Thermodynamics Part 2: Process Work — Derivations

In this lecture, we cover Process Work in Thermodynamics in a complete and conceptually rigorous manner. The focus of this video is on mathematical derivations and numerical calculations, without shortcuts or rote memorization. You will learn how the work done expression is derived for different thermodynamic processes starting from first principles, and how to apply these results confidently in exam-level problems. 🔍 Topics Covered • Definition of thermodynamic work • Boundary work and sign convention • General work expression: • Isobaric process – derivation & numericals • Isochoric process – work calculation • Isothermal process – detailed derivation • Adiabatic process – work expression • Common mistakes students make in process work problems 🎯 Who This Video Is For ✔ JEE / IIT-JEE aspirants ✔ Undergraduate engineering students ✔ Anyone struggling with thermodynamics numericals ✔ Students who want derivations instead of memorized formulas 💡 Why Watch This Lecture? This video emphasizes clarity, derivation, and physical understanding, helping you build a strong foundation for advanced topics like First Law applications, heat engines, and entropy. 🔔 What’s Next? Thermodynamics Part 3 will cover First Law of Thermodynamics applications with numericals. #Thermodynamics #ProcessWork #EngineeringThermodynamics #ThermodynamicsPart2 #WorkDone #JEE #JEEAdvanced #IIT #EngineeringStudents #ChemicalEngineering #MechanicalEngineering
