An energy analysis of the processes of obtaining and using artificial cold in chemical technology is presented. The most well-known methods of obtaining and applying the cooling effect are considered: adiabatic expansion of vapor and gaseous bodies in expanders, throttling. Special attention is paid to the effect of object deviation from the ideal gas model.

Abstract In-cylinder temperature is a critical quantity for modeling and understanding combustion dynamics in internal combustion engines (ICEs). It is difficult to measure in small, two-stroke engines due to high operational speeds and limited space to install instrumentation. Optical access was established in a 55-cm3 displacement two-stroke engine using M4 bolts as carriers for sapphire rods to establish a 1.5-mm diameter optical path through the combustion chamber. Temperature laser absorption spectroscopy was successfully used to measure time varying in-cylinder temperature clocked to the piston position with a resolution of 3.6 crank angle degrees (CAD) at 6000 rpm. The resulting temperature profiles clearly showed the traverse of the flame front and were qualitatively consistent with in-cylinder pressure, engine speed, and delivery ratio. The temperature measurements were compared to aggregate in-cylinder temperatures calculated using the ideal gas model using measured in-cylinder pressure and trapped mass calculated at exact port closure as inputs. The calculation was sensitive to the trapped mass determination, and the results show that using the ideal gas model for in-cylinder temperature calculations in heat flux models may fail to capture trends in actual in-cylinder temperature with changing engine operating conditions.

This chapter brings together, and builds on, the results from previous chapters to provide a succinct, and comprehensive, summary of all key relationships relating to ideal gases, including the heat and work associated with isothermal, adiabatic, isochoric and isobaric changes, and the properties of an ideal gas’s heat capacities at constant volume and constant pressure. The chapter also has two ‘case studies’ which use the ideal gas equations in broader, and more real, contexts, so showing how the equations can be used to tackle, successfully, more extensive systems. The first ‘case study’ is the Carnot cycle, and so covers all the fundamentals required for the proof of the existence of entropy as a state function; the second ‘case study’ is the ‘thermodynamic pendulum’ – a system in which a piston in an enclosed cylinder oscillates to and fro like a pendulum under gravity, in both the absence, and presence, of friction.

A new model for the prediction of caloric properties of moist air and combustion gases has been developed. The model very accurately predicts ideal gas caloric properties of undissociated gas mixtures at temperatures from 200 K to 3300 K. In addition, a simple model has been developed to account for caloric effects of dissociation at temperatures up to 2000 K. As a part of the project, scientific equations for the ideal gas isobaric heat capacity of the individual combustion gas components have been established. Based on this reference, an assessment and comparison of the new model with the most common technical models have been carried out. Results of the simplified dissociation model are compared to the results of complex chemical equilibrium programs. To mark out the limits of the ideal gas hypothesis, some sample calculations are given, which compare results of the new ideal gas model to results from sophisticated real gas models.

The condition for maximum specific work from a gas-turbine engine operated on a Joule cycle is generalized to ideal gases from the well-known result obtained by using a perfect gas. An obvious corollary is shown to be the principal theorem, when the working substance is an ideal gas with specific heat capacities varying with temperature, that the turbine outlet and compressor outlet temperatures are equal. Two additional corollaries are shown to hold in general. A simple study shows that the optimum condition point is not much affected by real departures from reversible behaviour. The condition for which a regenerative heat exchanger is then desirable is found. The results are generalized to any gas for which the enthalpy is a function of temperature only.

By application of the nonextensive statistics to the ideal gas model, we establish a nonextensive gas model. If we regard the nonextensive gas as a real gas, we can use the nonextensive parameter q ∈ ℝ in Tsallis statistics to describe Joule coefficient, Joule–Thomson coefficient, second virial coefficient and etc. We also derive an expression, with a multiplier T1-q, of the heat capacity of the nonextensive gas. We can prove that in the quasi-equilibrium system there is 1 - q > 0, 2 so the heat capacity still vanishes if temperature tends to zero, just as that in Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics.

Abstract Efficient processes with organic fluids are becoming increasingly important. The high tech fluid Novec™ is such an organic fluid and is used, for example, as a coolant for highperformance electronics, low-temperature heat transfer applications, cooling of automotive batteries, just to mention a few. Thus, efficient designed fans for the transport of organic fluids are becoming more and more important in the process engineering. CFD-simulations are nowadays integral part of the design and optimization process of fans. For air at the most usual application conditions, i.e. no extreme temperatures or pressures, the ideal gas model is in good agreement with the real gas approach. In the present study, this real gas approach for organic fluids have been investigated with CFD methods and, the deviation from the ideal gas model has been analyzed. For this purpose, a simulation model of a centrifugal fan with volute has been designed as a test case. First, the ideal gas model approach has been compared with the real gas approach model of Peng-Robinson for air using the commercial solver ANSYS CFX. Thereafter, the same comparison has been performed using the organic fluid Novec™. After a detailed grid study, the entire fan characteristics, i.e. the design point and the off-design points, have been simulated and evaluated for each fluid (air and Novec™) and gas model (ideal gas and Peng-Robinson real gas). The steady state simulations of the centrifugal fan have been performed using the Frozen Rotor model. The simulation results have been compared, discussed and presented in detail.

The ideal gas (IG) model is probably the most well-known gas models in engineering thermodynamics. In this paper, we extend the IG model into an ideal gas equilibrium (IGE model) mixture model by incorporating chemical equilibrium calculations as part of the state evaluation. Through a simple graphical interface, users can set the atomic composition of a gas mixture. We have integrated this model into a thermodynamic web portal TEST (http://thermofluids.sdsu.edu/) that contains Java applets for various models for properties of pure substances. In the state panel of the IGE model, the known thermodynamic properties are entered. For a given pressure and temperature, the mixture's Gibbs function is minimized subject to atomic constraints and the equilibrium composition along with thermodynamic properties of the mixture are calculated and displayed. What is unique about this approach is that equilibrium computations are performed in the background, without requiring any major change in the familiar user interface used in other state daemons. Properties calculated by this equilibrium state daemon are compared with results from other established applications such as NASA CEA and STANJAN. Also, two different algorithms, an iterative approach and a direct approach based on minimizing different thermodynamic functions in different situation, are compared.
