properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 4 of 109 W HY THIS CLASSNOTES Fluids are one of the three cornerstones of energy conversion systems together with cycles and equipment. Models of the thermodynamic properties of fluids are necessa ry to study properly energy conversion systems from both the cycle and the equipment perspectives . In this context , it is fundamental to understand when it is possible to apply one model depending upon the required accuracy. Specifically, a distinction bet ween ideal and real fluids and mixtures shall be considered. The scope of this class note is to provide the students of Energy Conversion with the knowledge and competence to understand and apply thermodynamic modelling of fluids . The methodology adopted here is based on a review of fundamental thermodynamic relations first for pure fluids, developed first of ideal pure fluids and then for real pure fluids. Similarly, fundamentals relations for solutions are only outlined and detailed f or ideal mixtures . The structure of the present document is as follows. • Chapter 1 introduces the topic of thermodynamic properties of fluids and their modelling • Ch apter 2 reviews the thermodynamic fundamental relations • Chapter 3 deals with the ideal gas model • Chapter 4 deals with the ideal liquid model • Chapter 5 deals with real fluid properties in the single -phase region • Chapter 6 deals with real fluid properties in the phase -change region • Chapter 7 deals with the real liquid model • Chapter 8 deals with solution and mixture properties Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 5 of 109 1 INTRODUCTION The thermodynamic state of a fluid in equilibrium can be described by a set of parameters called state variables . These state variables represent the effect of the behavior of atoms and m olecules at the microscopic scale (typical of the Kinetic theory of gases) on the macroscopic scal e (of Classical thermodynamic s). The approach here is investigating mathematically matter at the macroscopic scale, providing the relations of Classic thermodynamics, and analyzing qualitatively at the microscopic scale, recalling the main outcomes of the Kinetic theory of gases. A pure fluid is a fluid made of a single chemical component (or species); in contrast, solutions and mixtures are made of two or more species , where a mixtures is a solution in the gaseous phase. P ure fluid s and solution can exist in one or more phase s, where a phase is a quantity of matter that is homogeneous throughout in both physical structure and chemical composition. More phases can exist at equilibrium at one time; for instance, vapor -liquid equilibria are conditions in whic h a vapor phase and a liquid phase coexist. Vapor -liquid equilibria can be des cribed mathematically in two different manners: 1. direct approach , in which both vapor and liquid phases are describe d by an equation of state, introduces soon after; 2. indirect approach , in which only the vapor phase is described by an equation of state, while the liquid phase by activity coefficients. For a pure fluid , a thermodynamic state of equilibrium is completely defined