INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, and Fluid Mechanics
1-1C On a downhill road the potential energy of the bicyclist is being converted to kinetic energy, and thus the bicyclist
picks up speed. There is no creation of energy, and thus no violation of the conservation of energy principle.
1-2C There is no truth to his claim. It violates the second law of thermodynamics.
1-3C A car going uphill without the engine running would increase the energy of the car, and thus it would be a violation of
the first law of thermodynamics. Therefore, this cannot happen. Using a level meter (a device with an air bubble between
two marks of a horizontal water tube) it can shown that the road that looks uphill to the eye is actually downhill.
1-4C Thermodynamics deals with the amount of heat transfer as a system undergoes a process from one equilibrium state
to another. Heat transfer, on the other hand, deals with the rate of heat transfer as well as the temperature distribution within
the system at a specified time.
1-5C (a) The driving force for heat transfer is the temperature difference. (b) The driving force for electric current flow is
the electric potential difference (voltage). (a) The driving force for fluid flow is the pressure difference.
1-6C Heat transfer is a non-equilibrium phenomena since in a system that is in equilibrium there can be no temperature
differences and thus no heat flow.
1-7C No, there cannot be any heat transfer between two bodies that are at the same temperature (regardless of pressure)
since the driving force for heat transfer is temperature difference.
1-8C Stress is defined as force per unit area, and is determined by dividing the force by the area upon which it acts. The
normal component of a force acting on a surface per unit area is called the normal stress, and the tangential component of a
force acting on a surface per unit area is called shear stress. In a fluid, the normal stress is called pressure.
Mass, Force, and Units
1-9C Kg-mass is the mass unit in the SI system whereas kg-force is a force unit. 1-kg-force is the force required to
accelerate a 1-kg mass by 9.807 m/s2. In other words, the weight of 1-kg mass at sea level is 1 kg-force.
1-10C In this unit, the word light refers to the speed of light. The light-year unit is then the product of a velocity and time.
Hence, this product forms a distance dimension and unit.
1-11C There is no acceleration, thus the net force is zero in both cases.

1-12 The variation of gravitational acceleration above the sea level is given as a function of altitude. The height at which the
weight of a body will decrease by 0.3% is to be determined.

1-18 A resistance heater is used to heat water to desired temperature. The amount of electric energy used in kWh and kJ are
to be determined.
Analysis The resistance heater consumes electric energy at a rate of 4 kW or 4 kJ/s. Then the total amount of electric energy
used in 3 hours becomes
Total energy = (Energy per unit time)(Time interval)
= (4 kW)(3 h)
= 12 kWh
Noting that 1 kWh = (1 kJ/s)(3600 s) = 3600 kJ,
Total energy = (12 kWh)(3600 kJ/kWh)
= 43,200 kJ
Discussion Note kW is a unit for power whereas kWh is a unit for energy.

1-20 A gas tank is being filled with gasoline at a specified flow rate. Based on unit considerations alone, a relation is to be
obtained for the filling time.
Assumptions Gasoline is an incompressible substance and the flow rate is constant.
Analysis The filling time depends on the volume of the tank and the discharge rate of gasoline. Also, we know that the unit
of time is „seconds‟. Therefore, the independent quantities should be arranged such that we end up with the unit of seconds.
Putting the given information into perspective, we have
t [s] V [L], andV [L/s}
It is obvious that the only way to end up with the unit “s” for time is to divide the tank volume by the discharge rate.
Therefore, the desired relation is 

Discussion Note that this approach may not work for cases that involve dimensionless (and thus unitless) quantities.

