THERMODYNAMIC PROCESSES
Different Processes
Isobaric
Isometric
Isothermal
T = 0 but Q 0
Adiabatic
T 0 but Q = 0
Cyclic
If clockwise heat engine If counterclockwise heat pump
THERMODYNAMIC CYCLES
Pressure-Volume
Temperature-Entropy
Real Cycles
There are no ideal cycles Irreversible systems, losses of heat
Types of Cycles
Heat Engine Rankine Gas Power Systems Brayton Internal Combustion Engines Otto, Diesel,Stirling, Atckison Refrigeration
Heat Pump
Air Conditioning
HEAT ENGINE
Heat Engines
Converts thermal energy (heat) to mechanical output (work) The working fluids are gases and liquids. Phase change cycles The engine converts the working fluid from a gas to a liquid. Rankine Regenerative Gas cycles

Examples
J85 GE unit
A-37 Dragonfly
Combined Cycle
Combining Rankine and Brayton cycles
INTERNAL COMBUSTION
Otto engine
Gasoline vehicles External ignition Octane rating- measure of the resistance of gasoline and other fuels to detonate at constant volume. The higher the value, the slower the fuel burns
Diesel engine
Diesel cars no external ignition highest efficiency due to compression ration
Stirling Cycle
Similar to Otto cycle replace adiabatic per isothermals Used in Micro CHP
Atkison Cycle
four-stroke cycle to occur in a single turn of the crankshaft designed to bypass patents covering the existing Otto cycle engines
Heat Pump
Can pump heat in two directions reversing valve
Air Conditioning
Refrigerator + resistance Heat pump