when two independent state variables are k nown. For example, temperature of a stable equilibrium state can be calculated as a function of pressure and specific volume. The relation between these three state variables is called “volumetric Equation of State (EOS)” and can be expressed explicitly in pressure as: ⥍(⥗⏬⥝⏬⥁)= ╽❧ ⥗ = ⥍(⥁⏬⥝) (1.1) It is possible to derive any other state variable and fully characterize the properties of the fluid from this equation (or from any other Equation of State that relates three thermodynamic state variables) through differentiation and integration operations of the Equation of Sta te itself . The Equation of State can take on particularly simple analytical expressions in the case of ideal gases or ideal liquids , while in other cases its formulation may require a large number of terms. The choice of the Equation of State that models the properties of the fluid of interests most accurately is mainly a function of the fluid itself , its thermodynamic conditions and the desired accuracy . The most widely used fluids in the field of power generation plants are certainly water in steam power plants , air and exhaust gases in gas turbines. While air and - within certain limits - exhaust gases can be treated as ideal gases with results of reason able accuracy in most applications , in the case of water it is usually necessary to adopt formulations that refer to the real fluid behavior . Many other fluids, such as hydrocarbons, can b e used in specific applications; on top of these, if inverse cycles also are considered for refrigerant systems , the database becomes even broader. Since the se fluids cannot be considered ideal gases, the availability of accurate Equations of State is essential to model any process and to design, optimize and ultimately ma nufacture every single plant component with a good degree of confidence . Thus, the need arises to have a sufficiently precise calculation method for determining the thermodynamic properties of fluid s via an Equations of State able to describe the real flui d behavior. Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 6 of 109 In case of pure fluids, a real fluid property is calculated adding a residual property to the fluid property in the hypothetical ideal gas state . The residual property is sometimes called also departure property because it indicates the deviat ion from the ideal gas behavior. In their turn, also solution and mixture can be ideal and real. Ideal solution properties can be simply computed from the real fluid properties of the pure components making the solution. Ultimately, a real solution property is calculated adding the solution excess property to the solution property in the hypothetical ideal solution state. As a first example of the importance of real fluid properties , c onsider an ideal turbine that expands a fluid through an isentropic process from an initial state 0 (characterized by ⥁ⴿ and ⥗ⴿ) to a final state 1 (characterized by ⥗ⵀ and ⥚ⵀ). The work obt ainable via an adiabatic fluid machine , neglecting the kinetic and potential energ y terms , is: ⥞ = ⥏ⴿ(⥁ⴿ⏬⥗ⴿ)⽑ ⥏ⵀ(⥗ⵀ⏬⥚ⴿ(⥁ⴿ⏬⥗ⴿ)) (1.2) As shown in Section 