1-21 A pool is to be filled with water using a hose. Based on unit considerations, a relation is to be obtained for the volume
of the pool.
Assumptions Water is an incompressible substance and the average flow velocity is constant.
Analysis The pool volume depends on the filling time, the cross-sectional area which depends on hose diameter, and flow
velocity. Also, we know that the unit of volume is m3. Therefore, the independent quantities should be arranged such that
we end up with the unit of seconds. Putting the given information into perspective, we haveV
[m3] is a function of t [s], D [m], and V [m/s}
It is obvious that the only way to end up with the unit “m3” for volume is to multiply the quantities t and V with the square
of D. Therefore, the desired relation is
V = CD2Vt
where the constant of proportionality is obtained for a round hose, namely, C =π/4 so thatV = (
D2/4)Vt.
Discussion Note that the values of dimensionless constants of proportionality cannot be determined with this approach.

1-23E A man is considering buying a 12-oz steak for $3.15, or a 300-g steak for $2.95. The steak that is a better buy is to
be determined.
Assumptions The steaks are of identical quality.
Analysis To make a comparison possible, we need to express the cost of each steak on a common basis. Let us choose 1 kg
as the basis for comparison. Using proper conversion factors, the unit cost of each steak is determined to be

1-25 The flow of air through a wind turbine is considered. Based on unit considerations, a proportionality relation is to be
obtained for the mass flow rate of air through the blades.
Assumptions Wind approaches the turbine blades with a uniform velocity.
Analysis The mass flow rate depends on the air density, average wind velocity, and the cross-sectional area which depends
on hose diameter. Also, the unit of mass flow ratem is kg/s. Therefore, the independent quantities should be arranged such
that we end up with the proper unit. Putting the given information into perspective, we havem
[kg/s] is a function of
 [kg/m3], D [m], and V [m/s}

1-26 A relation for the air drag exerted on a car is to be obtained in terms of on the drag coefficient, the air density, the car
velocity, and the frontal area of the car.
Analysis The drag force depends on a dimensionless drag coefficient, the air density, the car velocity, and the frontal area.
Also, the unit of force F is newton N, which is equivalent to kgm/s2. Therefore, the independent quantities should be
arranged such that we end up with the unit kgm/s2 for the drag force. Putting the given information into perspective, we
have
FD [ kgm/s2]  CDrag [], Afront [m2],
 [kg/m3], and V [m/s]
It is obvious that the only way to end up with the unit “kgm/s2” for drag force is to multiply mass with the square of the
velocity and the fontal area, with the drag coefficient serving as the constant of proportionality. Therefore, the desired
relation is2

Discussion Note that this approach is not sensitive to dimensionless quantities, and thus a strong reasoning is required.
1-27C Despite the convenience and capability the engineering software packages offer, they are still just tools, and they will
not replace the traditional engineering courses. They will simply cause a shift in emphasis in the course material from
mathematics to physics. They are of great value in engineering practice, however, as engineers today rely on software
packages for solving large and complex problems in a short time, and perform optimization studies efficiently.

Systems, Properties, State, and Processes
2-1C The radiator should be analyzed as an open system since mass is crossing the boundaries of the system.
2-2C The system is taken as the air contained in the piston-cylinder device. This system is a closed or fixed mass system
since no mass enters or leaves it.
2-3C A can of soft drink should be analyzed as a closed system since no mass is crossing the boundaries of the system.
2-4C Intensive properties do not depend on the size (extent) of the system but extensive properties do.
2-5C If we were to divide the system into smaller portions, the weight of each portion would also be smaller. Hence, the
weight is an extensive property.
2-6C Yes, because temperature and pressure are two independent properties and the air in an isolated room is a simple
compressible system.
2-7C If we were to divide this system in half, both the volume and the number of moles contained in each half would be
one-half that of the original system. The molar specific volume of the original system isN
V
v 
and the molar specific volume of one of the smaller systems isNN
/
V
V
v  2/
2
which is the same as that of the original system. The molar specific volume is then an intensive property.
2-8C A process during which a system remains almost in equilibrium at all times is called a quasi-equilibrium process.
Many engineering processes can be approximated as being quasi-equilibrium. The work output of a device is maximum and
the work input to a device is minimum when quasi-equilibrium processes are used instead of nonquasi-equilibrium
processes.
2-9C A process during which the temperature remains constant is called isothermal; a process during which the pressure
remains constant is called isobaric; and a process during which the volume remains constant is called isochoric.
2-10C The pressure and temperature of the water are normally used to describe the state. Chemical composition, surface
tension coefficient, and other properties may be required in some cases.
As the water cools, its pressure remains fixed. This cooling process is then an isobaric process.

