3.4 3 Reversibl e and Irreversible Processes a C previous chapters the energy equations for non-flow and flow processes re derived, the concepts of reversibility and irreversibility introduced, and the properties of vapours and perfect gases discussed. It is the purpose of this chapter to consider processes in practice, and to combine this with the work of the previous chapters. Reversible non-flow processes Constant volume process ~ In a constant volume process the working substance is contained in a rigid vescel, hence the boundaries of the system are immovable and no work can be done on or by the system, other than paddle-wheel work input. It will be assumed that ‘constant volume’ implies zero work unless stated otherwise. From the non-flow energy equation, (1.4), for unit mass, Q+Wauz-4 Since no work is done, we therefore have Qu ap of for mass, m, of the working substance Q=Ui-Uy (3.2) [All the heat supplied ima constant volume process goes to increasing the internal energy A vonstant volume process for a vapour is shown on a p-t diagram in Fig 31a) The initial and final states have been chosen to be in the wet FeBio® find superheat region respectively, In Fig. 3.1(b) a constant volume procs aoe eee a pt diagram for a perfect gas.

Example 3.1 A mass of 0.05 kg of a fluid is heated at a constani pressure of 2 bar until the volume occupied is 0.0658 m?. Calculate the heat supplied and the work done: (i) when the fluid is steam, initially dry saturated; (ij when the fluid is aie, initially at 130 Solution (i) Initially the steam is dry saturated at 2 bar, heace, 1, at 2 bar = 2707 kI/kg hy = Finally the steam is at 2 bar and the specific volume is given by 0658 by “- = 1.316 m3 /kg. Hence the steam is sup theated finaily. From superkeat tibles at 2 bar and 1.316 m?ykg the temperature of the steam 1s 300°C, and the enthalpy is hy = 3072 KI /ke. Then from equation (3.4) Q =H, — H, = m(h, ~ h,) = 0.05(3072 - 2707) 0.05 x 365 = 18.25 kJ The process is shown on a p-v diagram in Fig, 3.3, = W = p(v; — 0) = shaded area Now 0 =u, at 2 bar = 0.8856 m?/kg, and v; = 1.316m!/kg, Therefore W = —2 x 10%(1.316 ~ 0.8856) = — 86.080 N m/kg. ie.

From state | to State A the pressure remains at p,, since in the wet region the pressure and ‘emperature are the corresponding saturation values. It can be seen therefore that an isothermal process for wet steam is also at cgnstant pressure and equations (3.3) and (3.4) can be used (e.g. heat supplied from state I to state A per kilogram of steam = hy ~ h,), In the superheat region the pressure falls to pz as shown in Fig. 3.5, and the procedure is not so simple. When states 1 and 2 are fixed then the internal energies u, and u; may be obtained from tables. When the property entropy, s, is introduced in Chapter 4, a convenient way of evaluating the heat supplied will be shown, When the heat flow is calculated the work done can then be obtained using the non-flow energy equation, (1.4), for unit mass Q+W=u,-u, a > Len W Ps Yj T=% Va steam at 7 bar and dryness fraction 0.9 expands in a cylinder behind a piston the change of d reversibly to a pressure of 1.5 bar.

For a perfect gas from Joule’s U, — Uy = me,(T, — Tr) .w, equation (2.14), we have Hence for an isothermal process for a perfect gas, since T, = T,, then U,-U,=0 ie. the internal energy remains constant in an isothermal process for a perfect gas. From the non-flow energy equation (1.4) for unit mass O+Wau—u Therefore, since u; = u,, then Q+w=0 (3.12) for an isothermal process for a perfect gas. Note that the heat flow plus the work input is zero in an isothermal process for a perfect gas only. From Example 3.2 for steam it is seen that, although the Example 3.3 is Solution Fig. 38 Isothermal process on a p-v diagram for Example 3.3 _ 32 3.2 Reversible adiabatic non-flow processes Process is isothermal, the change in internal energy is 217.5 kJ/kg, and therefore the heat supplied plus the work done is not zero. 1 kg of nitrogen (molar mass 28 kg/kmol) is compressed reversibly and isothermally from 1,01 bar, 20°C to 4.2 bar. Calculate the work done and the heat flow during the process. Assume nitrogen to be a perfect gas.

