Entropy Change

Entropy Change
Property diagrams (T-s and h-s diagrams)

From the definition of the entropy, it is known that Q=TdS during
a reversible process.
Hence the total heat transfer during such a process is given by
Qreversible = TdS
Therefore, it is useful to consider the T-S diagram for a reversible

process involving heat transfer
On a T-S diagram, the area under the

process curve represents the heat transfer
for a reversible process.
Example
Show a Carnot cycle on a T-S diagram and identify the heat transfer at both
the high and low temperatures, and the work output from the cycle.

analyzing steady-flow devices such as turbines,

TdS (Gibbs) Equations
Since, the area under the T-s line is equal to the heat transfer for a reversible
process, it would be useful to have a relationship between Temperature and
Entropy to obtain the heat transfer,T.
Such a relationship exists for a closed system containing a pure,
compressible substance undergoing a reversible process
dU = Qrev - Wrev = TdS - PdV
=> TdS = dU + PdV or
Tds = du + pdv ( per unit mass)
This is the well-known Gibbs equation
Alternatively, eliminate du by using the definition of enthalpy, h = u + pv

=> dh = du + pdv + vdp, => du + pdv = dh vdp
TdS
Tds = du + pdv
Tds = dh vdp
Comments Regarding theTdS Equations

Equations relate the entropy change of a system to other
properties, such as enthalpy (h), internal energy (u), pressure
and volume.
Hence, even though T-ds relations were derived for a
reversible process, they are valid for any process, reversible
or irreversible.
They are applicable for closed or open systems.
They are valid for all pure substances, single or multi-phase.
Example Application of Tds relations
Consider steam undergoing a phase transition from liquid to vapor at a

constant temperature of 20C. Determine the entropy change s fg=sg-sf
using the Gibbs equations and compare the value to that read directly
from the thermodynamic table.

From table A-4:
T=20C, P = 2.338 kPa, vf = 0.001002(m3/kg), vg=57.79(m3/kg),
uf=83.9(kJ/kg), ug=2402.9(kJ/kg)
Substituting into the Tds relation:
sfg= (1/293)(2402.9-83.9) + (2.338/293)(57.79-0.001002) = 8.375(kJ/kg K)

Compares favorably with the tabulated value sfg=8.3715(kJ/kg K)
Entropy Change of an Incompressible Substance (YAC:6-8)
For most liquids and all solids, the density does not change
appreciably as pressure changes, hence dv 0.
Gibbs equation states that Tds = du+pdv
Tds = du where du = CdT, for an incompressible substance and
Cp=Cv=C is a function of temperature only.
Therefore, ds = du/T = C dT/T
Integrate to determine the entropy change during a process

where Cavg is the averaged specific heat of the substance

Note: According to the above equation, an isothermal process for a pure
incompressible substance is isentropic.
Specific heats for some common liquids and solids can be found in
thermodynamic tables such as Table A-14 to A-18
Example Entropy Change of Incomp. Substances

A 1-kg metal bar, initially at 1000 K, is removed from an oven and quenched by
immersing in a closed tank containing 20 kg of water, initially at 300 K.
Assume both substances are incompressible and C water= 4(kJ/kg K), Cmetal =
0.4(kJ/kg K). Neglect heat transfer between the tank and its surroundings.
(a) Determine the final temperature of the metal bar, (b) entropy generation

Entropy Change of Ideal Gases Special Cases

The dependence of specific heats on temperature makes the integration more complex.
However, for certain cases, one can make simplifying assumptions.
Case 1: If specific heats are assumed constant, integration is simplified:

s2 s1 cP ln( ) R ln( )

Note: The above is strictly true for monatomic gases, e.g.He, Ar
It is fairly accurate if the temperature difference is small.
Case 2: Calculate the specific heat at an average temperature, Tavg, and assume
it to be constant. This also allows the specific heat to be taken out of the integral
Note:
This approximation is generally fairly accurate if the temperature
difference is not too large, usually good if T < few hundred degrees.
Strictly speaking, one should look at the temp. dependence of specific heats for
the particular substance to evaluate the validity of this approximation.
Isentropic Processes for Ideal Gases
