Thermodynamics Processes

Thermodynamics Processes are the processes that take place when a system changes its thermodynamic state. To know more about System and Thermodynamics State view my previous post on Thermodynamics . #Types of Thermodynamics processes 1. Cyclic Process - When the system undergoes a thermodynamic process in which final and initial state of a system are identical then that process is called a cyclic process.  In these processes, a system can undergo energy transfer with the surrounding because it can follow different paths to attain the same thermodynamic state. 2. Reversible Process - A process which can be reversed to its initial state by following the same path which it followed to reach its final state is known as Reversible Process.   OR A process that can be reversed to its initial state without affecting the system and surrounding is known as Reversible Process. 3. Irreversible Process - A Process which that cannot be reversed to its initial without aff

Thermodynamics

Thermodynamics is a science in which we learn how thermal energy is flowing and transforming into other forms of energy. It also tells us whether this flow or transformation is feasible or not.     OR  In thermodynamics , we learn about energy interacts between system and surrounding . Now you are wondering about the term system and surrounding . Let's learn them. System -   A space or region which is under consideration for analysis or on which we do the analysis. Surrounding - Rest of the space or region other than the system. Now there must be something which separate system and surrounding and that thing is the boundary . Boundary - As I already described a boundary is something that separates system and surrounding. It can be real or imaginary. NOTE -  The combination of system, surrounding and the boundary is called Universe . # Types Of Boundary Rigid Boundary Movable Boundary Rigid Boundary -  It is a type of boundary whi