Q= -124kI/kg ie.

From equation (2.5) po=RT or p=Ft Hence, substituting in the equation pe” = constant, we have RT al =constant or To*~! = constant (3.26) Also, writing v = RT/p, we have ) p{—) =constant or P p It can be seen that these equations are similar to the equations (3.47) and (3.18) for a reversible adiabatic process for a perfect gas. In fact the reversible adiabatic process for a perfect gas is a particular case of a polytropic process with the index, n, equal to 7. Equations (3.26) and (3.27) can be written as 7a = constant (327) on 2) (3.28) and Be (ey (329) 2 P2. Note that equations (3.26), (3.27), (3.28) and (3.29) do not apply to a vapour undergoing a polytropic process, since the characteristic equation of state, pv = RT, which was used in the derivation of the equations, applies only to @ perfect gas, | For a perfect gas expanding polytropically it is sometimes more convenient to express the work input in terms of the temperatures at the end states. From equation (3.24) W = (py02 = pon — 1) 88 3.3. Polytropie processes then, from equation (2.5), py», = RT; = _Xh=-%) : and p30; = RT}.

Therefore it can be wren from equation (3.32) that when the polytropic index 1 is greater than 7, in a compression process, then the right-hand side of the equation is positive (ie. heat is supplied during the process). Conversely, when 7 is less than 7 in compression process, then heat is rejected by the gas. Similarly, the work input in an expansion process is negative, therefore when n is greater than 7. invan expansion process, heat is rejected; and when n is less than 7, in an txpansion process, heat must be supplied to the gas during the process. It was Shown in section 2.3 that 7 for all perfect gases has a value greater than unity, Reversible and Irravaraible Processos i r 1° according t Example 3.7 Lkg of « perfect gas is compressed from 1.1 bar, 2 gto a ° Jaw po! = constant, until the pressure is 6.6 bar.

