SecondLawofThermodynamics

LimitationsofFirstLaw
Consider process of water fall from a hill Cooling a cup of hot tea by surrounding air All such spontaneous processes proceed in one direction only. First law of thermodynamics does not specify direction of the process. Resulting in second law of thermodynamics

Clausius Statement:
It is impossible to construct a device that operates in a cycle and produces no effect other than the transfer of heat from a lower temperature body to a higher temperature body.

ReversibleandIrreversibleProcesses:
Noheatenginehas100%efficiency. Maximumefficiencyofaheatengine? Reversible Process: A reversible process is defined as a process that can be reversed without leaving any trace on the surroundings. That is, both the system and the surroundings are returned to their initial states at the end of the reverse process. Irreversible Process Factors responsible: Friction, unrestrained expansion, mixing of two fluids, heat transfer across a finite temperature difference, electric resistance, inelastic deformation of solids, and chemical reactions.

Reversible processes actually do not occur in nature. In reversible processes, workproducing devices such as car engines and steam turbine etc. deliver the maximum work, and workconsuming devices such as compressors, fans, and pumps etc. consume the minimum work, instead of irreversible ones. The more closely we approximate a reversible process, the more work delivered by a workproducing device or the less work required by a workconsuming device. What is need to study reversible processes?

10/12/2011

The concept of reversible processes leads to the definition of the second law efficiency for actual processes, which is the degree of approximation to the corresponding reversible processes. The better the design, the lower the irreversibility and the higher g the secondlaw efficiency. y

Isothermal process (piston has to move very slowly) and adiabatic process (piston has to move very fast)

Without violating the first law, a machine can be imagined which would continuously absorb heat from a single thermal reservoir and would convert this heat completely into work. work The efficiency of such a machine would be 100 per cent.
