And it has a very tantalizing name, maxwells demon. These are a set of relations which are useful because they allow us to change certain quantities, which are often hard to measure in the real world, to others which can be easily measured. Lecture notes thermodynamics of materials materials. In thermodynamics, the fundamental thermodynamic relation is generally expressed as a. On a pv diagram, the area under the process curve is equal, in magnitude, to the work done during a quasiequilibrium expansion or compression process of a closed system. Leads to a knowledge of how to predict the physical property or at least relations between physical properties. These are the internal energy u, the enthalpy h, the helmholtz free energy or simply the free energy and the gibbs free energy or simply the gibbs function g. In the light of this novel conception of thermodynamics, we find that reciprocal relations result from a.
Thermodynamics thermodynamic properties and relations. The asymptote in is linked to the socalled extreme kerr. The diagram consists of a square with two diagonal arrows pointing upwards and the thermodynamic potentials in alphabetical order clockwise on the sides as shown in figure. That means that on purely mathematical grounds, we can write. Instead, they are usually prepared in thermodynamic states i. Getting started all of thermodynamics can be expressed. In order to carry through a program of finding the changes in the various thermodynamic functions that accompany reactionssuch as entropy, enthalpy, and free energyit is often useful to know these quantities separately for each of the materials entering into the reaction.