3, in the case of ideal gas, enthalpy depends only on temperature. For a real fluid, enthalpy is instead a function of both temperature and pressure. Underestimating the dependency of enthalpy on pressure can lead in general to severe errors for some fluids in certain conditions . Therefore, an accurate calculation of the work obtainable from a fluid machine cannot disregard an accurate calculation of the thermodynamic properties of the working f luid . Likewise , when using sophisticated design methods for turbomachines based on fluid dynamics, adopt ing accurate thermodynamic properties to determine the velocity field of the fluid, the presence of supersonic flows, as well as other phenomena, is a crucial step for reliable results . The second example , regarding gas cycle s, highlight s the importance of an accurate calculation of the thermodynamic properties of the working fluid. Consider the regeneration in a Brayton closed cycle ope rating respectively with an ideal gas and a real fluid (cycles with helium, He, and carbon dioxide, CO 2, respectively in Fig. 1.1 left and right ). Fig. 1.1 - Closed gas cycle operating between the same extreme temperatures: in the Helium cycle (a) , the fluid can be considered an ideal gas at each point, but in the CO 2 cycle (b) the fluid close to the saturatio n dome shows important effects of real fluid . He CO 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 a) b) Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 7 of 109 In the cycle with helium ( Fig. 1.1a), which can be considered an ideal gas in these conditions because it operates at temperatures much higher than its critical temperature, an infinite surface regenerator would give rise to a reversible process , resulting in heat transfer under infinitesimal temperature differences , leading to ⥁ⵁ= ⥁ⵄ and ⥁ⵅ= ⥁ⵃ. On the contrary, in the CO 2 cycle (Fig. 1.1b) an ideal regeneration involves an irreversibility in heat transmission , hence ⥁ⵁ= ⥁ⵄ but ⥁ⵅ< ⥁ⵃ, because of the real fluid effect of pressure on the specific heat along the high pressure isobar, as explained later . In the following chapters , the equations for calculating the properties of t he ideal pure gases as well as ideal pure liquid are described ; then , the corrections due to the real fluid behavior are analyzed. Subsequently , the P rinciple of Corresponding States and a brief history of the evolution of the Equations of State is discussed , in addition to the theoretical description of the trend of the thermodynamic quantities in the ⥁ ⽑ ⥚ diagram . Ultimately, concepts for solutions of fluids are provided, focusing specifically on idea l mi xtures. Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 8 of 109 2 REVIEW OF THERMODYNAMICS FUNDAMENTAL RELATIONS This chapter deals with a review of the thermodynamics fundamental relations for the calculation of fluid properties. For a single -phase multicomponent homogeneous system in stable equilibrium , the internal energy ⥂ can be expressed as follows : ⥂ = ⥂(⥀⏬⥃⏬⪟) (2.1) which is c alled the fundamental relation in the energy form and where ⥀ is the entropy of the system, ⥃ is the volume and ⪟ is