Energy Transfer By Heat, Work, and Mass
Cengel & Boles, Chapter 3
ME 152 2
Energy Transfer
• Energy transfer to/from closed systems– Heat (Q)– Work (W)
• Energy transfer to/from open systems (control volumes)– Heat (Q)– Work (W)– Mass flow )( m
ME 152 3
Heat
• Heat (Q) is the transfer of energy due to a temperature difference– a system w/o heat transfer is an
adiabatic system– SI units: kJ
• Heat rate, , (kJ/s or kW)
• Heat per unit mass, q = Q/m
• Sign convention:– Q > 0: heat transferred to system from
surroundings– Q < 0: heat transferred from system to
surroundings
Q
ME 152 4
Heat Transfer Modes
• Conduction– transfer of heat through a material due
to random molecular or atomic motion; most important in solids
• Radiation– transfer of heat due to emission of
electromagnetic waves, usually between surfaces separated by a gas or vacuum
• Convection– transfer of heat between a solid surface
and fluid due to combined mechanisms of i) fluid conduction at surface; ii) fluid flow within boundary layer
ME 152 5
Conduction Heat Transfer
• Fourier’s law of conduction:

Convection Heat Transfer
• Newton’s law of “cooling”, or convection:

ME 152 7
Radiation Heat Transfer
• Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation (between a small surface A of emissivity and large surroundings):

ME 152 8
Work• Work (W) is the energy transfer
associated with a force acting through a distance:
• Work rate or power
• Work per unit mass, w = W/m
• Sign convention– W > 0: work done by system on
surroundings– W < 0: work done on system by
surroundings

Moving Boundary Work, cont.• Special cases:
1) if V = constant, Wb = 0
2) if P = constant, Wb = P(V2-V1)
3) if PVn = constant (known as a polytropic process),

Conservation of Mass
• “Mass can neither be created nor destroyed” – mass and energy can be converted to
each other according to Einstein’s E=mc2, but this effect is negligible except for nuclear reactions)
• For closed systems, this principle imposes m = constant since mass cannot cross the system boundary
• For control volumes, the mass entering and leaving the system may be different and must be accounted for
ME 152 18
Mass and VolumeFlow Rates
• Mass flow rate: fluid mass conveyed per unit time [kg/s]
where Vn = velocity normal to area [m/s]
= fluid density [kg/m3] A = cross-sectional area [m2]

Conservation of Mass Principle - Control Volume• Net mass transfer during a process is
equal to the net change in total mass of the system during that process
where i = inlet, e = exit, 1 = initial state, 2 = final state

• In fluid mechanics, this is often referred to as the continuity equation

Total Energy of a Flowing Fluid
• A flowing fluid contains internal, kinetic, and potential energies:
• Fluid entering or leaving a control volume has an additional form of energy known as flow energy, which represents the work required to “push” the fluid across a boundary:
