LESSON - 16 CHANGE OF ENTROPY OF GASSES IN THERMODYNAMICS PROCESSES AND NUMERICAL PROBLEMS

 16.1. TWO IMPORTANT ‘Tds’ THERMODYNAMIC RELATIONS

We have,    

or                                              

or                                             

In differential form, it can be written as    

or         TdS = dU + pdV                                                                           …………………..(16.1)

or         Tds = du + pdv       ( for unit mass )      

The above equation is very important since it establishes a relationship between all thermodynamic properties and does not involve path functions like work and heat. It is interesting, therefore, to note that equation δQ = dU + pdV   and  δQ = TdS  are true for reversible process but equation TdS = dU + pdV  is true for all processes reversible as well as irreversible. This equation is true for any two equilibrium states of a system.

Since H = U + pV

It follows that   dH = dU + pdV + Vdp

Substituting this relation in Equation (16.1)

Thus    TdS = dH - Vdp                                                                             ………………….(16.2) 

or         Tds = dh – vdp             (for unit mass)         

 Equation (16.1) and (16.2) are two important ‘TdS’ thermodynamic relations.


16.2. ENTROPY CHANGE IN A PROCESS FOR IDEAL GAS:

Various processes are shown on p-v and T-s diagrams in Fig. 16.1. The entropy change in these processes is determined as follows.

Fig. 16.1. Polytropic processes on P-v and T-s diagrams.

16.2.1. Constant volume process (Isochoric process) (Fig. 16.2):

       V1 = V2 = V            

From (16.1), we have     TdS = dU + pdV    

But   dV = 0 and  dU = m CdT;          

therefore    TdS = m CdT + 0     = m CdT

 

  or                    [ If Cv is constant for the gas]

                           S2 – S1 =  m Cln 

For unit mass,

                     s2 – s1 =  Cln 

 

 

Fig. 16.2. Constant volume process

16.2.2. Constant pressure process (Isobaric process) (Fig. 16.3):

P1 = P2 = P

From Equation (16.2), we have    

TdS = dH - Vdp    

But   dP = 0 and  dH = mCpdT; 

therefore      TdS = m CdT + 0   = m CpdT

     

or                   [ If Cp is constant for the gas]

     S2 – S1 =  m Cln  

For unit mass,

     s2 – s1 =   Cln    

 

Fig. 16.3 Constant pressure process

16.2.3. Constant temperature process (Isothermal process) (Fig. 16.4):

PV = C = mRT            or T1 = T2 = T

From Equation (16.1), we have

    TdS = dU + pdV    

But   dU = m CdT =0    as  dT = 0; 

therefore    TdS = 0 + pdV    = pdV

    

or        

Using perfect gas relation

 , we can write

 or   S2 – S1 =  m R ln  

For unit mass,

or   s2 – s1 =   R ln  

       

 

Fig. 16.4. Constant temperature process

16.2.4. Reversible and an irreversible adiabatic process (isentropic process)(Fig. 16.5):

For reversible adiabatic process, we have,  


But   δQ = 0        (for adiabatic process)

Therefore,      S2 – S1 =  0       or     S=  S2 

Therefore a reversible adiabatic process is an isentropic process

For an irreversible adiabatic process, for unit mass, we have,  


But   δQ = 0        (for adiabatic process)

Therefore,      S2 – S1 >  0      or       S2 >  S1

              

                          Fig. 16.5. Adiabatic process

16.2.5. Polytropic process:

we have,   

But for a gas,  .   Using this in the above equation, we get

                                         

S2 – S1 =  

For unit mass,

s2 – s1 =  

16.2.6. Equal-internal energy process:

U1 = U2 = U

From Equation (16.1), we have     TdS = dU + pdV    

But   dU = 0;         therefore    TdS = 0 + pdV    = pdV

dS =         or                

     or  S2 – S1 =   

 For unit mass,

or   s2 – s1 = 

 16.2.7. Change in Entropy for an Equal Enthalpy Process

     H1 = H2 = H

From Equation (16.2), we have     TdS = dH - Vdp    

   But   dH = 0 ;       therefore      Tds = 0 - Vdp    = - Vdp

     dS =       or                                          

   or     S2 – S1 =  =  

For unit mass,

       s2 – s1 =  

 16.3. CARNOT CYCLE ON T-s DIAGRAM

Let a heat engine operate on a Carnot cycle as discussed in ‘Fig. 14.11 of Lesson 14’. It works on four reversible processes as shown on T-S diagram in Fig. 16.6.

It is clear from the T-S diagram that,

The amount of heat transferred by the reservoir at temperature ‘TH’ to the working substance,

        1Q2  = T1(S2 – S1)

The amount of heat transferred by the working substance to the reservoir at temperature ‘TL’,

            3Q4 = T(S4 – S3) = T(S1 – S2).

or     3Q4 = - T(S2 – S1).


Fig. 16.6. Carnot cycle on T-S diagram.

Since the system undergoes a cycle, the net heat transfer should be equal to the net work done by the system.  

 or    Net work done by the system  = Net heat transfer by the system = 1Q2 + 3Q4

                                                                                                                      =  T(S2 – S1) + [- T(S2 – S1)]

                                                                                                        =  [T(S2 – S1) - T(S2 – S1)]

Thermal efficiency of the engine working on cycle =   

                                                                                            

             

16.4. SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS FOR A CONTROL VOLUME (C.V.)  

The second law of thermodynamics can be applied to an open system (C.V.) by a procedure similar to the application of First law for open system. Figure 16.6 shows an open system.

 Fig. 16.6. The general case for an open system

Case 1: For more than one inlet and one exit of control volume

 For a flow process as shown in Figure 16.6, the entropy rate balance gives

                                                                    ………. (16.3)

In the tabove equation the equality holds for a reversible process and the inequality for an irreversible process.

  and    is rate of entropy change within the system (C.V).

              and    rate of entropy transfer in and out of the system (C.V) accompanying mass flow.

               is rate of heat transfer during time dt at the location of boundary where the instantaneous surface temperature is T   

                 represents the accompanying rate of entropy transfer.   

                 sign for more than one inlet and one  exit of control volume

For the steady state steady flow (SSSF) process, which is defined as a process in which the conditions within the control volume do not vary with time.

i.e.                  and        

For steady state steady flow process, the change in entropy from Equation (16.3) can be given by the following equation

Case2: For one inlet and one exit of control volume

Many applications in engineering problems involve one inlet and one exit of control volume. For such cases the steady state and steady flow entropy rate balance is given by

 Determine the change in enthalpy(H2 – H1):

Formula:  Equation for energy balance for closed system is given by

         δQ  = dU + pdV

As    H =U+pV;       Therefore   δQ  = d(H – pV) + pdV

or     δQ  =dH – pdV - Vdp + pdV

or     δQ  =dH  − Vdp

Integrate,  

       1Q2  = (H2 – H1) −
