Ch 21B - a Thermodynamics Primer/Review Ch 21b - A Thermodynamics Primer/Review We’ve spent most of Ch21b learning about the microscopic world, one that is defined by quantum mechanics. Such understanding has emerged only relatively recently within the history of chemistry, much of what we know about the transformation of chemical systems was gleaned from studies of macroscopic samples before the advent of the Schrödinger equation. Chief among these advancements was thermodynamics. The power of this discipline lies in its generality. The field developed from observations of the natural world, it stands on its own. No molecular details of the system under study enter into classical thermodynamic analyses. The desire to bridge the macroscopic and microscopic worlds lies at the heart of statistical thermodynamics, a subject we will consider for the remainder of the quarter. Here we’ll briefly review the fundamental “laws” of thermodynamics, in order to provide the necessary backdrop for the molecular/statistical analysis that is based on the collective behavior of extremely large numbers of microscopic quantum mechanical systems. Page 1 23Feb2018 Ch 21b - The “Zeroth” Law of Thermodynamics The quantitative concepts of temperature, work, internal energy, and heat play an important role in the understanding of chemical phenomena. The need to define an absolute temperature scale was not recognized until after the first and second laws of thermodynamics were established. Briefly, it states: For three systems A, B, and C, if A is in thermal equilibrium with C and B is also in thermal equilibrium with C; then A and B are in thermal equilibrium with each other. A C B Page 2 23Feb2018 Ch 21b - Thermodynamic State Variables/Functions When a system is at equilibrium under a given set of conditions, it is said to be in a definite state. State variables include things like pressure, volume and temperature (P, V, T). Those variables that depend on the size of the system are referred to as extensive (such as V, energy); those that do not are referred to as intensive (P, T, for example). Extensive variables can be converted into intensive variables by dividing be a measure of the amount of substance (the molar volume, for example). As we’ll see next, certain quantities do not depend upon the path take by the system; these are called state functions. Some thermodynamic state functions we will be concerned with include: U = internal energy S = entropy H = enthalpy (classically, U + PV) A = Helmholtz free enegy = U – TS G = Gibbs free energy = H – TS Page 3 23Feb2018 Ch 21b - The First Law of Thermodynamics This law is, essentially, a statement of the conservation of energy. Suppose a system is brought from state A to state B. The work done on the system during this change is w, and the heat absorbed by the system is q. The first law states that while w and q depend on the path taken by the system, their sum does not. This sum is a state function, and is the internal energy. Mathematically: dU = dq + dw where the differentials are meant to emphasize infinitesimal changes. dU, since it is path independent, is referred to as an exact differential, while dq and dw are known as inexact differentials since their value depends upon the path taken by the system. Cyclic processes bring the system back to its initial state, and so for such processes the internal energy change is zero. B A ∫ dU = 0 Page 4 23Feb2018 Ch 21b - The Second Law of Thermodynamics The second law is a bit more abstract, and can be stated many ways. One is: There is a quantity S, called entropy, which is a state function. In an irreversible process, the entropy of the system and its surroundings increases. For a reversible process, the entropy of the system and its surroundings remains constant. Mathematically: dS = dqrev/T where the differentials are again meant to emphasize infinitesimal changes. Reversible processes are those in which the driving force (a difference in P, T, etc.) is infinitesimal. Any other change is called irreversible or spontaneous. Reversible Irreversible S = S – S = dq /T or S – S > dq /T Δ A B ∫ rev A B ∫ irrev Given the formulation above, the first and second laws can be combined to yield the well known perfect gas equation: dU = TdS – PdV (heat + work) Page 5 23Feb2018 Ch 21b - The Third Law of Thermodynamics (Nernst Heat Theorem) The second law relates the infinitesimal change in entropy, an exact differential, to that in the infinitesimal change in the heat exchanged (which is inexact since it depends on the path of the system) under isothermal conditions. The integral needed to calculate the change in entropy, however, has an additive constant associated with its calculation. The third law, which can be written in several forms, deals with this constant. One formulation is: In any system in internal equilibrium undergoing an isothermal process between two states, the entropy change of the process approaches zero as the temperature of the system approaches zero. This enables us to calculate the absolute entropy of a substance via the expressions S – S0 = ∫ dqrev/T and S0(T=0) = 0 where the integral runs from 0 to T. The restriction to states of internal equilibrium is important. Frequently, during the approach to T = 0, a system develops internal constraints that prevent the achievement of internal equilibrium (glasses cannot turn into crystalline solids, for example, at low T).

