The objectives of Chapter 5 are to:

Develop the conservation of mass principle.

Apply the conservation of mass principle to various systems including steady- and unsteady-flow control volumes.

Apply the first law of thermody-namics as the statement of the conservation of energy principle to control volumes.

Identify the energy carried by a fluid stream crossing a control surface as the sum of internal energy, flow work, kinetic energy, and potential energy of the fluid and to relate the combination of the internal energy and the flow work to the property enthalpy.

Solve energy balance problems for common steady-flow devices such as nozzles, compressors, turbines, throttling valves, mixers, heaters, and heat exchangers.

Apply the energy balance to general unsteady-flow processes with particular emphasis on the uniform-flow process as the model for commonly encoun-tered charging and discharging processes.
