Explanation of Solution

First law of thermodynamics is based on the conservation of energy principle. Satisfaction of first law does not confirm that process will actually occur.

The first law of thermodynamics is a version of the law of conservation of energy, adapted for thermodynamic systems. The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system is constant; energy can be transformed from one form to another, but can be neither created nor destroyed.

Write the expression for first law of thermodynamics.

ΔU=QW

Here, the change in the internal energy is ΔU=QW, heat transfer is Q and work done is W.

It states that the change in the internal energy ΔU of a closed system is equal to the amount of heat Q supplied to the system, minus the amount of work W done by the system on its surroundings. An equivalent statement is that perpetual motion machines of the first kind are impossible.

A cup of hot coffee left in a cooler room eventually cools off. The heat energy of the coffee is converting into the other form of energy. The process is actually is taking place but not actually be observed in the nature.

37. The vertical shaft shown in Figure P12-37 is driven at a speed of 600 rpm with 4.0 hp entering through the bevel gear. Each of the two chain sprockets delivers 2.0 hp to the side to drive mixer blades in a chemical reactor vessel. The bevel gear has a diametral pitch of 5, a pitch diameter of 9.000 in, a face width of 1.31 in, and a pressure angle of 20°. Use SAE 4140 OQT 1000 steel for the shaft. See Chapter 10 for the methods for computing the forces on the bevel gear. Figure P12-37: P37-Bevel gear drive with two chain sprockets Each problem includes the following details: ■Design the complete shaft, including the specification of the overall geometry and the consideration of stress con- centration factors. The analysis would show the minimum acceptable diameter at each point on the shaft to be safe from the standpoint of strength.

35. The double-reduction, helical gear reducer shown in Figure P12-35 transmits 5.0 hp. Shaft 1 is the input, rotating at 1800 rpm and receiving power directly from an electric motor through a flexible coupling. Shaft 2 rotates at 900 rpm. Shaft 3 is the output, rotating at 300 rpm. A chain sprocket is mounted on the output shaft as shown and delivers the power upward. The data for the gears are given in Table 12-5. Each gear has a 1412° normal pressure angle and a 45° helix angle. The combinations of left- and right-hand helixes are arranged so that the axial forces oppose each other on shaft 2 as shown. Use SAE 4140 OQT 1200 for the shafts. Figure P12-35: P35-Double-reduction helical drive Each problem includes the following details: ■Design the complete shaft, including the specification of the overall geometry and the consideration of stress con- centration factors.
