Hence, it is a point function and a property of the system

What is PMM-I
A machine which would continuously supply mechanical work
without some form of energy disappearing simultaneously. Such a
fictitious machine is called a perpetual motion machine of the first
kind

The converse of the above statement is also true, i.e., there can be no
machine which would continuously consume work without some other
form of energy appearing simultaneously (Fig.2).
