Thermodynamics cTopic Thermodynamic equations Equations In thermodynamics , Bridgman s thermodynamic equations are a basic set of thermodynamic equations, derived using a method of generating a large number of thermodynamic identities involving a number of thermodynamic quantities. The equations are named after the American physicist Percy Williams Bridgman . See also the exact differential article for general differential relationships . The extensive variables of the system are fundamental. Only the entropy S , the volume thermodynamics volume V and the four most common thermodynamic potentials will be considered. The four most common thermodynamic potentials are Internal energy U Enthalpy H Helmholtz free energy A Gibbs free energy G The first derivatives of the internal energy with respect to its extensive natural variables S and V yields the intensive parameters of the system The pressure P and the temperature T . For a simple system in which the particle number s are constant, the second derivatives of the thermodynamic potentials can all be expressed in terms of only three material properties thermodynamics material properties Heat capacity heat capacity constant pressure C sub P sub Thermal expansion Coefficient of thermal expansion Compressibility Isothermal compressibility sub T sub Bridgman s equations are a series of relationships between all of the above quantities.

Refimprove date September 2009 Thermodynamic pump testing is a form of pump testing where only the temperature rise and power consumed need to be measured to find the efficiency of a pump. This is measured by means of temperature and pressure probes fitted to tapping points on the pump s inlet and outlet.

When calculating pump efficiency, highly accurate measuring equipment should be used to get the most accurate reading, resulting in maximum efficiency. For example, the temperature rise is very small only hundredths of a kelvin , so very sensitive, stable thermocouple s must be used to accurately measure the rise. Properly installed and maintained pumps for water can be around 70 90 efficient, while less cared for pumps can be less efficient due to wear on the impeller and general back leakage through over large clearances.

This is with the caveat that redox scales are not absolute and thus it is important that all electrons are evaluated in redox pairs.

Thermodynamics cTopic Thermodynamic system Systems In thermodynamics , a quasistatic process is a thermodynamicprocess that happens infinitely slowly. However, it is very important of note that no real process is quasistatic. Therefore in practice, such processes can only be approximated by performing them infinitesimally slowly.

Any reversible process is necessarily a quasistatic one. However, some quasistatic processes are irreversible, if there is heat flowing in or out of the system or if entropy is being created in some other way.
