Lecture 9 :
 


Open System (Control volume System)
[ See the Explanation Below ]

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  Explanation: This figure shows a fixed (imaginary) open system . The arrows represent flow of mass through the system, though the volume of fluid anytime inside the system remains constant. Hence it is also known as control volume system . Energy can also flow in and out of the system.
