Beschreibung:
This textbook explains the meaning of heat and work and the definition of energy and energy systems. It describes the constructive role of entropy growth and makes the case that energy matters, but entropy growth matters more. Readers will learn that heat can be transferred, produced, and extracted, and that the understanding of generalized heat extraction will revolutionize the design of future buildings as thermal systems for managing low grade heat and greatly contribute to enhanced efficiency of tomorrow¿s energy systems and energy ecosystems.
Brings forth students' understanding of how heat and work are different and why the principle of their inter-convertibility (i.e., exchangeability) should be rejected;
Introduction: Temperature (the measurement of the degree of heat) and some comment on work.- Calorimetry and the caloric theory of heat: the measurement of heat.- The first law: the production of heat and the principle of conservation of energy.- Carnot's theory of heat, and Kelvin's adoption of which in terms of energy.- Entropy and the entropy principle.- Reversible processes versus quasi-static processes, and the condition of internal reversibility.- Free energy, exergy, and energy.- The second law: the entropy growth potential principle and the three-place relation in heat phenomena.- Applications to special states of thermodynamic equilibrium: Gibbsian thermodynamics for physical and chemical applications.- A theory of heat as a prelude to engineering thermodynamics.
