Entropy and Exergy Flashcards
(16 cards)
Entropy Transfer by Heat is
Path dependent
Entropy production is…
The difference between the entropy transfer by heat chosen path versus the reversible path
The ____ of a process is always that in which net entropy (___ + ___) increases
direction; system + environment
Entropy production represents…
a loss of resources
Entropy production can occur in…
the system or the environment (or both)
Entropy production is a measure of energy moving from usable to
unusable form
Exergy destruction is a direct measure of….
energy moving from usable to unusable form
Exergy destruction =
sigma_p * To
For a reversible process, the area under the Temp - Entropy (S) curve =
Heat (Q) transferred
dQ = T*dS
Enthalpy (h) =
u + p*v
For a reversible process, dW =
p*dV
SCI stands for
strength of Clausius inequality
SCI represents relative measure of…
inefficiencies of a cycle
Flow work is…
Rate of energy supplied by a system to push the fluid out
enthalpy is measured in
Joules
adiabatic means
no heat enters or leaves the system
