Thermodynamics

A thermodynamic system undergoes a change of state through a reversible process until it comes to equilibrium with the atmosphere.

AVAILABILITY

A thermodynamic system undergoes a change of state through a reversible process until it comes to equilibrium with the atmosphere. Then, the work done by the system on the atmosphere is maximum. The maximum work obtained is called availability of system.

The system transfers heat to the atmosphere at pressure po and temperature To. Here, the equilibrium will exist between system and atmosphere [po =1.01325 bar and To = 25°C]. It is denoted by ϕ for closed system and ψ (or) B for open system.