Heat rejected = 58.6 kJ/kg, In a polyttopic process the index n depends only on the heat and work quantities during the process. The various processes considered in sections 3.1 and 3.2 are special cases of the polytropic process for a perfect gas. When n= 0 . pv° = constant, ie. p = constant When n= co, po® = constant orp!» = constant, ie. v = constant When n= 1 po = constant, ie, T = constant since pv/T = constant for a perfect gas. When n= 7 pe’ = constant, ie. reversible adiabatic This is illustrated on a p-v diagram in Fig. 3.12. Thus, state 1 to state A is constant pressure cooling (n = 0) state I to state B is isothermal compression (n = 1) state 1 to state C is reversible adiabatic compression (n = 7) state 1 to state D is constant volume heating (n = <0) 91 Reversible end Irreversible Processes Similarly, 1 to A’ is constant pressure heating; 1 to BY is isothermal expansion; 1 to C’ is reversible adiabatic expansion; 1 to D’ is constant volume cooling. Note that, since ; is always greater than unity, then process 1 to C must lie between processes | to B and | to D; similarly, process 1 to C’ must lie between processes | to B’ and | to D’. For a vapour a generalization such as the above is not possible. A vapour may undergo a process according to a law pr = constant. In this case, since the characteristic equation of state, pr = RT. does not apply to a vapour, then the process is not isothermal. Tables must be used to find the properties at the end states, making use of the fact that p,t, = pat’: Expansion of steam in a reciprocating engine is found to approximate to a hyperbolic expansion (pv = constant); such engines are rarely used nowadays. | 3.4 Reversible flow processes Although flow processes in practice are usually highly irreversible, itis sometimes convenient to assume the, a flow process is reversible in order to provide an ideal comparison. An coserver travelling with the flowing fluid would appear to see a change in tnermodynamic properties as in a non-flow process. For ex’ mple, ina rever:ible adiabatic process for a perfect gas, an observer travelling with the gas would appear to see a process pe? = constant taking place, but the'work inpst would not be given by —f p do, or by the change in internal energy as siven by equation (3.13), Some work is done by virtue of the forces acting between the moving gas and its surroundings. For example, for a reversible adiabatic flow process for a perfect gas, from the flow equation (1.10), for unit mass flow rate ct cP (n+G)+0+ w=(n,+2) Then since Q =0 W=(h,— Also, since the process is assumed to be reversible, then for a perfect gas, pv” = constant, This equation can be used to fix the end states. Note that even if the kinetic energy terms are negligibly small the work input in a reversible adiabatic flow process between two states is not equal to the work input in a reversible adiabatic non-flow process between the same states (given by equation (3.13) as*W =u; - uy). Example 3.8 A gas turbine receives gases from the combustion chamber at 7 bar and 650°C, with a velocity of 9 m/s. The gases leave the turbine at 1 bar with a velocity of 45 m/s, Assuming that the expansion is adiabatic and reversible in the ideal case, calculate the power output per unit mass flow rate. For the gases take y = 1.333 and c, = 1.11 kJ/kg K. Solution 3.5 3.5 Irreversible processes Using the flow equation for an adiabatic process [Link] (5S For a perfect gas from equation (2.18), h = c,T; therefore, We wife - n+(2 = To find T, use equation (3.21), th (ey . T \py , T, Gy" ie a(t 7 \i therefore 3 4/1333) tT _ 93 2 where T, = 650 +2 Hence substituting for unit mass flow rate 452 2x W = 1 x 1,11(567.7 — 923) + ( therefore W = —394.4 +097 = —393.4 kW ie. Power output per kilogram per second = 393.4 kW Note that in Example 3.8 the kinetic energy change is small compared with th enthalpy change. This is often the case in problems on flow processes, and th change in kinetic energy can sometimes be taken to be negligible. For a vapour undergoing a reversible adiabatic flow process the end stat is fixed by equating the initial and final entropies (see Ch. 4). Irreversible processes The criteria of réversibility are stated in section 1.4. The equations « sections 3.1, 3.2, and 33 can only be used when the process obeys the criter of reversibility to a close approximation. In processes in which a fluid is enclose in a cylinder behind a piston, friction effects can be assumed to be negligibl However, in order to satisfy criterion (c) in section 1.4 heat must never t transferred to or from the system through a finite temperature difference. Oni in an isothermal process is this conceivable, since in all other processes temperature of the system is continually changing during the process; in ord to satisfy criterion (c) the temperature of the cooling or heating medium extern Fig, 3.13 Two perfectly insulated interconnected vessels 94 to the system would be required to change correspondingly. Ideally a way of Achieving reversibility can be imagined, but in practice it cannot even be approached as_an_ approximation Nevertheless, if we accept inevitable irreversibilities in the surroundings, we can still have processes which are internally reversible. That is, the system undergoes @ process which can be reversed, but the surroundings undergo an irreversible change. Most processes occurring in a cylinder behind a piston can be assumed to be internally reversible to a close approximation, and the equations of sections 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 can be used where applicable. Certain processes cannot be assumed to be internally reversible, and the important cases will now be considered. Unresisted, or free, expansion ‘This process was mentioned in section 1.5 in order to show that in an irreversible process the work done is not given vy —{ p