CHAPTER 1 : THERMODYNAMICS
============================================================================================
Thermodynamics :
It is the branch of science which deals with two forms of energy.
1) Heat
2) Work & their conversion into each other
Heat  Low grade energy
Work  High grade energy
Heat  Work – e.g Ic engines, powerplants.
(Very diffcult) (Thermal, nuclear, solar, gas turbine)
Work  Heat – e.g. Mechanical brakes
(Very easy)
Ideal Gas :
It is the gas which obeys all the laws at all pressures & temperature e.g. Air

CHAPTER 2 : HEAT TRANSFER
=====================================================================================
Heat Boundary phenomena.
Transfer occurs due to -
1) Temp. difference.
2) Phase change
(Latent Heat transfer)

w

Work(w) Boundary
Q

Heat & work are boundary phenomenon or they are they energy in transit.
– Heat is defined as the energy in transit across the boundaries of the system due to temp.
difference
– It always flow from higher temp. medium to lower temp medium.
– The amount of the heat transferred across the system can be determined using Ist law
of T
 Applications of Heat transfer :
1) Heat exchanges
2) Refridgeration Ducts
3) Air conditioning systems
4) IC engines,
5) Motors, generators & Tranformers.
6) Design of steam Generator, condensors & cooling towers
7) Electronic systems like computers, TV
8) To avoid creation of thermal stresses
Modes of Heat Transfer :
1) Conduction – Fourier’s law of H.C
2) Convection – Newton’s law of cooling
3) Radiation – Stefan Boltzman law
1) Conduction : Fourier’s law of H.C
Heat conduction is the transfer of heat energy from one substance to another substance
which are in physical constact with each other.
– Heat is conducted in solids, liquids & Gases.

VISION ENGINEERING ACADEMY, PUNE 23 © VISION ENGINEERING Publications


– In case of solids
a) Metals : Conduction is due to the flow of free electrons.
b) Non - metals : Conduction is due to the lattice vibrations.
c) Liquids : Conduction is due to molecular momentum transfer.
d) Gases : Conduction is due to in moleular collision rate.
Fourie’s Law of Heat Conduction :
The law states that the rate of Heat conduction (H.C) through a substance is directly
proportional to -
1) Area normal to the direction of heat flow.
2) Temperature Gradient in the direction of heat flow.
