Introduction to Process Technology Unit 4 Basic Physics
Objectives • TLW understand physical and mechanical systems and related careers: (TEKS 9.A. - 9.D) • Describe application of physical and mechanical systems • Describe career oportunities • Apply design concepts • Identify emerging issues with these systems
Today’s Agenda • What is Physics? • Properties and Structure of Matter • Temperature Transfer • Temperature and Evaporation • Physics Laws • Fluid Flow
What is Physics? • Physics is the study of force on matter and energy • Matter – something that has mass and volume • Energy – anything that causes matter to change, but does not have properties of matter
Why Physics is Important to Proc Techs • Explains the basic principles of the equipment they use on a day-to-day basis. Examples – • Allows them to understand the processes used to convert raw products to end products
Why Physics is Important to Proc Techs • Allows them to understand how to troubleshoot the process or to identify a problem and then solve the problem • Allows them to understand how the process affects other processes downstream
Conservation of Matter • Matter cannot be created or destroyed; only changed • Matter is considered to be indestructible
Conservation of Energy • Energy cannot be created or destroyed; only changed • Energy is considered to be indestructible
States of Energy • Potential – energy in a stored state • Kinetic – energy in an active state (energy of motion or velocity)
Structure of Matter • Atoms – smallest unit of an element • Protons • Neutrons • Electrons • Molecule – substance comprised of 2 or more atoms
Structure of Matter (Continued) • Atomic Number • Atomic Weight
Matter and its States • Solids • Liquids • Gases & Vapors • Plasma
Extensive Properties of Matter • Mass • Weight • Volume • Length
Intensive Properties of Matter • Density • Specific Gravity • Buoyancy • Viscosity
Intensive Properties of Matter • Inertia • Force • Pressure
Intensive Properties of Matter • Elasticity • Speed / Velocity • Friction
Heat Transfer • British Thermal Unit (BTU) – English System • Calorie – Metric System
Heat Transfer • Conduction • Convection • Radiation
Heat Transfer • Specific Heat • Latent Heat • Sensible Heat • Superheated
Temperature and State Changes • Temperature • Boiling • Evaporation • Melting
Boiling Point • The temperature of a liquid when its vapor pressure = the surrounding pressure • Vapor pressure • A measure of a liquid’s volatility and tendency to form a vapor • A function of the physical and chemical properties of the liquid
Relationship of Boiling Point/vapor pressure/ surrounding pressure • Liquids w/ High VP – Low BP • Liquids w/ Low VP – High BP • As surrounding Pressure increases, then BP of liquid increases
Temperature and State Changes • Condensing • Freezing • Sublimation
Temperature Scales • Fahrenheit - oF • Celsius - oC • Kelvin - oK = oC + 273 • Rankine - oR = oF + 460
Pressure Gauge Measurement • Gauge Pressure (psig) – pressure measured with respect to sea level. Any pressure above atmospheric. • Pressure due to atmosphere = 14.7 PSIA • PSIG = PSIA - 14.7 • Absolute Pressure (psia) = Gauge pressure + atmospheric • PSIG + 14.7 • Vacuum Pressure (psiv) < 14.7
Atmospheric pressure – Conversion factors • 14.7 psi • 760 mm Hg • 29.92 in Hg
Vapor Pressure – higher bond strength, the lower the vapor pressure • Boiling Point – lower the vapor pressure, higher the boiling point. Increase the pressure, increase the boiling point • Melting Point • Freezing Point
To the Textbook • Chapter 10 – Basic Physics (pages 130 – 155) • Read pages 130 – 136 • Answer questions 1 – 14 on pages 152 - 154
Physics Laws • Boyle’ Law • Charles’ Law • Gay-Lussac’s Law • General (Ideal) Gas Law • Dalton’s Law • Bernoulli’s Law
General Gas Law • P1V1 = P2V2 n1T1 n2T2
