The objectives of Chapter 7 are to:
|
|
|
Apply the second law of thermodynamics to processes. |
|
|
|
Define a new property called entropy to quantify the second-law effects. |
|
|
|
Establish the increase of entropy principle. |
|
|
|
Calculate the entropy changes that take place during processes for pure substances, incompressible substances, and ideal gases. |
|
|
|
Examine a special class of idealized processes, called isentropic processes, and develop the property relations for these processes. |
|
|
|
Derive the reversible steady-flow work relations. |
|
|
|
Develop the isentropic efficiencies for various steady-flow devices. |
|
|
|
Introduce and apply the entropy balance to various systems. |
