Frequency-Dependent Specific Heat. We mention measurements of volume relaxation through the frequency-dependent specific heat Cn(co) as in fluids near the glass transition [52]. This is feasible when the experimental frequency co is of the order fi0 in small gels. The deviations of the entropy, temperature, and volume are related by SS = CV5T + (dH/dT)v8Vand the relaxation equation reads...

Related Calculations. When specific thermodynamic charts, namely, enthalpy-temperature, entropy-temperature, and enthalpy-entropy, are not available for a particular system, use the generalized enthalpy and entropy charts to perform expander-compressor calculations, as shown in this example. 

The adiabatic compression of saturated vapours was considered by Bruhat, who also calculated the angle between the liquid and vapour phase isochores in the entropy-temperature diagram. Amagat investigated the discontinuity in specific heats where an isothermal cuts the saturation curve. Hausen, from a complicated formula for the specific heat of steam involving two Einstein terms ( 2.IX N), calculated the heat content and entropy of steam. Leduc found the value of n for dry steam in Rankine s equation for adiabatic... 

Experimental data are presented to show that the JG relaxation mimics the structural relaxation in its volume-pressure and entropy-temperature dependences, as well as changes in physical aging. These features indicate that the dependences of molecular mobility on volume-pressure and entropy-temperature have entered into the faster JG relaxation long before structural relaxation, suggesting that the JG relaxation must be considered in any complete theory of the glass transition.

The work of Carnot, published in 1824, and later the work of Clausius (1850) and Kelvin (1851), advanced the formulation of the properties of entropy, temperature, and the second law. Clausius introduced the word entropy. The second law is a statement of existence of stable equilibrium states and distinguishes thermodynamics from mechanics and other fields of physics. The many stable equilibrium states and various other equilibrium and nonequilibrium states contemplated in thermodynamics are not contemplated in mechanics (Gyftopoulos and Beretta, 2005). The second law is a qualitative statement on the accessibility of energy and the direction of progress of real processes. For example, the efficiency of a reversible engine is a function of temperature only, and efficiency cannot exceed unity. These statements are the results of the first and second laws, and can be used to define an absolute scale of temperature that is independent of any material properties used to measure it. A quantitative description of the second law emerges by determining entropy and entropy production in irreversible processes. 

Some readers may have noticed that, despite the numerous equations and derivations, the introduction of entropy and the second law is less than completely rigorous in this chapter. This is because at a crucial point, the introduction of the relationship between entropy, temperature, and heat (Equation 4.3), we rely on analogy rather than demonstration or argument. Most treatments rely on a discussion of Carnot cycles, but as one chemist has observed. 

In Eq. [6.6], S, % V, p, n, and fi denote entropy, temperature, volume, pressure, amount, and chemical potential, respectively. Subscript 0 denotes the corresponding... 

Is the flow of heat due to a tendency to equalize energies No. Heat flows to maximize entropy. Temperatures are equalized, not energies. The First Law describes energy bookkeeping the sum of heat plus work is constant. It docs not tell us why, or when, or how much energy will be exchanged. For that we need a second principle, the principle that systems tend toward their states of maximum entropy, the Second Law of thermodynamics.

Entropy is a measure of disorder the more ordered something is, the lower its entropy. Temperature is related to entropy cold bodies have low entropy because their atoms are less ordered than hot bodies where the atoms are moving around more. In thermodynamics, entropy is a measure of the amount of energy in a system that is no longer available for doing useful work. In communication theory, entropy is a measure of the uncertainty of an outcome. 

Minimization of F, therefore, occurs by maximization of the entropy temperature is not a controlling variable. The entropy, in turn, is controlled by the packing fraction of the particles. Fig. 1 shows a schematic phase diagram.