dv. Consider two vessels A and B, interconnected by a short pipe with a valve, and perfectly thermally insulated (sce Fig. 3.13). Initially let the vessel A be filled with a fluid at a certain pressure, and let B be completely evacuated. When the valve is opened the fluid in A will expand rapidly to fill both vessels A and B, The pressure finally will be lower than the initial pressure in vessel A. This is known as an unresisted expansion or a free expansion, The process is not reversible, since external work would have to be done to restore the fluid to its initial condition. The non-flow energy equation, (1.4), can be applied between the initial and final states, ie. Q+ Wau, uy Now in this process no work is done on or by the fluid, since the boundary of the system does not move, No heat flows to or from the fluid since the system is well lagged. The process is therefore adiabatic, but irreversible, ie uy =0 oF wan, In a free expansion thorefore the internal energy initially equals the internal energy finally. For a perfect gas, we have, from equation (2.14), u=oT ‘Therefore for a free expansion of a perfect gas Example 3.9 Solution Fig. 3.14 Irreversible 3.6 Irreversible processes That is, for a perfect gas undergo i i That is, ‘going a free expansion, the initial temperat is equal to the final temperature, =“ Air at 20 bar is initially contained in vessel A of Fig. 3.13, the volume of which can be assumed to be 1 m?, The valve is opened and the air expands to ill vessels A and B. Assuming that the vessels are of equal volume, calculate the final pressure of the air. For a perfect gas for a free expansion, T, = 7). Also from equation (2.6 p¥ = mRT, hence p, ¥; = pa¥ , a Now V, is the combined volumes of vessels A and B, ie. y= VytWyel+l=2m? and Y= 1m? Therefore we have v, Pa =P; X += 20 x $= 10 bar % ie, Final pressure = 10 bar . ‘The process is shown on a p-v diagram in Fig. 3.14. State 1's fixed at 20 bar and 1m? when the mass of gas is known; state 2 is fixed at 10 bar and 2m* for the same mass of gas. The process between these states is irreversible and must be drawn dotted. The points I and 2 lie on an isothermal line, but the process between 1 and 2, cannot be called isothermal, since the intermediate temperatures are not the same throughout the process. There 1s no work done during the process, and the area under the dotted line does not represent work done. Pressure/{bar) Throttling [A flow of fluid is said to be throttled when there is some restriction to the flow. ‘phen the velocities before and after ghe restriction are either equal or neglibly "mall, and when there is a negligible heat loss to the surroundings. The restriction to flow ean be a partly open valve, an orifice, oF any other sudden reduction jin the cross-section of the flow. . 95 4 , Reversible and Irreversible Processes Fig. 315 Throttling process Example 3.10 ‘An exaimple of throttling 1s shown in Fig. 3.15. The fluid, flovving steadily , along a well-lagged pipe, passes through an orifice a section XX. Since the pipe is well lagged it can be assumed that no heat flows to or from the fluid. The flow equation (1.10) can be applied between any two sections of the flow, 2 ; 2 ie, a(n +S) 6 W=n(i+ 2) Now since Q = 0, and W’= 0, then When the velocities C, and C2 are small, or when C, is approximately equal to C;, then the kinetic energy terms may be neglected. (Note that sections 1-1 and 2-2 can be chosen well upstream and well downstream of the disturbance to the flow, so that this latter assumption is justified.) Then h, = ha. Therefore for a throttling process, the enthalpy initially is equal to the enthalpy finally. The process is adiabatic, but is highly irreversible because of the eddying of the fluid round the orifice at X -X. Between sections 1-1 and X-X the enthalpy decreases and the kinetic energy increases as the fluid accelerates through the orifice. Between sections X-X and 2-2 the enthalpy increases as the kinetic energy is destroyed by fluid eddies. . For a perfect gas, from equation (2.18), h = c,T; therefore, pT =CpT, or Ty =T; For throttling of a perfect gas, therefore, the temperature initially equals the temperature finally. The process of throttling can be used to find the dryness fraction of steam. A sample of steam is drawn off the steam main, passed through a mechanical Separator, then through a throttle valve, and finally through a condenser; the water separated rom the mechanical separator and the water {rom the condenser are weighed and the dryness fraction calculated as shown in the following example. The dryness fraction of wet steam in a main is determined using a separating and throttling calorimeter. The pressure in the main is 5 bar; after throttling. the steam pressure and temperature are 1.01325 bar and 120°C; the water collected from the separator is at the rate of 0.5 kg/h, and that from the condenser at the rate of 9 kg/h. Making suitable assumptions, calculate the dryness fraction of the steam in the main, 3.6 Irreversible processes ’ Fig. 3.16 Processes on a p-v diagram for Example 3.10 Pressure/(bar) 1.01325 The enthalpy after throttling is Oblajhed by interpolating from steam tables, '/~ (120 — 100) (150 = 100) = 2716.4 kJ/kg . / For an adiabatic throttling process neglecting kinetic energy changes. hy = hs, ~ therefore using equation (2.2) hy = hy = Ina + Xahige hy = 2676 + x (2777 — 2676) therefore 2716.4 640 = Ti6A — 0” = 0985 “= F109 where hrg = 640 KS /kg, and hyp = 2109 kJ/kg, are read from saturation tables “ ihe Mass flow rate of water in the steam at state 2 is therefore given ty titgy = (I — Xa) X (mass flow rate of condensate) 2=(l-% = (1 — 0.985) x 9 = 0135 kg/h e stean sample from the main ‘al mass flow rate of water in the steam samp Therefore the rae separation, sas the mass f wae is give s separated, given as 0.5 kg/h. 0.635 kg/h tity, = 0.135 + 04 > ie.
