    Mechanical Technical Interview

    Questions For Thermodynamics

    In today’s blog topic we are sharing some of the


    mostly asked and important questions from interview
    point of view.

    1. Why Thermodynamics is important in the field


    of Mechanical Engineering

    As all the mechanical systems obey the rules of


    thermodynamics; it is very important for the
    mechanical engineers.

    2. State the Laws of Thermodynamics.

    The three laws of thermodynamics are:

    1st Law:

    Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; but can


    change forms. In an isolated system, the total energy
    always remains the same.

    Second Law:

    The entropy of the universe increases during any


    spontaneous process.

    Third Law:
    As temperature reaches absolute zero, the entropy of
    a system becomes minimum.

    3. What are the Laws of energy conservation?

    Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed; but


    can be transformed from one form to another.

    4. Is a boiler a closed system?

    Yes.

    5. What is a Carnot engine?

    It is an imaginary engine which follows Carnot cycle


    and provides 100% efficiency.

    6. Difference between Gas and Vapour

    1.Vapour can change back and forth into liquid and


    solid states but a gas can’t.

    2.Gases cannot be seen while vapours are visible.

    3.Vapours settle on ground while gases don’t.


    7. Differentiate Boiling Point and Melting Point

    1.The melting point is the temperature at which a


    solid changes to liquid state.

    2.The boiling point is the temperature ate which


    liquids transform into gas.
    8.What is the effect of reheat on Rankine cycle?

    1. Increased efficiency

    2. Increased yield

    3. Both

    4. None of these.

    1.Increased efficiency

    9. What is flashpoint?

    Flash point is the lowest temperature at which vapour


    of a combustible liquid can be ignited in air.

    10. What is refrigerant?

    A substance that transfers heat from one place to


    another, developing a cooling effect. Water is a
    refrigerant in absorption machines.

    11. What is Otto cycle.

    Designed by Nicolas Otto, an Otto cycle can be


    explained by a pressure volume (P/V) relationship
    diagram. It depicts the functioning cycle of a four
    stroke engine. The cycle begins with an intake stroke,
    closing the intake and then moves to the compression
    stroke, starting of combustion, power stroke, heat
    exchange stroke where heat is rejected and the
    exhaust stroke.
    12. How to measure temperature in a Wet Bulb
    Thermometer?

    Wet bulb temperature is measured in a wet bulb


    thermometer by covering the bulb with a wick and
    soaking it with water. It corresponds to the dew point
    temperature and relative humidity.

    13.) In a Thermal Power Plant why Deaerator


    (D/A) is placed on a height?

    To build a very high pressure and the temperature for


    a boiler feed water pump and it discharges high
    pressure water to the boiler.

    14.) What are the differences between gas


    turbine and a steam turbine?

    Gas turbine works on Bryton cycle whereas a steam


    turbine works on Rankine cycle. The making and
    operation of a gas turbine is entirely different to steam
    turbine.

    15) Where does stress corrosion cracking occur


    in a stream turbine?

    In the wet stages.