the vector of the number of moles of each component . By differentiating it: ⥋⥂ = (⧽⥂ ⧽⥀ ) ⷚ⏬ⷬ⻟ ⥋⥀ ⽐ (⧽⥂ ⧽⥃ ) ⏬ⷬ⻟ ⥋⥃ ⽐ (⧽⥂ ⧽⥕ⷧ ) ⏬ⷚ⏬ⷬ⻠⺺⻟ ⷧ ⥋⥕ⷧ (2.2) where ⥕ⷧ is the number of moles of the i-th component and in which the partial derivatives have a physical meaning: (⧽⥂ ⧽⥀ ) ⷚ⏬ⷬ⻟ ⠫ ⥁ (⊡⊒⊚⊝⊒⊟⊎⊡⊢⊟⊒) (2.3) ⽑ (⧽⥂ ⧽⥃ ) ⏬ⷬ⻟ ⠫ ⥗ (⊝⊟⊒⊠⊠⊢⊟⊒) (2.4) (⧽⥂ ⧽⥕ⷧ ) ⏬ⷚ⏬ⷬ⻠⺺⻟ ⠫ ⧯ⷧ (⊐⊕⊒⊚⊖⊐⊎⊙ ⊝⊜⊡⊒⊛⊡⊖⊎⊙) (2.5) Consequently, Eq. (2.2) can be rewritten as : ⥋⥂ = ⥁⥋⥀ ⽑ ⥗⥋⥃ ⽐ ⧯ⷧ ⷧ ⥋⥕ⷧ (2.6) which in the case of a closed -flow system turns to be : ⥋⥂ = ⥁⥋⥀ ⽑ ⥗⥋⥃ ⥁⥋⥀ = ⥋⥂ ⽐ ⥗⥋⥃ (2.7) Eq. (2.7) is called the Gibbs equation and defines the relations between states of stable equilibrium : evolving from one condition of stable equilibrium to another of stable equilibrium, the state variables (⥂, ⥀, ⥃) must satisfy the Gibbs equation. Otherwise, the final state is no longer of stable equilibrium. The same result can also be obtained by rearrangin g the energy balance of a closed -flow system following a reversible process . In fact, consider a cylinder -piston system in which a gas at temperature ⥁ and pressure ⥗ receives reversibly energy by heat interaction at constant temperature and expands moving the piston against an environment at same pressure (Fig. 2.1a). Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 9 of 109 Fig. 2.1 - Reference system formed by a frictionless piston in which both the expansion and the introduction of energy by heat interaction take place reversibly (a) and the case in which the expansion is not reversible (b) . The energy balance for the closed -flow system is: ⥋⤾ = ⥋⥂ ⽐ ⥋⥄ (2.8) where ⤾ is the energy transfer by heat interation (commonly said exchanged heat ) and ⥄ is the energy transfer by work interaction ( exchanged work ). Moreover, assuming a reversible process , entropy can be computed as : ⥋⥀ = ⥋⤾ ⥁ (2.9) while , under the reversibility assumption, the energy transfer by work interaction is : ⥋⥄ = ⥗⥋⥃ (2.10 ) Replacing Eqs. (2.9) and (2.10 ) in Eq. (2.8) and referring to a unit weight: ⥋⥜ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥗⥋⥝ (2.11 ) This relation may seem to be valid only along reversible transformations because of the way it has been derive d here . Its validity applies to the general case, as it relates ultimately change s in state quantities. This statement may also be proven by examining the terms of an irreversible transformation, considering a pressure inside the cylinder higher than the external one , ⥗ > ⥗ⷫⷠ . In this case, t he energy balance can thus be formulated as follows: ⧧⥘ = ⥋⥜ ⽐ ⧧⥞ = ⥋⥜ ⽐ ⥗ⷫⷠ ⥋⥝ (2.12 ) in which the work actually exchanged with the outside environment is expressed as the product of the external pressure , not internal! , by the volume increase. Furthermore, t he differential entropy for an irreversible transformation can be rewritten as: ⥋⥚ = ⧧⥘ ⥁ ⽐ ⥋⥚ ⷧⷰⷰ (2.13 ) which indicates that the change in entropy of the system comprises two terms: the first term takes into account the change in entropy due to the heat interaction , ⧧⥘ ⥁▯ ; the second term corresponds to the internal generation of entropy due to the irreversibility , ⥋⥚ ⷧⷰⷰ . Rearranging : Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 10 of 109 ⧧⥘ = ⥁(⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥋⥚ ⷧⷰⷰ ) (2.14 ) that replaced in (2.12 ) becomes : ⥁(⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥋⥚ ⷧⷰⷰ )= ⥋⥜ ⽐ ⥗ⷫⷠ ⥋⥝ (2.15 ) or : ⥋⥜ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽑ (⥁⥋⥚ ⷧⷰⷰ ⽐ ⥗ⷫⷠ ⥋⥝ ) (2.16 ) Now let u s calculate the entropy generation , ⥋⥚ ⷧⷰⷰ . The wasted work in the irreversible transformation (a class notes is dedicated to this topic, comprising irreversibility and wasted work) is the difference between the internal work of the expansion , ⥗⥋⥝ , and the work that the external environment can receive, ⥗⥋⥝ . In general, this difference will t ransform into kinetic energy of the particles of the fluid. In accordance with the fact that the transformation is irreversible, the kinetic energy degrades into internal energy. The dissipation leads to an increase in entropy given by: ⥋⥚ ⷧⷰⷰ = (⥗⥋⥝ ⽑ ⥗ⷫⷠ ⥋⥝ ) ⥁ (2.17 ) from which: ⥁⥋⥚ ⷧⷰⷰ = (⥗⥋⥝ ⽑ ⥗ⷫⷠ ⥋⥝ ) (2.18 ) that replaced in (2.16 ) still supplies the (2.11 ) whose overall validity is proven . Therefore, it can be considered a thermodynamic identity valid for a general case . ⥋⥜ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥗⥋⥝ (2.19 ) Let us introduce the thermodynamic state variable specific enthalpy , ⥏, and its differential, ⥋⥏: ⥏ = ⥜⽐ ⥗⥝ (2.20 ) ⥋⥏ = ⥋⥜ ⽐ ⥗⥋⥝ ⽐ ⥝⥋⥗ (2.21 ) Replacing in (2.11 ): ⥋⥏ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥗⥋⥝ ⽐ ⥗⥋⥝ ⽐ ⥝⥋⥗ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽐ ⥝⥋⥗ (2.22 ) Now it is possible to introduce the following definitions: ⥊ⷴ⠨ (⧽⥜ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ ⊠⊝⊒⊐⊖⊓⊖⊐ ⊕⊒⊎⊡ ⊎⊡ ⊐⊜⊛⊠⊡⊎⊛⊡ ⊣⊜⊙⊢⊚⊒ (2.23 ) ⥊ⷮ⠨ (⧽⥏ ⧽⥁ ) ⷮ ⊠⊝⊒⊐⊖⊓⊖⊐ ⊕⊒⊎⊡ ⊎⊡ ⊐⊜⊛⊠⊡⊎⊛⊡ ⊝⊟⊒⊠⊠⊢⊟⊒ (2.24 ) ⧤ⷮ⠨ ╾ ⥝(⧽⥝ ⧽⥁ ) ⷮ ⊖⊠⊜⊏⊎⊟⊖⊐ ⊒⊥⊝⊎⊛⊠⊖⊜⊛ ⊐⊜⊒⊓⊓⊖⊐⊖⊒⊛⊡ (2.25 ) ⥒ⷘ⠨ ⽑ ╾ ⥝(⧽⥝ ⧽⥗ ) ⷘ ⊖⊠⊜⊡⊕⊒⊟⊚⊎⊙ ⊐⊜⊚⊝⊟⊒⊠⊠⊖⊏⊖⊙⊖⊡⊦ ⊐⊜⊒⊓⊓⊖⊐⊖⊒⊛⊡ (2.26 ) Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 11 of 109 It is also possible to define two other state variables, i.e. the specific Helmholtz free energy ⥈ and the Gibbs free energy . ⥈ = ⥜⽑ ⥁⥚ (2.27 ) ⥎ = ⥏⽑ ⥁⥚ (2.28 ) Upon differenti ati ng , ⥈ and ⥎ become : ⥋⥈ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥗⥋⥝ ⽑ ⥁⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥚⥋⥁ = ⽑⥗⥋⥝ ⽑ ⥚⥋⥁ (2.29 ) ⥋⥎ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽐ ⥝⥋⥗ ⽑ ⥁⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥚⥋⥁ = ⥝⥋⥗ ⽑ ⥚⥋⥁ (2.30 ) which are thermodynamic identities that will be widely used in the following discussion. It is now possible to derive the first two Maxwell ’s relations , which relate the thermal behavior to the volumetric behavior of the fluid , from the derivatives of ⥈ and ⥎. Helmholtz free energy ⥈ = ⥜⽑ ⥁⥚ By deriving the expression of ⥈: ⥋⥈ = ⽑⥗⥋⥝ ⽑ ⥚⥋⥁ Hence, considering a transformation at constant volume : (⧽⥈ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ = ⽑⥚ (2.31 ) and a transformation at constant temperature : (⧽⥈ ⧽⥝ ) ⷘ = ⽑⥗ (2.32 ) Again deriving (2.31 ) and (2.32 ): ( ⧽ⵁ⥈ ⧽⥁⧽⥝ ) ⷴ⏬ⷘ = ⽑ (⧽⥚ ⧽⥝ ) ⷘ (2.33 ) ( ⧽ⵁ⥈ ⧽⥝⧽⥁ ) ⷘ⏬ⷴ = ⽑ (⧽⥗ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ (2.34 ) Since ⥈ is a state function, Schwarz’s theorem on the symmetry of second order derivatives applie s, making (2.33 ) equal to (2.34 ): (⧽⥚ ⧽⥝ ) ⷘ = (⧽⥗ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ (2.35 ) which is the first Maxwell ’s relation . Gibbs free energy ⥎ = ⥏⽑ ⥁⥚ By deriving the expression of ⤴: ⥋⥎ = ⥝⥋⥗ ⽑ ⥚⥋⥁ Hence, considering a transformation at constant pressure : (⧽⥎ ⧽⥁ ) ⷮ = ⽑⥚ (2.36 ) and a transformation at constant temperature : (⧽⥎ ⧽⥗ ) ⷘ = ⥝ (2.37 ) Again deriving (2.36 ) and (2.37 ): ( ⧽ⵁ⥎ ⧽⥁⧽⥗ ) ⷮ⏬ⷘ = ⽑ (⧽⥚ ⧽⥗ ) ⷘ (2.38 ) ( ⧽ⵁ⥎ ⧽⥗⧽⥁ ) ⷘ⏬ⷮ = (⧽⥝ ⧽⥁ ) ⷮ (2.39 ) Since ⥎ is a state function, Schwarz’s theorem on the symmetry of second order derivatives applie s, making (2.38 ) equal to (2.39 ): ⽑ (⧽⥚ ⧽⥗ ) ⷘ = (⧽⥝ ⧽⥁ ) ⷮ (2.40 ) which is the second Maxwell ’s relation . Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 12 of 109 These relations are of fundamental importance for the analysis of properties of real fluids . They are useful to get the general definition of the state fu nction differentials , such as specific volume, enthalpy and entropy as a function of measurable quantity differential ⥋⥁ , ⥋⥗ and volumetric behavior of the fluid. One practical example is shown in Appendix 10.1 . The differential of specific volume as a function of temperature and pressure, ⥝ = ⥝(⥁⏬⥗), is : ⥋⥝ = (⧽⥝ ⧽⥁ ) ⷮ ⥋⥁ ⽐ (⧽⥝ ⧽⥗ ) ⷘ ⥋⥗ (2.41 ) or: ⥋⥝ = ⥝⧤ⷮ⥋⥁ ⽑ ⥝⥒ⷘ⥋⥗ (2.42 ) From the formula of the differential of ⥝ – see Eq. (2.42 ) – by setting ⥋⥝ = ╽ it is possible to obtain: (⧽⥗ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ = ⧤ⷮ ⥒ⷘ (2.43 ) Moreover, the differential of entropy as a function of temperature and pressure, ⥚= ⥚(⥁⏬⥝), is : ⥋⥚ = (⧽⥚ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ ⥋⥁ ⽐ (⧽⥚ ⧽⥝ ) ⷘ ⥋⥝ (2.44 ) that substitut ed into the thermodynamic relation ⥋⥜ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽑ ⥗⥋⥝ gives : ⥋⥜ = ⥁(⧽⥚ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ ⥋⥁ ⽐ ⥁(⧽⥚ ⧽⥝ ) ⷘ ⥋⥝ ⽑ ⥗⥋⥝ = ⥁(⧽⥚ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ ⥋⥁ ⽐ [⥁(⧽⥚ ⧽⥝ ) ⷘ ⽑ ⥗]⥋⥝ (2.45 ) where by replacing the first Maxwell relation (⸬ⷱ ⸬ⷴ )ⷘ= (⸬ⷮ ⸬ⷘ )ⷴ and considering that ⥁(⸬ⷱ ⸬ⷘ )ⷴ= ⥊ⷴ: ⥋⥜ = ⥊ⷴ⥋⥁ ⽐ [⥁(⧽⥗ ⧽⥁ ) ⷴ ⽑ ⥗]⥋⥝ (2.46 ) Replacing Eq. (2.43 ) into Eq. (2.46 ): ⥋⥜ = ⥊ⷴ⥋⥁ ⽐ ⥝(⥁⧤ⷮ ⥒ⷘ ⽑ ⥗)(⧤ⷮ⥋⥁ ⽑ ⥒ⷘ⥋⥗ ) = [⥊ⷴ⽑ ⥝⧤ⷮ ⥒ⷘ (⥗⥒ⷘ⽑ ⥁⧤ⷮ)]⥋⥁ ⽐ ⥝(⥗⥒ⷘ⽑ ⥁⧤ⷮ)⥋⥗ (2.47 ) that is the differential of the state function ⥜(⥁⏬⥗). A similar procedure can be followed for enthalpy , ⥋⥏ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽐ ⥝⥋⥗ , differentiating ⥚(⥁⏬⥗): ⥋⥏ = ⥁(⧽⥚ ⧽⥁ ) ⷮ ⥋⥁ ⽐ [⥁(⧽⥚ ⧽⥗ ) ⷘ ⽐ ⥝]⥋⥗ (2.48 ) Thermodynamic properties of fluids - Energy Conversion 13 of 109 For the second Maxwell relation ⽑ (⸬ⷱ ⸬ⷮ )ⷘ= (⸬ⷴ ⸬ⷘ )ⷮ and considering that ⥁(⸬ⷱ ⸬ⷘ)ⷮ= ⥊⥗: ⥋⥏ = ⥊ⷮ⥋⥁ ⽐ [⽑⥁(⧽⥝ ⧽⥁ ) ⷮ ⽐ ⥝]⥋⥗ (2.49 ) Recalling that the isobaric expansion coefficient is ⧤ⷮ= ⵀ ⷴ(⧽⥝ ⧽⥁)⥗ leads to: ⥋⥏ = ⥊ⷮ⥋⥁ ⽐ ⥝[╾⽑ ⥁⧤ⷮ]⥋⥗ (2.50 ) that is the differential of enthalpy as function of temperature and pressure ⥏(⥁⏬⥗). From this, by recalling the thermodynamic Tds relation ⥋⥏ = ⥁⥋⥚ ⽐ ⥝⥋⥗ , a formulation for the differential of entropy ⥋⥚ is obtained: ⥋⥚ = ⥋⥏ ⥁ ⽑ ⥝⥋⥗ ⥁ = ⥊ⷮ⥋⥁ ⥁ ⽐ ⥝⥋⥗ ⥁ ⽑ ⥝⥁ ⑈ⷮ⥋⥗ ⥁ ⽑ ⥝⥋⥗ ⥁ = ⥊ⷮ⥋
