Short Answer

How do heat transfer and internal energy differ? In particular, which can be stored as such in a system and which cannot?

Due to the temperature variance, heat transfer is a procedure where the heat energy is transmitted from one system to another system. Where as internal energy is the energy stored.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

TABLE OF CONTENTS :
TABLE OF CONTENTS

Internal energy is related to the kinetic and potential energy of the system.

· Internal energy is the energy stored.

· Internal energy for an ideal system is dependent only on the temperature of the system i.e. when the temperature increases energy also increases.

· The unit of internal energy is Joule (J)

Whereas in heat transfer

· The transmission of heat energy from one system to another system due to temperature difference is called as heat transfer.

· Variance in temperature leads to energy transmission from a hot body to a cold body.

· When the two systems reach at the same temperature, the system are said to be in thermal equilibrium.

· The unit of heat transfer is Joule.

With 2.56×106 J of heat transfer into this engine, a given cyclical heat engine can do only role="math" localid="1668687707360" 1.50×105 J of work (a) What is the engine’s efficiency (b) How much heat transfer to the environment takes place.

Find the increase in entropy of 1.00 kg of liquid nitrogen that starts at its boiling temperature, boils, and warms to 20.0 º C at constant pressure.

Why do refrigerators, air conditioners, and heat pumps operate most cost-effectively for cycles with a small difference between Th and Tc? (Note that the temperatures of the cycle employed are crucial to its COP.)

Think about the drinking bird at the beginning of this section (Figure 15.21). Although the bird enjoys the theoretical maximum efficiency possible, if left to its own devices over time, the bird will cease “drinking.” What are some of the dissipative processes that might cause the bird’s motion to cease?

Show that the coefficients of performance of refrigerators and heat pumps are related by \({\bf{CO}}{{\bf{P}}_{{\bf{ref}}}} = {\bf{CO}}{{\bf{P}}_{{\bf{hp}}}} - {\bf{1}}\).

Start with the definitions of the \({\bf{COP}}\) s and the conservation of energy relationship between \({{\bf{Q}}_{\bf{h}}}\), \({{\bf{Q}}_{\bf{c}}}\), and \({\bf{W}}\).
