  • In this video, we define and discuss enthalpy, which is the sum of the internal energy and the product of the pressure and volume associated with a particular thermochemical process. Under constant pressure conditions, the change in enthalpy of a system is equivalent to the heat absorbed or released by that system.

      I gotta say, as an HVAC tech working in the field trying to get a better understanding of enthalpy, you saying pressure is generally constant and work doesn't matter made this almost irrelevant to the real world application. This seems like a way to calculate how much an uninsulated window heats a house. Very frustrating.

    Ben, congrats, this is the most clear explanation about enthalpy I have even seen. I am a chemical engineer and people in my field just take for granted the word enthalpy but most of them do not understand the real concept (including me until today).

    Good explanation!
    The only thing that bugs me is the capital and lower case letters.
    I learned that capitals are total values and lower case letters are "per mass".
    Which means that the q and w should be capital or all the others lower case.

    What is the meaning of Change in Enthalpy when the pressure is not constant? In some problems deltaH was given directly by n×cp×deltaT even when the process was adiabatic and pressure varied

    • @carultch
      @carultch Рік тому

      Enthalpy is a state function, that doesn't depend on the path taken. You can heat the gas at constant pressure to give it its full change in enthalpy, and then take an isothermal process to the final condition. Isothermal processes with an ideal gas have no change in enthalpy. This will have exactly the same change in enthalpy, as if you take a process with varying pressure. The heat and work will be different, but the change in enthalpy will not.
      The change in enthalpy is still useful for such a process. You see this parameter used, in turbines and compressors, where the process ideally is adiabatic. The rate of work done on the gas compressing it (or by the gas expanding it in a turbine) equals the mass flow rate times the change in enthalpy. Since it is an open system process, rather than a closed system process, we need to account for energy through enthalpy, rather than internal energy.

    so what does the steam table value gives us mean? Say at 300C and 5bar pressure, the enthalpy value of water/steam is 2534kJ/kg (NOT ACTUAL VALUE). So what is this value? Does it say if we raise the temperature of 1kg liquid at a constant pressure of 5 bar from 0C to 300C, we will need 2534kJ ??

    • @BensChemVideos
      @BensChemVideos  3 роки тому

      I don't understand the question. Could you rephrase it?

    • @carultch
      @carultch Рік тому

      The datum at which enthalpy is defined as zero, is arbitrary. You need to use steam tables with the same reference point. It's common to define it at zero at a point such as 0C and saturated liquid. Refrigeration tables define it at zero at -40C and saturated liquid.
      It is only difference between enthalpy values in steam tables that means anything. And an application of this, is finding the power produced expanding the steam in a turbine.

    Why is change in enthalpy equal to q+w-w when w = -p delta V? Wouldn't it just be change in enthalpy is equal to q+w(-p delta V)?

    • @BensChemVideos
      @BensChemVideos  17 днів тому

      @@daphnec4016 I think the video explains it better than I could in a comment, but I'll give it a shot.
      DeltaH is equal to deltaE + P * deltaV
      If deltaE is equal to q + w (first law), then delta H is equal to q + w + P*deltaV.
      If w = -P*deltaV, then POSITIVE P*DeltaV is equal to -w
      Substituting -w in place of the P*deltaV term in the enthalpy equation gives...
      DeltaH = q + w - w
      The w's cancel, and we're left with q.
