CHANGE IN

TEMPERATURE
Based on the First law thermodynamic,
quantity of heat is related to the
temperature change in system.
Temperature change can be calculated in
two different system:

I ) CLOSED SYSTEM
The temperature change, T result in the change
of the specific internal energy, because
specific internal energy depend on the
temperature.
The change of the specific internal energy is
denoted as
= 2 1 and related to the
temperature change from the T1 to T2 at the
constant volume and give an equation as shown
below
d = Cv (T) dT
=
Cv (T) dT

 Example
:

Calculate the heat required to raise 250kg of nitrous oxide from 25 OC to

150OC in a constant volume vessel. The constant volume heat capacity
of N2O in the temperature range is given by the equation
Cv (kJ/kg. OC) = 0.855+9.42 x 10-4 T
Where T is in OC

Solution
(kJ/kg) = (kJ/kg. OC) dT
=[0.855T]+ [9.42 x 10-4 T2/2]
=106.88 + 10.30
=117.18kJ/kg
The energy balance for this closed system is
Q= U = m (kg) x (kJ/kg) = (250kg) (117.18kJ/kg) =
29295kJ

II ) OPEN SYSTEM
The temperature change, T also result in the change
of enthalpy, because enthalpy, also depend on
the temperature.
Change in specific enthalpy is denoted as and
resulting in increasing of the temperature at the
constant pressure.

Change in the specific enthalpy is denoted as

= 2-1 for a temperature change from T1
to T2 at the constant pressure and give and
equation:
d = CP (T) dT
=
CP (T) dT
