61. The Second Law Of Thermodynamics
    The Second Law of Thermodynamics (in classical thermodynamics). The second law in classical thermodynamics is derived from Carnot cycles.

    Extractions: Introduction This page is the second part of a series that describes entropy and the fabled second law of thermodynamics, the previous part being " The Definitions of Entropy ". You should read that page before this, if you are not already satisifed that you know what entropy is (you might read it anyway, and find out that you really didn't know!). The 2nd law of thermodynamics is the law that constrains how the entropy of a thermodynamic system is allowed to change, given some process or circumstances. The true meaning of the 2nd law is most commonly lost in the confusion over the true meaning of entropy, or a failure to appreciate the restrictions on "closed" and "open" systems. The entropy problem is hopefully solved by reading the companion piece already noted above. Here I will go on to show how the 2nd law was derived, and how it works in nature.

    Extractions: back to Table of Contents Thermodynamics, Creationism, and Evolution John W. Patterson “S cientific” creationists destroy their own credibility and that of their beliefs by the way they present themselves and their ideas in public. One of the more scornful exposes of their deceitful tactics, published under the title “The Hoax of Scientific Creationism,” was authored by Dr. John W. Robbins, a devout biblical creationist whose doctorate from The Johns Hopkins University is in philosophy and political theory. Robbins’ article describes the deceptive tactics of the scientific creationists in considerable detail and goes on to explain how hostile were their misrepresentations of Christianity in their oral arguments before the Supreme Court in 1987. Christians who find my characterizations of scientific creationism a bit harsh will do well to read and reflect on Robbins’ account. “Scientific” creationists also have destroyed their own credibility in every branch of science about which they have written by the tactics they employ in writing. This is especially true in thermodynamics, of which there are many distinct versions, depending on the application involved. This comes about because creationists view the laws of science not as do scientists on a quest, but as evangelists on a mission. They use whatever knowledge they may have not to further scientific understanding, but to forge apologetic defenses of the biblical truths they believe in. Here’s an example

Donetsk State University Press, Donetsk (Ukraine). 1998, 139 pp, in Russian. ISBN 966-02-0708-5. Yu. S. Lipatov Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine E-mail: Lipatov@imchem.kiev.ua Received: 8 April 1999 / Accepted: 8 April 1999 / Published: 30 September 1999 The so called "Specialized Thermodynamics" is, in fact, a generalization of the method of thermodynamic potentials by introduction of molecular-quantum variables. In this way, the information on a specific class of molecular systems is directly introduced into the Gibbs equation as non-classical molecular-quantum bifunctions derived from corresponding Hamiltonian. The new equations and inequalities proved to be symmetric with respect to permutation of conjugated intensive and extensive variables. In the spirit of the Gibbs model, a non-equilibrium state is assumed to be a combination of intensive and extensive variables for two different equilibrium states; the stability is characterized by a new parameter, baptized as "Work Production Capacity (WPC)" and defined as "the minimum work spent for creation of a given non-equilibrium state in a reversible process, or the maximum work recovered in the course of equilibration". A feeling of the importance of kinetic energy in Molecular Thermodynamics can be assessed from the general treatment of intermolecular interactions (yielding

The brief description The approach The Light Thermodynamics has a threefold objective: a) to involve light as a motive power into thermodynamics, b) to throw more light on the problems of classical thermodynamics, c) to be more light in understanding of the major thermodynamic laws for both spontaneous physical phenomena and cycles of artificial heat eng ines. a) The equilibrium radiation thermodynamics is based on model of cavity radiation maintained by temperature equals temperature of walls that provides us with a solution to radiation pressure of light. The first objective of book is to make an introduction into thermodynamics of light with black-body temperatures (for example 5700K for solar light) much higher that temperature of matter (say, room temperature, 300K) to generate motive forces appeared to be experimentally observed in many degree of magnitude greater than forces of radiation pressure in equilibrium radiation thermodynamics. b) The classical thermodynamics of a reversible work substance will be a part of thermodynamics of renewable cycles. The solving of concrete problems of motion with entropy of Clausius for reversible work substance together with evolution of non-equilibrium entropy of Planck will help to study more about difference between variational principles of reversible cycles for the problem of maximum available heat and the actual motion to the problem of maximum light available for conversion.

67. Fundamentals Of Classical And Statistical Thermodynamics
    Broadly speaking, the first half of the book is dedicated to classical thermodynamics followed by an account of statistical thermodynamics.

Summary (range: * very poor to ***** excellent) Academic content Usefulness to student Usefulness to teacher Meets objectives Accuracy Bimalendu N. Roy’s “Fundamentals of classical and statistical thermodynamics” is a broad exploration of subject area, extending from the very basics such as energy and temperature to a range of more involved and conceptually difficult ideas. The author aims this book at junior undergraduates, with some sections being more appropriate for senior undergraduates and post-graduates. I feel that this aim is achieved, and the book might well serve as a core text over a full degree course, and would provide teachers with an excellent reference text. The book generally flows logically from the basics to rather advanced ideas, with the occasional occurrence of unexplained terms that are to be visited later in the text. At the end of the book there are a number of helpful appendices, including extensive tables of enthalpies of formation, free energies and standard entropies (although there is some repetition of some values in different tables), and an appendix detailing some useful mathematical tools.

68. Large-Scale Inhomogenous Thermodynamics - And Applications For Atmospheric Energ

    Extractions: Cambridge International Science Publishing LARGE-SCALE INHOMOGENEOUS THERMODYNAMICS - AND APPLICATION FOR ATMOSPHERIC ENERGETICS Yong Zhu Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, USA There are large-scale fluid systems in the gravity field, such as the Earth' s atmosphere and oceans, which posses some features different from those of classical thermodynamic systems. For example, the oceans and atmosphere possess inhomogeneous melt equilibrium states with the same amount of mass and energy. The zeroth law of classical thermodynamics can be applied for the inhomogeneous thermodynamic systems, and the irreversible variations may not be explained only by the change of classical thermodynamic entropy. Therefore, there has been a need for a new theory to study the particular systems. This book introduces a new science, called large-scale inhomogeneous thermodynamics, to study the inhomogeneous thermodynamic systems. p V diagrams are different from those studied in the classical thermodynamics and maybe interesting to engineering. In particular, a new reversible heat engine is forwarded to study the mean meridional circulations in the atmosphere. The Carnot engine is only an example of the new reversible engine. The important conditions for the development of super storms, such as the low-temperature inversion and vertical windshear, may be interpreted by the air engine theory. The effect of entrainment and detrainment in convective processes is studied by the polytropic mixing theory. Some other applications, such as in the frontogenesis, slantwise convection and multi-equilibrium states of the atmosphere, are also demonstrated. The last two chapters are devoted to the study of uncertainties in current weather and climate prediction models related to various error sources. The predictability and chaos of various physical systems are also discussed.

However, in thermodynamics, it is a much more straightforward concept. A thermodynamic system is defined as a volume in space or a well defined set of materials (matter). The imaginary outer edge of the system is called its boundary As can be seen from the definition, the boundary can be fixed or moving. A system in which matter crosses the boundary is called an open system. Similarly, as system in which the amount of matter is constant is called a closed system. The above image shows a piston cylinder arrangement, where a gas is compressed by the piston. The dotted lines represent the system boundary. As can be seen, due to an opening in the cylinder, gas can escape outside as the piston moves inwards, and gas enters the system when the piston moves outwards. Thus, it is an open system. Now consider a similar system, but one in which gas cannot escape. In practice, there might be some space between the piston and the cylinder, but we can ignore it for modeling purposes. Thus the model of this configuration is a closed system.
