Revised on September 13, 2018. Accepted on October 4, 2019. Most books on Thermodynamics explain what thermodynamic potentials are and how conveniently they describe the properties of physical systems. Certain books add that, to be useful, the thermodynamic potentials must be expressed in their “natural variables”. Here we show that, given a set of physical variables, an appropriate thermodynamic potential can always be defined, which contains all the thermodynamic information about the system. We adopt various perspectives to discuss this point, which to the best of our knowledge has not been clearly presented in the literature. Keywords: Thermodynamic Potentials, natural variables, Legendre transforms. 1. Introduction same statement cannot be applied to the temperature. In real fluids, even in simple ones, the proportionality Basic concepts are most easily understood when we dis- to T is washed out, and the Internal Energy is more cuss simple systems. Consider an ideal gas in a cylinder. conveniently expressed as a function of the entropy and The cylinder is closed, its walls are conducting, and a volume: U = U(S, V ).

Integrate the equation if it is exact. (a) x dG = αdx + β dy (1) y (b) α dG = dx + βdy (2) x (c) x2 dG = (x + y)dx + dy (3) 2 (ii) Show that the work done on the system at pressure P d¯W = −P dV (4) where dV is the change in volume is an inexact differential by showing that there exists no possible function of state for W (P; V ). (iii) Consider the differential dF = (x2 − y)dx + xdy : (5) (a) Show that this is not an exact differential. And hence integrate this equation in two different straight paths from (1; 1) ! (2; 2) and from (1; 1) ! (1; 2) ! (2; 2), where (x; y) indicates the locations. Compare the results { are they identical? (b) Define a new differential with dF y 1 dG ≡ = 1 − dx + dy : (6) x2 x2 x Show that dG is exact, and find G(x; y). 2) This problem asks you to derive some derivative identities of a system with three variables x, y and z, with a single constraint x(y; z). This kind of system is central to thermodynamics as we often use three state variables P , V and T , with an equation of state P (V; T ) (i.e. the constraint) to describe a system.

    Vector Calculus and Differential Forms with Applications To

    Vector Calculus and Differential Forms with Applications to Electromagnetism Sean Roberson May 7, 2015 PREFACE This paper is written as a final project for a course in vector analysis, taught at Texas A&M University - San Antonio in the spring of 2015 as an independent study course. Students in mathematics, physics, engineering, and the sciences usually go through a sequence of three calculus courses before go- ing on to differential equations, real analysis, and linear algebra. In the third course, traditionally reserved for multivariable calculus, stu- dents usually learn how to differentiate functions of several variable and integrate over general domains in space. Very rarely, as was my case, will professors have time to cover the important integral theo- rems using vector functions: Green’s Theorem, Stokes’ Theorem, etc. In some universities, such as UCSD and Cornell, honors students are able to take an accelerated calculus sequence using the text Vector Cal- culus, Linear Algebra, and Differential Forms by John Hamal Hubbard and Barbara Burke Hubbard. Here, students learn multivariable cal- culus using linear algebra and real analysis, and then they generalize familiar integral theorems using the language of differential forms. This paper was written over the course of one semester, where the majority of the book was covered. Some details, such as orientation of manifolds, topology, and the foundation of the integral were skipped to save length. The paper should still be readable by a student with at least three semesters of calculus, one course in linear algebra, and one course in real analysis - all at the undergraduate level.

Revised on October 8, 2019. Accepted on October 13, 2019. We give an account and a critical analysis of the use of exact and inexact differentials in the early development of mechanics and thermodynamics, and the emergence of differential calculus and how it was applied to solve some mechanical problems, such as those related to the cycloidal pendulum. The Lagrange equations of motions are presented in the form they were originally obtained in terms of differentials from the principle of virtual work. The derivation of the conservation of energy in differential form as obtained originally by Clausius from the equivalence of heat and work is also examined. Keywords: differential, differential calculus, analytical mechanics, thermodynamics. 1. Introduction variable x. If another variable y depends on the indepen- dent variable x, then the resulting increment dy of y is It is usual to formulate the basic equations of thermo- its differential. The quotient of these two differentials, dynamics in terms of differentials. The conservation of dy/dx, was interpreted geometrically by Leibniz as the energy is written as ratio of the ordinate y of a point on a curve and the length of the subtangent associated to this point.

Literature survey and theoretical Knowledge of the enthalpy of fusion of sodium hexafluoroaluminate Na3AlF6 (cryolite) is important both from theoretical and practical points of view. For example, it is needed at calculation of the thermal and energy balance and/or the thermal inertia of aluminium cells (the electrolyte contains about 90 mass % of Na3AlF6). The most precise values of the molar enthalpy of fusion AHf(i) of chemical substances can be generally obtained from calorimetric measurements. However, when we deal with substances having higher melting temperature and which are also unstable and very corrosive the calorimetric determination of the quantity AHf(i) can be less reliable. In the case of cryolite Roth and Bertram [1] found from the calorimetric 1 1 measurements ÄH,(Na3 A1F6) = 16.64 kcal mol" = 69.62 kJ mol" .
