Extensive Intensive Properties

Inexact and Exact Differentials

Path and Point Functions

 Extensive & Intensive Properties
Conservation of Mass : Mass, M, of a system is always constant

=0

Newtons Second Law : Sum of all external forces acting on a system is equal to time rate of
change of momentum of the system

Angular Momentum Principle : Rate of change of angular momentum is sum of all torques
acting on the system

=

Laws of Thermodynamics : Law of energy conservation and second law (entropy)

Take Away Point : The laws talk about rate of change of an extensive property :
mass, momentum, angular momentum, energy and entropy
 Extensive & Intensive Properties
Question : Can we have an equation which relates any arbitrary extensive property
to its intensive property?
Reynolds Transport Theorem

= + .

system in the control control surface

 Extensive & Intensive Properties
For every extensive property N, we can have corresponding intensive
property as :

N = M, = 1
N = , =
N = , = x
N = E, = e
N = S, =

 Inexact and Exact Differentials

Definition : If z = z(x,y)

Then,

= +

M N Not dependent on path

Dependent only on points
