The second law of thermodynamics
1991The first law of thermodynamics was developed in Chapter 4 from a study of the effects of adiabatic work on the state of a system. This law introduces the concept of internal energy (a non-primitive state function) and imposes certain limitations on the changes that can occur in a system under given constraints.

The first law of thermodynamics expressed in the form (3.1) has been seen to be a form of the law of conservation of energy in which heat is to be treated as a form of energy or, more exactly, as a form of energy transfer between systems. The first law is sometimes stated in terms of the impossibility of building a certain kind of perpetual ...

The first law of thermodynamics deals with relationships of quantitative values such as thermal energy and work, and it represents the energy conservation law, which denotes that the summation of all energy is constant. Considering only the first law, it seems easy to convert heat to work or work to heat, but it is known empirically that it is not true.

The Second Law of Thermodynamics
2018The second law of thermodynamics is one of the most important concepts in thermodynamics, and a full understanding of it is required in order to understand the field as a whole. However, it is relatively complex and difficult to understand due to the complexity inherent in explaining it. Therefore, this book devotes considerable space to the second law

The Second Law of Thermodynamics
2016As everyday experience shows, all natural phenomena are irreversible. The irreversibility establishes the arrow of time. Natural irreversibility has its own rules, which are stated in the second law of thermodynamics. We shall start giving the two historical statements, one due to Clausius, one due to Lord Kelvin, and then prove their equivalence ...
