SURROUNDINGS
The mass or region outside the system is called the surroundings.
BOUNDARY
The real or imaginary surface that separates the system from
its surroundings is called the boundary.
CLOSED SYSTEM
A closed system (also known as a control mass) consists of a
fixed amount of mass, and no mass can cross its boundary.
OPEN SYSTEM
An open system, or a control volume, as it is often called,
is a properly selected region.
Both mass and energy can cross the boundary of CV.
It usually encloses a device that involves mass flow such
as a compressor, turbine, or nozzle. Flow through these
devices is best studied by selecting the region within the
device as the control volume.
With what type of ‘system’ can a human heart be analyzed?

Lec # 4
Temperature
“… a characteristic of matter which serves as a driving
potential for energy transfer as heat; energy is
transferred from the body at the higher temperature to
the body at the lower temperature.”
Temperature Scales
Celsius, Kelvin (S.I. unit), Fahrenheit, Rankine.
Pressure
“… is a force per unit area exerted by the fluid”
Unit : Pa, bar, atm, psi
use: absolute, gauge or
vacuum pressure?
manometer or barometer?
Heat
“…is a form of energy transfer across a boundary of a
system at a given temperature to another system (or the
surroundings) at lower temperature by virtue of the
temperature difference between the two systems”.
system
Work
“…is a form of energy transfer by the action of a
macroscopically measurable force on matter (organized
microscopic work)”

Viscosity
Viscosity is a measure of resistance to fluid flow.
Fluids move under influence of applied shear.
Viscosity
When two solid bodies in contact move relative to each
other, a friction force develops at the contact surface in
the direction opposite to motion.
To move a table on the floor, for example, we have to
apply a force to the table in the horizontal direction large
enough to overcome the friction force.
The magnitude of the force needed to move the table
depends on the friction coefficient between the table and
the floor.
Viscosity
There is a property that represents the internal
resistance of a fluid to motion or the “fluidity,” and that
property is the viscosity.
During a differential time interval dt, the sides of fluid particles along a
vertical line MN rotate through a differential angle dβ while the upper plate
moves a differential distance da = V dt. The angular displacement or
deformation (or shear strain) can be expressed as
Contd..
Rearranging, the rate of deformation under the influence of
shear stress τ becomes