2-11C When analyzing the acceleration of gases as they flow through a nozzle, the proper choice for the system is the
volume within the nozzle, bounded by the entire inner surface of the nozzle and the inlet and outlet cross-sections. This is a
control volume since mass crosses the boundary.
2-12C The specific gravity, or relative density, and is defined as the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of
some standard substance at a specified temperature (usually water at 4°C, for which H2O = 1000 kg/m3). That is,H2O/SG

Tables, and type the data in a two-column table, (3) select Plot and plot the data, and (4) select plot and click on “curve fit”
to get curve fit window. Then specify 2nd order polynomial and enter/edit equation. The results are:
(z) = a + bz + cz2 = 1.20252 – 0.101674z + 0.0022375z2 for the unit of kg/m3,
(or, (z) = (1.20252 – 0.101674z + 0.0022375z2)109 for the unit of kg/km3)
where z is the vertical distance from the earth surface at sea level. At z = 7 km, the equation would give  = 0.60 kg/m3.

Temperature
2-14C They are Celsius (C) and kelvin (K) in the SI, and fahrenheit (F) and rankine (R) in the English system.
2-15C Probably, but not necessarily. The operation of these two thermometers is based on the thermal expansion of a fluid.
If the thermal expansion coefficients of both fluids vary linearly with temperature, then both fluids will expand at the same
rate with temperature, and both thermometers will always give identical readings. Otherwise, the two readings may deviate.
2-16C Two systems having different temperatures and energy contents are brought in contact. The direction of heat transfer
is to be determined.
Analysis Heat transfer occurs from warmer to cooler objects. Therefore, heat will be transferred from system B to system A
until both systems reach the same temperature.
2-17 A temperature is given in C. It is to be expressed in K.
Analysis The Kelvin scale is related to Celsius scale by
T(K] = T(C) + 273
Thus,
T(K] = 37C + 273 = 310 K

Analysis This problem deals with temperature changes, which are identical in Rankine and Fahrenheit scales. Thus,
T(R) = T(°F) = 45 R
The temperature changes in Celsius and Kelvin scales are also identical, and are related to the changes in Fahrenheit and
Rankine scales by
T(K) = T(R)/1.8 = 45/1.8 = 25 K
and T(C) = T(K) = 25C
Pressure, Manometer, and Barometer
2-23C The atmospheric pressure, which is the external pressure exerted on the skin, decreases with increasing elevation.
Therefore, the pressure is lower at higher elevations. As a result, the difference between the blood pressure in the veins and
the air pressure outside increases. This pressure imbalance may cause some thin-walled veins such as the ones in the nose to
burst, causing bleeding. The shortness of breath is caused by the lower air density at higher elevations, and thus lower
amount of oxygen per unit volume.
2-24C The blood vessels are more restricted when the arm is parallel to the body than when the arm is perpendicular to the
body. For a constant volume of blood to be discharged by the heart, the blood pressure must increase to overcome the
increased resistance to flow.
2-25C No, the absolute pressure in a liquid of constant density does not double when the depth is doubled. It is the gage
pressure that doubles when the depth is doubled.
2-26C Pascal’s principle states that the pressure applied to a confined fluid increases the pressure throughout by the same
amount. This is a consequence of the pressure in a fluid remaining constant in the horizontal direction. An example of
Pascal’s principle is the operation of the hydraulic car jack.
2-27C The density of air at sea level is higher than the density of air on top of a high mountain. Therefore, the volume flow
rates of the two fans running at identical speeds will be the same, but the mass flow rate of the fan at sea level will be
higher.
