Question

Hello, I have a different type of question. I have an upcoming mini-project for my Thermodynamics class and I'm currently looking for ideas for a topic. The project is based on "Fundamentals of Engineering Thermodynamics (8th Edition)" textbook. I have to choose one real-life application to demonstrate myself that covers at least one concept from EACH of the first 5 chapters of the book but not specifically covered in the book itself. The 5 chapters are: Chapter 1 (Getting Started: Introductory Concepts and Definitions), Chapter 2 (Energy and the 1st Law of Thermodynamics), Chapter 3 (Evaluating Properties), Chapter 4 (Control Volume Analysis Using Energy), and Chapter 5 (The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics). I know this is a little unorthodox but I would appreciate the help. THANK YOU in advance!

Explanation / Answer

You can opt for 'household refrigerator' which has four components namely compressor, evaporator, condenser and expansion valve. You can explain both first and second laws (clausius statement) along with control volume. You can refer to first chapter of any refrigeration book.
