Ideal Work using Lost and Actual Work Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Ideal Work = Actual Work Done in Thermodynamic Process-Lost Work
W_ideal = W_Actual-W_lost
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Ideal Work - (Measured in Joule) - Ideal Work is defined as the maximum work obtained when the processes are mechanically reversible.
Actual Work Done in Thermodynamic Process - (Measured in Joule) - Actual Work Done in Thermodynamic Process is defined as the work done by the system or on the system considering all conditions.
Lost Work - (Measured in Joule) - Lost Work is defined as the work lost in the process by the actual work to the ideal work.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Actual Work Done in Thermodynamic Process: 210 Joule --> 210 Joule No Conversion Required
Lost Work: 120 Joule --> 120 Joule No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_ideal = W_Actual-W_lost --> 210-120

Evaluating ... ...

W_ideal = 90

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

90 Joule --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

90 Joule <-- Ideal Work

Ideal Work using Lost and Actual Work Formula

LaTeX Go

Ideal Work = Actual Work Done in Thermodynamic Process-Lost Work
W_ideal = W_Actual-W_lost

Define Lost Work.

Work that is wasted as the result of irreversibilities in a process is called lost work and is defined as the difference between the actual work of a change of state and the ideal work for the same change of state. If the process were reversible, we would not have needed any extra work to do this. Lost work represents a quantity of work that is now unavailable because of irreversibility.

What is First Law of thermodynamics?

In a closed system undergoing a thermodynamic cycle, cyclic integral of heat and cyclic integral of work are proportional to each other when expressed in their own units and are equal to each other when expressed in the consistent(same) units.
