James Watt radically improved Newcomen's engine (1769) by condensing the steam outside the cylinder .

6. Questions Raised by Nicholas Leonard Sadi Carnot
How was the work developed by the engine related to the heat supplied (amount of coal burned)?
Was there an upper limit to this work and what condition could lead to its release?
Was water the best material to use, or might not some other liquid such as alcohol provide a more effective medium?
Might not a gas such as air be more advantageous than a condensable vapour?
The thermal efficiency of boiler has increased from about 30% in 1800 to over 90% in a modern boiler….

7. Energy is a manageable expense — perhaps our most manageable expense!
Definition of EMM
The judicious and effective use of energy to maximize profits (that is, minimize costs) and enhance competitive positions.
- Capehart, Turner and Kennedy –1997
Implementation of EMM demands a strong belief:
Energy is a manageable expense — perhaps our most manageable expense!

8. Energy is a Manageable Expense!!!
What are your top three operating expenses?
Answer: For many organisations, they are energy (electricity, coal and oil/gas), labour and materials expenses.
2. Through careful management, by what percentage could you reduce each expense?
Answer. Many companies have realised as much as 25% savings in energy costs by implementing an energy management program.
What priority should energy management receive?
Answer: In terms of the potential for savings, many companies find that energy moves to the first priority position.
In fact, energy management would deliver about twice the savings that materials management would and five times what labour cost management offers.

11. Process Efficiency of A Manufacturing Device
A device following a Reversible process will produce maximum benefits for a specified amount of resource depletion.
Irreversible or actual devices generate relatively lower magnitude of benefits.
The level of this process irreversibility is also defined as efficiency of a process or machine.
Conventional thermodynamics uses various performance parameters.
For example, a machine is expected to follow an Isentropic process.
However, due to friction it may be following an irreversible adiabatic or irreversible and heat loss process.
This irreversibility is defined as Isentropic Efficiency.

12. Isentropic Efficiency of a Device
Isentropic efficiency is defined for a process.
This is the ratio of actual performance to Isentropic performance of a machine.
For power generation machines:
Isentropic efficiency = Actual power output/Isentropic power output.
For Power consuming machines:
Isentropic efficiency = Isentropic power input/Actual Power input.
These definitions are case dependent and a separate definition is to be developed for each application.

13. Types of Work Transfers in Manufacturing
Moving Boundary work (displacement work)
Extrusion
Metal cutting
Forging
Shaft work
Electrical work
Steam/gas work

14. Displacement work : Extrusion
Extrusion is the process by which a block/billet of metal is reduced in cross section by forcing it to flow through a die orifice under high pressure.
Most metals are hot extruded due to large amount of forces required in extrusion.

16. Theoretical Minimum Energy for Heating Metal
The theoretical minimum energy requirements to melt one ton of metal.
This is defined as the difference in the theoretical total energy content (enthalpy) of metal at typical tapping temperatures and the total energy at ambient temperatures.
The enthalpy of metal is considered zero at 25°C.
The energy levels for a metal at other temperatures is calculated using:
