Answer all questions in Part A. Answer any one question from each unit in Part B.

Part A

125 marks
a

What are the limitations of first law of thermodynamics?

2 marks

Answer

The first law of thermodynamics does not specify the direction of a process, nor does it provide information on whether a process is physically possible, as it only accounts for energy conservation.

b

What do you mean by isentropic compressibility?

3 marks

Answer

Isentropic compressibility is the fractional change in volume of a fluid per unit change in pressure during an isentropic process. It is defined as

τ = (1/v) (∂v/∂p)s
, representing the fluid's resistance to compression under constant entropy conditions.

c

For a convergent nozzle, show the variation of mass flow rate for different values of p/p0.