  • Thermal Equilibrium State of the World Oceans
    Thermal equilibrium state of the ocean Rui Xin Huang Department of Physical Oceanography Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Woods Hole, MA 02543, USA April 24, 2010 Abstract The ocean is in a non-equilibrium state under the external forcing, such as the mechanical energy from wind stress and tidal dissipation, plus the huge amount of thermal energy from the air-sea interface and the freshwater flux associated with evaporation and precipitation. In the study of energetics of the oceanic circulation it is desirable to examine how much energy in the ocean is available. In order to calculate the so-called available energy, a reference state should be defined. One of such reference state is the thermal equilibrium state defined in this study. 1. Introduction Chemical potential is a part of the internal energy. Thermodynamics of a multiple component system can be established from the definition of specific entropy η . Two other crucial variables of a system, including temperature and specific chemical potential, can be defined as follows 1 ⎛⎞∂η ⎛⎞∂η = ⎜⎟, μi =−Tin⎜⎟, = 1,2,..., , (1) Te m ⎝⎠∂ vm, i ⎝⎠∂ i ev, where e is the specific internal energy, v is the specific volume, mi and μi are the mass fraction and chemical potential for the i-th component. For a multiple component system, the change in total chemical potential is the sum of each component, dc , where c is the mass fraction of each component. The ∑i μii i mass fractions satisfy the constraint c 1 . Thus, the mass fraction of water in sea ∑i i = water satisfies dc=− c , and the total chemical potential for sea water is wi∑iw≠ N −1 ∑()μμiwi− dc .

  • Chapter 5 the Laws of Thermodynamics: Entropy, Free
    Chapter 5 The laws of thermodynamics: entropy, free energy, information and complexity M.W. Collins1, J.A. Stasiek2 & J. Mikielewicz3 1School of Engineering and Design, Brunel University, Uxbridge, Middlesex, UK. 2Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Gdansk University of Technology, Narutowicza, Gdansk, Poland. 3The Szewalski Institute of Fluid–Flow Machinery, Polish Academy of Sciences, Fiszera, Gdansk, Poland. Abstract The laws of thermodynamics have a universality of relevance; they encompass widely diverse fields of study that include biology. Moreover the concept of information-based entropy connects energy with complexity. The latter is of considerable current interest in science in general. In the companion chapter in Volume 1 of this series the laws of thermodynamics are introduced, and applied to parallel considerations of energy in engineering and biology. Here the second law and entropy are addressed more fully, focusing on the above issues. The thermodynamic property free energy/exergy is fully explained in the context of examples in science, engineering and biology. Free energy, expressing the amount of energy which is usefully available to an organism, is seen to be a key concept in biology. It appears throughout the chapter. A careful study is also made of the information-oriented ‘Shannon entropy’ concept. It is seen that Shannon information may be more correctly interpreted as ‘complexity’rather than ‘entropy’. We find that Darwinian evolution is now being viewed as part of a general thermodynamics-based cosmic process. The history of the universe since the Big Bang, the evolution of the biosphere in general and of biological species in particular are all subject to the operation of the second law of thermodynamics.

ISBN 91-7373-992-8 ISSN 0280-7971 LiU-TEK-LIC-2004:33 Printed by UniTryck, Linköping, Sweden 2004 To Sofia and Ebba Abstract Cylinder pressure modeling and heat release analysis are today important and standard tools for engineers and researchers, when developing and tuning new engines. An accurate specific heat ratio model is important for an accurate heat release analysis, since the specific heat ratio couples the systems energy to other thermodynamic quantities. The objective of the first part is therefore to investigate models of the specific heat ratio for the single-zone heat release model, and find a model accurate enough to introduce a cylinder pressure modeling error less than or in the order of the cylinder pressure measurement noise, while keeping the computational complexity at a minimum. As reference, a specific heat ratio is calculated for burned and unburned gases, assuming that the unburned mixture is frozen and that the burned is at chemical equilibrium. Use of the reference model in heat release analysis is too time consuming and therefore a set of simpler models, both existing and newly developed, are compared to the reference model.

  • A Dynamical Systems Theory of Thermodynamics
    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. Chapter One Introduction 1.1 An Overview of Classical Thermodynamics Energy is a concept that underlies our understanding of all physical phenomena and is a measure of the ability of a dynamical system to produce changes (motion) in its own system state as well as changes in the system states of its surroundings. Thermodynamics is a physical branch of science that deals with laws governing energy flow from one body to another and energy transformations from one form to another. These energy flow laws are captured by the fundamental principles known as the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The first law of thermodynamics gives a precise formulation of the equivalence between heat (i.e., the transferring of energy via temperature gradients) and work (i.e., the transferring of energy into coherent motion) and states that, among all system transformations, the net system energy is conserved. Hence, energy cannot be created out of nothing and cannot be destroyed; it can merely be transferred from one form to another. The law of conservation of energy is not a mathematical truth, but rather the consequence of an immeasurable culmination of observations over the chronicle of our civilization and is a fundamental axiom of the science of heat. The first law does not tell us whether any particular process can actually occur, that is, it does not restrict the ability to convert work into heat or heat into work, except that energy must be conserved in the process.
