VIDEO LECTURE ON BASICS OF THERMODYNAMIC Contents Definition of thermodynamics Basic terms used Laws of thermodynamics System, Boundary and Surroundings Equilibrium Intensive and Extensive properties State, Process, Cycle Point and path functions Definition Thermodynamics is the branch of science deals with relationship between heat and work. It deals with transfer of energy within the system and across the boundary of the system. Basics Terms Used Mass Weight Volume Density Specific weight Specific gravity Specific volume Pressure Temperature Heat Work Power Energy Mass Mass is the amount of matter contained in an object, and does not depends on gravity. Unit of mass is gram, kilogram. W=mg It is denoted as 'm' Weight The amount of mass depending upon gravity is called weight. It is the product of mass and acceleration gravity. W=mg. Unit is Kgm/sec 2 (or) Newton. It is denoted as'W' Volume Space occupied by the mass. Ratio o...
