INTRODUCTION AND BASIC CONCEPTS
Thermodynamics and Energy
Properties of a System

The Manometer
A system is defined as
SYSTEM a quantity of matter
or a region in space
chosen for study.
Density
Density is defined as mass Specific Gravity
per unit volume. Mass is a

H2O = density of water - normally
V = volume (m3)

STATE AND EQUILIBRIUM
The Type Of Equilibrium
All the properties can be measured or 1. Thermal equilibrium if the temperature
calculated throughout the entire system, is the same throughout the entire
which gives us a set of properties that system, the system involves no
completely describes the condition, or the temperature differential, which is the
state, of the system. Thermodynamics deals driving force for heat flow
with equilibrium states. The word equilibrium 2. Mechanical equilibrium is related to

equilibrium if there is no change in
state there are no unbalanced potentials (or
pressure at any point of the system with
driving forces) within the system. A system in time.
equilibrium experiences no changes when it is 3. If a system involves two phases, it is in
isolated from its surroundings. phase equilibrium when the mass of each
phase reaches an equilibrium level and
stays there.
4. A system is in chemical equilibrium if its
chemical composition does not change
with time, that is, no chemical reactions
occur. A system will not be in equilibrium
unless all the relevant equilibrium criteria
are satisfied.
PROCESSES AND CYCLES
Any change that a system undergoes from one equilibrium state to another is called a process
A system is said to have undergone a cycle if it returns to its initial state at the end of the
process. That is, for a cycle the initial and final states are identical.
Isothermal process
When the system undergoes change from one state to the other, but its
temperature remains constant, the system is said to have undergone
isothermal process.
Adiabatic process
The process, during which the heat content of the system or
certain quantity of the matter remains constant, is called as
adiabatic process.
Isochoric process
The process, during which the volume of the system remains constant,
is called as isochoric process.
Isobaric process
The process during which the pressure of the system
remains constant is called as isobaric process.
TEMPERATURE AND
THE ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
The zeroth law of thermodynamics states that two bodies
are in thermal equilibrium if both have the same temperature
reading even if they are not in contact.
The temperature scales used in the SI and the English system today are
the Celsius scale and the Fahrenheit scale, respectively. They are related
to absolute temperature scales by :
The magnitudes of each division of 1 K and 1C are identical, and so are the
magnitudes of each division of 1 R and 1F. Therefore,

THE BAROMETER AND
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE
Atmospheric pressure is measured by a device
called a barometer, thus, theatmospheric
pressure is often referred to as the barometric
pressure.
