Work (thermodynamics) of the energy went out as heat, and how much as work. This can be summarized by saying that heat and work are not state functions of the system. This is in contrast to classical mechanics, where net work exerted by a particle is a state function. Pressure–volume work (or "PV" work) occurs when the volume of a system changes. "PV" work is often measured in units of litre-atmospheres where = . However, the litre-atmosphere is not a recognised unit in the SI system of units, which measures P in Pascal (Pa), V in m, and PV in Joule (J),
Orbital replacement unit (HST) of fasteners). HST servicing mission 3A (SM3A) replaced (or added) 15 ORUs, e.g. it replaced the DF-224 computer with the "Advanced Computer". The electrical system of the International Space Station also has such subsystems that provide power generation, power distribution and energy storage. Orbital replacement unit (HST) An orbital replacement unit or orbital replaceable unit is a modular component of spacecraft that can be replaced upon failure either by robot or by extravehicular activity. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was designed with 70 such parts, including scientific instruments and limited-life items such as batteries. On HST some parts were designed
