Inconsistencies in the Current Thermodynamic Description of Elastic Solids Inconsistencies in the current thermodynamic description of elastic solids József Garai1 and Alexandre Laugier2 1 Department of Earth Sciences, University Park, PC 344, Miami, FL 33199, USA 2 IdPCES - Centre d'affaires PATTON, 6, rue Franz Heller, bât. A, F35700 Rennes, France E-mails: 1 [email protected] 2 [email protected] Abstract Using the contemporary thermodynamic equations of elastic solids leads to contradictions with the fundamental statements of thermodynamics. Two examples are presented to expose the inconsistencies. In example one the internal energy between the initial and final states shows path dependency while in example two changing the temperature of a system at constant volume produces mechanical work. These results are contradictory with the fundamentals of thermodynamics and indicate that the contemporary description of elastic solids needs to be revisited and revised. In solid phase the relationship between the pressure and volume is described by the isothermal bulk modulus [K T ] : ∂p K T = −V (1) ∂V T It is assumed that the solid is homogeneous, isotropic, non-viscous and that the elasticity is linear. It is also assumed that the stresses are isotropic; therefore, the principal stresses can be identified as the pressure p = σ1 = σ 2 = σ3 . The function between temperature and volume is characterized by the volume coefficient of expansion [ αV p ]: 1 ∂V α = (2) Vp V ∂T p The volume of a solid system at a given temperature and pressure can be calculated by employing the equations of the volume coefficient of expansion and the bulk modulus. Allowing one of the variables to change while the other one held constant the calculation can be done in two steps (Fig. 1), p T 1 α dT − dp ∫ Vp=0 ∫p=0 K V = V e T=0 or V = V e T=0 (3) ()T p=0 0 ()p T=0 0 and then T p 1 α dT − dp ∫ Vp ∫p=0 K V = V e T=0 or V = V e T (4) ()T p ()p T=0 ()p T ()T p=0 where V0 is the volume at zero pressure and temperature. These two steps might be combined into one and the volume at a given p, and T can be calculated: T p 1 αV dT− dp ∫T=0 p ∫p=0 KT Vp,T = V0e (5) According to the first law of thermodynamics the differentials of the internal energy [U] of a system can be calculated in the same way in solid phase as in gas phase thus the differential of the internal energy is equal with the sum of the differentials of the thermal and the mechanical energies. dU = δq + δw = ncVdT − pdV (6) where q is the heat, supplied to or taken away from the system, w is the mechanical work, done by or on the system, n is the number of moles, and cV is the molar heat capacity at constant volume. Heating up a system at zero pressure from zero temperature to temperature T the internal energy of the system will increase as: T ()∆UT = ncVdT (7) p=0 ∫T=0 Applying pressure on the system at constant temperature and increasing the pressure from zero pressure to pressure p will change the internal energy of the system ∆U by the mechanical ( p )T work ∆w done on the system. Besides the exponential nature of the isothermal curves (Eq. ( p )T 3-4) the area (isothermal work function) under these curves almost identical with a triangle area. Small deviation could occur at extremely high pressures. The mechanical work, therefore, will be calculated as: 1 ()()∆U = ∆w = − p(∆V ) (8) p T p T 2 p T where T p 1 α dT − dp ∫ Vp ∫p=0 K ()∆V = V e T=0 e T −1 (9) p T 0 The internal energy of the system at temperature T and pressure p is T p 1 T − dp 1 αV dT ∫p=0 ∫T=0 p KT Up,T = Up=0,T=0 + ()∆UT + ()∆Up = Up=0,T=0 + ncVdT − pV0e e −1 (10) p=0 T ∫T=0 2 Using subscript i and f for the initial and final state respectively and assuming that Up=0,T=0 = Ui (11) and Up,T = Uf (12) then the internal energy difference between the initial and final state is: T p 1 T − dp 1 αV dT ∫p=0 ∫T=0 p KT ∆Upath−1 = Uf − Ui = ncVdT − pV0e e −1 . (13) ∫T=0 2 Subscript path-1 indicates the path which was followed between the initial and final conditions. The internal energy is state function; therefore, the internal energy change between the initial and final states is the same no matter what path has been followed between these two states (Figure 2a). Using the previous example the internal energy of the final state should be the same if the pressure is applied on the system at zero temperature first and then the system is heated up to temperature T at constant pressure (path-2). Uf ,path−1 = Uf ,path−2 ⇔ Uf ,path−1 − Ui = Uf ,path−2 − Ui ⇔ ∆Upath−1 = ∆Upath−2 (14) At zero temperature the pressure increase from zero to p will do work on the system. 