Concepts of System and Surroundings

Thermodynamics ke bunyadi concepts ko samajhne ke liye, sabse pehle system aur surroundings ki samajh zaroori hai. In dono concepts ke through hum energy aur matter ke exchange ko analyze karte hain, jo heat engines, refrigerators, aur chemical reactions ke liye fundamental hai.

1. Introduction

Thermodynamics ek aisi branch hai jo energy ke transformation aur matter ke behavior ko study karti hai. Energy ki transfer ko accurately describe karne ke liye, hum system aur surroundings ko define karte hain.

  • System: Woh specific portion of universe jisme hum interest rakhte hain aur jahan hum energy aur matter ke changes ko study karte hain.
  • Surroundings: Universe ka woh hissa jo system ke bahar hota hai aur jisse system interact kar sakta hai.

Yeh distinction scientific analysis ko organize karne ke liye zaroori hai.


2. Definition of System

System ek finite quantity of matter or region in space hota hai, jahan hum thermodynamic study focus karte hain. System ko boundary se alag kiya ja sakta hai.

2.1 Types of Systems

Thermodynamics me systems ko 3 main types me classify kiya ja sakta hai:

  1. Open System
    • Definition: Aisa system jo matter aur energy dono ko surroundings ke sath exchange kar sakta hai.
    • Example: A boiling pot of water without a lid. Steam escapes aur heat transfer hota hai.
    • Characteristics: Mass aur energy dono ka transfer allowed hai.
  2. Closed System
    • Definition: Aisa system jo sirf energy exchange karta hai, matter exchange nahi karta.
    • Example: Sealed steam radiator.
    • Characteristics: Sirf heat aur work ka transfer allowed hai, matter ka transfer nahi.
  3. Isolated System
    • Definition: Aisa system jo na matter aur na hi energy exchange karta hai.
    • Example: Perfectly insulated thermos bottle.
    • Characteristics: Total energy aur mass constant rehta hai.

2.2 Properties of a System

System ki analysis ke liye hume uske properties ka pata hona chahiye:

  1. Intensive Properties
    • Independent of mass.
    • Example: Temperature, Pressure, Density.
  2. Extensive Properties
    • Mass par depend karte hain.
    • Example: Volume, Mass, Total Energy.
  3. State of a System
    • System ka condition jo saari properties define karti hain.
    • Example: Agar ek gas ka temperature, pressure aur volume pata ho, to uska state determined hai.
  4. State Functions
    • Properties jo system ke current state se depend karti hain, path par nahi.
    • Example: Internal energy, Entropy, Enthalpy.

3. Definition of Surroundings

Surroundings woh sab kuch hain jo system ke bahar exist karta hai aur system ke saath interact kar sakta hai.

  • System aur surroundings ka interaction boundary ke through hota hai.
  • Surroundings ko bhi matter aur energy ke flow ke hisaab se describe kiya ja sakta hai.

3.1 Types of Surroundings Interaction

  1. Adiabatic Surroundings
    • Energy ka exchange sirf work ke through hota hai, heat transfer nahi.
  2. Diathermal Surroundings
    • Heat easily transfer hota hai system ke sath.
  3. Mechanical Surroundings
    • Work transfer me involve hota hai.

4. Boundary Between System and Surroundings

Boundary ek imaginary ya real surface hai jo system ko surroundings se separate karti hai.

4.1 Types of Boundaries

  1. Fixed Boundary (Rigid)
    • Motion nahi karta, volume constant rehta hai.
  2. Movable Boundary (Flexible)
    • Pressure aur volume change hone par move kar sakta hai.
  3. Real Boundary
    • Actual physical surface.
    • Example: Wall of a container.
  4. Imaginary Boundary
    • Visualization ke liye define kiya jata hai, physical structure nahi hota.

5. Interaction Between System and Surroundings

System aur surroundings ke beech interaction 2 forms me hota hai:

  1. Heat Transfer (Q)
    • Thermal energy ka exchange system aur surroundings ke beech.
    • Example: Pani garam karna ya cooling.
  2. Work Transfer (W)
    • Energy transfer due to force or displacement.
    • Example: Piston ke through gas expand ya compress karna.

Mathematical expression: ΔEsystem=Q−W\Delta E_{system} = Q – WΔEsystem​=Q−W

Yahan ΔEsystem\Delta E_{system}ΔEsystem​ system ke energy change ko represent karta hai.


6. Thermodynamic Universe

Thermodynamics me universe ko do parts me divide kiya jata hai:

  1. System
  2. Surroundings

Ye classification analysis ko simplify karta hai.

6.1 Schematic Representation

+--------------------------+
|       Surroundings       |
|  +-------------------+  |

+--------------------------+

Yahan, boundary system aur surroundings ko alag karta hai aur energy/matter exchange ko define karta hai.


7. Examples of System and Surroundings

  1. Boiling Water in Open Pot
    • System: Pani aur steam inside the pot
    • Surroundings: Kitchen, air, stove
  2. Sealed Soda Can
    • System: Soda inside can
    • Surroundings: External environment
  3. Car Engine
    • System: Combustion chamber
    • Surroundings: Radiator, air, fuel tank
  4. Human Body
    • System: Body tissues and organs
    • Surroundings: Air, food, water

8. Importance of System and Surroundings

System aur surroundings ka concept engineering aur science me critical hai:

  • Heat engines aur refrigerators ke design me
  • Chemical reaction analysis me
  • Biological processes ko study karne me

8.1 Energy Analysis

Energy analysis ke liye system ka definition essential hai.

  • Open system: Mass aur energy analysis possible
  • Closed system: Only energy analysis
  • Isolated system: Total energy constant

8.2 Control Volume Concept

Control Volume: Engineering me system ka practical definition.

  • Example: Turbine, Pump
  • System ka energy, mass aur momentum transfer control volume me study kiya jata hai.
