Thermodynamics II
An open system is a thermodynamic system that can exchange both energy and matter with its surroundings. This exchange allows for continuous flow processes, making open systems essential in various applications, such as engines, refrigeration, and biological systems. Understanding how energy and mass are transported into and out of an open system is crucial for analyzing performance, efficiency, and the overall behavior of thermodynamic processes.