1 ()∆U = ()∆w = − p(∆V ) (15) p T=0 p T=0 2 p T=0 where p 1 − dp ∫p=0 ()∆V = V e KT −1 (16) p T=0 0 Increasing the temperature at constant pressure from zero temperature to temperature T involves both thermal ()∆qT p and mechanical energies (∆w T )p . ()()()∆UT p = ∆qT p + ∆w T p (17) These energies can be calculated as: T ()∆qT = ncVdT and (∆w T ) = −p(∆VT ) (18) p ∫T=0 p p where p 1 T − dp α dT ∫p=0 K ∫ Vp ∆V = V e T e T=0 −1 . (19) ()T p 0 Summing the energies between the initial and the final state gives the total internal energy change for path-2. 1 T ∆Upath−2 = Uf − Ui = − p(∆Vp ) + ncVdT − p()∆VT (20) 2 T=0 ∫T=0 p Using the internal energy equivalency for the two different paths and deducting the internal energy change of path one from path two gives: 1 p[]()∆V − ()∆V + p()∆V = 0 . (21) 2 p T=0 p T T p After simplifications it can be written: T p 1 α dT − dp 1 ∫ Vp ∫p=0 K pV e T=0 −11+ e T = 0 . (22) 0 2 At pressures higher than zero the equality implies that either the factor T p 1 α dT − dp ∫ Vp ∫p=0 K e T=0 −1 = 0 or 1+ e T = 0 . (23) Since p 1 ∫ − dp e p=0 KT > 0 (24) then p 1 − dp ∫p=0 1+ e KT ≠ 0 (25) Assuming positive value for the volume coefficient of expansion at temperatures higher than zero T α dT ∫ Vp e T=0 > 1 (26) results that T αV dT ∫T=0 p e −1 ≠ 0 (27) It can be concluded that the equality ∆Upath−1 = ∆Upath−2 is incorrect in this framework. Another discrepancy in the current description of elastic solids can be noted by heating up a system at constant volume. The internal energies for the initial and final states are Tf Tf Ui = qi + w i and ()Uf = qi + w i + ncVdT = qi + ncVdT + w f . (28) V ∫T ∫T i i Keeping the volume constant resulting that the initial and final volumes are the same. Vf Vi = Vf or = 1 (29) Vi Using equation 5 it can be seen that the volume remains constant if the equality Tf pf 1 αV dT − dp ∫ p ∫p e Ti e i KT = 1 (30) is satisfied. The mechanical work, stored by the system in the initial state is p Ti i 1 α dT − dp 1 ∫ Vp ∫p=0 K w = − p V e T=0 e T −1 . (31) i i 0 2 The work in the final state can be written as: p Tf f 1 α dT − dp 1 ∫ Vp ∫p=0 K w = − p V e T=0 e T −1 . (32) f f 0 2 The mechanical work of the final state (using Eq. 32) can be factorized as: T pi 1 pf 1 Ti f − dp − dp α dT αV dT 1 ∫ Vp ∫T p ∫p=0 K ∫pi K w = − p V e T=0 e i e T e T −1 (33) f f 0 2 and pi 1 T Ti − dp f α dT αV dT 1 ∫ Vp ∫p=0 K ∫T p w= − p V e T=0 e T − e i . (34) f f 0 2 According to the first law of thermodynamics when a system is heated up constant volume mechanical work is not done on or by the system. The mechanical energy of the system in the initial and final state should be the same. ()w i V = ()w f V (35) Using the equality of the initial and final mechanical work it can be written pi 1 pi 1 Tf − dp − dp α dT ∫p=0 ∫p=0 ∫ Vp pe KT −1 = p e KT − e Ti . (36) i f and then pi 1 Tf − dp dT ∫ αVp p=0 KT ∫Ti e()pf − pi + pi = pf e . (37) Since pf = ()pf − pi + pi (38) then p i 1 Tf Tf − dp α dT α dT ∫p=0 Vp Vp KT ∫Ti ∫Ti ()pf − pi e + pi = ()pf − pi e + pie (39) Assuming that both the volume coefficient of expansion and the bulk modulus are positive and that the final temperature is higher than the initial one and the initial pressure is nonzero then pi 1 Tf − dp α dT ∫p=0 ∫ Vp eKT < 1 < e Ti (40) resulting that p i 1 Tf Tf − dp α dT α dT ∫p=0 Vp Vp KT ∫Ti ∫Ti ()pf − pi e + pi < ()pf − pi e + pie (41) This result contradicts with the original assumption wi = w f indicating that work had been done at constant volume.

