A Thermodynamics Derivative Reduction Problems

AI Thread Summary
A graduate student in a mechanical engineering thermodynamics class seeks additional practice problems on derivative reductions using Gibbs and Maxwell relations, as their textbook offers limited options. They express concern about the upcoming final exam and the need for more varied problems. Other users recommend resources from studylib.net, including specific links to relevant practice materials. The student appreciates the suggestions and finds them helpful. Accessing diverse practice problems is crucial for exam preparation in advanced thermodynamics.

Hi everyone,

I'm in a graduate level mechanical engineering thermodynamics class. We're working on derivative reductions using the gibbs and maxwell relations.

I was wondering if anyone has any good sources of practice problems that I could use. I've looked through my textbook and there are only a few different problems that I've already solved. I was hoping to get some extra practice with new problems given that they will likely come up on the final exam.

Thanks for the help!

I need to calculate the amount of water condensed from a DX cooling coil per hour given the size of the expansion coil (the total condensing surface area), the incoming air temperature, the amount of air flow from the fan, the BTU capacity of the compressor and the incoming air humidity. There are lots of condenser calculators around but they all need the air flow and incoming and outgoing humidity and then give a total volume of condensed water but I need more than that. The size of the...
Thread 'Why work is PdV and not (P+dP)dV in an isothermal process?'
Let's say we have a cylinder of volume V1 with a frictionless movable piston and some gas trapped inside with pressure P1 and temperature T1. On top of the piston lay some small pebbles that add weight and essentially create the pressure P1. Also the system is inside a reservoir of water that keeps its temperature constant at T1. The system is in equilibrium at V1, P1, T1. Now let's say i put another very small pebble on top of the piston (0,00001kg) and after some seconds the system...
