Work and Heat Transfer

It is generally related to thermal engineering which tells about the use, creation, conversion and transfer of heat energy between the systems. It is also considered that to transfer heat from one source to another, transfer of masses is also required. There are various mechanisms by which, transfer of heat takes place i.e. thermal conduction, convection, radiation or by change of phase. All these mechanisms have their own specific features which sometimes occur simultaneously within the same system.

1 - Consider 2 kg of water in a cylinder blocked by a piston at 20 C, 200 kPa. Water is heated and piston starts to rise. When the piston reaches the blocks, the volume of water has doubled. Heating continues until the pressure also doubles. Calculate the work done by water and the amount of heattransfer. Consider the case that the piston is restricted by the linear spring. Initially the spring is at rest. Water is heated until the piston reaches the blocks. Just before it hits the blocks the pressure is twice the initial pressure. Calculate the work done by water and the amount of heat transfer by the time the piston reaches the blocks. 7 D H₂0