A knowledge of the equilibrium state of a system under a given set of conditions is the starting point in the description of many phenomena and processes. A phase diagram is a graphical representation of the values of the thermodynamic variables when equilibrium is established among the phases of a system. Materials scientists are most familiar with phase diagrams which involve temperature, T, and composition as variables. Examples are T-composition phase diagrams for binary systems such as Fig. 1 for the Fe-Mo system, isothermal phase diagram sections of ternary systems such as Fig. 2 for the Zn-Mg-Al system, and isoplethal (constant composition) sections of ternary and higher-order systems such as Fig. 3a and Fig. 4. However, many useful phase diagrams can be drawn which involve variables other than T and composition. The diagram in Fig. 5 shows the phases present at equilibrium o in the Fe-Ni-O2 system at 1200 C as the equilibrium oxygen partial pressure (i.e. chemical potential) is varied. The x-axis of this diagram is the overall molar metal ratio in the system.

  • Benefits and Challenges of Mechanical Spring Systems for Energy Storage Applications

Duranti 67, Perugia Abstract Storing the excess mechanical or electrical energy to use it at high demand time has great importance for applications at every scale because of irregularities of demand and supply. Energy storage in elastic deformations in the mechanical domain offers an alternative to the electrical, electrochemical, chemical, and thermal energy storage approaches studied in the recent years. The present paper aims at giving an overview of mechanical spring systems’ potential for energy storage applications. Part of the appeal of elastic energy storage is its ability to discharge quickly, enabling high power densities. This available amount of stored energy may be delivered not only to mechanical loads, but also to systems that convert it to drive an electrical load. Mechanical spring systems’ benefits and limits for storing macroscopic amounts of energy will be assessed and their integration with mechanical and electrical power devices will be discussed. ©© 2015 2015 The The Authors.

  • Mechanical Energy
    Chapter 2 Mechanical Energy Mechanics is the branch of physics that deals with the motion of objects and the forces that affect that motion. Mechanical energy is similarly any form of energy that’s directly associated with motion or with a force. Kinetic energy is one form of mechanical energy. In this course we’ll also deal with two other types of mechanical energy: gravitational energy,associated with the force of gravity,and elastic energy, associated with the force exerted by a spring or some other object that is stretched or compressed. In this chapter I’ll introduce the formulas for all three types of mechanical energy,starting with gravitational energy. Gravitational Energy An object’s gravitational energy depends on how high it is,and also on its weight. Specifically,the gravitational energy is the product of weight times height: Gravitational energy = (weight) × (height). (2.1) For example,if you lift a brick two feet off the ground,you’ve given it twice as much gravitational energy as if you lift it only one foot,because of the greater height. On the other hand,a brick has more gravitational energy than a marble lifted to the same height,because of the brick’s greater weight. Weight,in the scientific sense of the word,is a measure of the force that gravity exerts on an object,pulling it downward. Equivalently,the weight of an object is the amount of force that you must exert to hold the object up,balancing the downward force of gravity. Weight is not the same thing as mass,which is a measure of the amount of “stuff” in an object.

Marble conventional triaxial loading and unloading failure testing research is carried out to analyze the elastic strain energy and dissipated strain energy evolutionary characteristics of the marble deformation process. The study results show that the change rates of dissipated strain energy are essentially the same in compaction and elastic stages, while the change rate of dissipated strain energy in the plastic segment shows a linear increase, so that the maximum sharp point of the change rate of dissipated strain energy is the failure point. The change rate of dissipated strain energy will increase during unloading confining pressure, and a small sharp point of change rate of dissipated strain energy also appears at the unloading point. The damage variable is defined to analyze the change law of failure variable over strain. In the loading test, the damage variable growth rate is first rapid then slow as a gradual process, while in the unloading test, a sudden increase appears in the damage variable before reaching the rock peak strength.

Published: 17 November 2019 Abstract: We analyze existing models for material transport in non-isothermal non-electrolyte liquid mixtures that utilize non-equilibrium thermodynamics. Many different sets of equations for material have been derived that, while based on the same fundamental expression of entropy production, utilize different terms of the temperature- and concentration-induced gradients in the chemical potential to express the material flux. We reason that only by establishing a system of transport equations that satisfies the following three requirements can we obtain a valid thermodynamic model of thermodiffusion based on entropy production, and understand the underlying physical mechanism: (1) Maintenance of mechanical equilibrium in a closed steady-state system, expressed by a form of the Gibbs–Duhem equation that accounts for all the relevant gradients in concentration, temperature, and pressure and respective thermodynamic forces; (2) thermodiffusion (thermophoresis) is zero in pure unbounded liquids (i.e., in the absence of wall effects); (3) invariance in the derived concentrations of components in a mixture, regardless of which concentration or material flux is considered to be the dependent versus independent variable in an overdetermined system of material transport equations. The analysis shows that thermodiffusion in liquids is based on the entropic mechanism.

  • The Relationship Between Energy Demand and Real GDP Growth Rate: the Role of Price Asymmetries and Spatial Externalities Within 34 Countries Across the Globe
    The relationship between energy demand and real GDP growth rate: the role of price asymmetries and spatial externalities within 34 countries across the globe Panagiotis Fotis a Hellenic Competition Commission Commissioner Sotiris Karkalakos b University of Piraeus and DePaul University Department of Economics Dimitrios Asteriou c Oxford Brookes University Department of Accounting, Finance and Economics Abstract The aim of this paper is to empirically explore the relationship between energy demand and real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth and to investigate the role of asymmetries (price and GDP growth asymmetries) and regional externalities on Final Energy Consumption (FEC ) in 34 countries during the period from 2005 to 2013. The paper utilizes a Panel Generalized Method of Moments approach in order to analyse the effect of real GDP growth rate on FEC through an Error Correction Model (ECM) and spatial econometric techniques in order to examine clustered patterns of energy consumption. The results show that a) the demand is elastic both in the industrial and the household/services sectors, b) electricity and natural gas are demand substitutes, c) the relationship between real GDP growth rate and energy consumption exhibits an inverted U – shape, d) price (electricity and gas) and GDP growth asymmetries are supported from the employed parametric and non – parametric tests, and e) distance does not affect FEC, but economic neighbors have a strong positive effect.
