Chapter 19: The Second Law of Thermodynamics
Directions of thermodynamic processes
Irreversible and reversible processes
• Thermodynamic processes that occur in nature are all irreversible processes which proceed spontaneously in one direction but not the other.• In a reversible process the system must be capable of being returned to its original state with no other change in the surroundings.• A reversible process proceeds slowly through equilibrium states.

Heat engines
Heat engine
• Any device that transforms heat partly into work or mechanical energy is called a heat engine.• A quantity of matter inside the engine undergoes inflow and outflow of heat, expansion and compression, and sometimes change of phase.• This matter inside the engine is called the working substance of the engine.• The simplest kind of engine to analyze is one in which the working substance undergoes a cyclic process.• All heat engines absorb heat from a source at a relatively high temperature, perform some mechanical work, and discard or reject some heat at a lower temperature.

Internal-combustion engines
Gasoline engine (a heat engine)
• First a mixture of air and gasoline vapor flows into a cylinder through an open intake valve while the piston descends, increasing the volume of the cylinder from a minimum of V to a maximum of rV (r: compression ratio 8-10).• At the end of intake stroke, the intake valve closes and the mixture is compressed, approximately adiabatically, back to volume V during the compression stroke.• Then the mixture is ignited by the spark plug, and the heated gas expands, approximately adiabatically, back to volume rV, pushing on the piston-power stroke.

The second law of thermodynamics The second law of thermodynamics
It is impossible for any system to undergo a process in which it absorbsheat from a reservoir at a single temperature and converts the heatcompletely into mechanical work, with the system ending in the samestate in which it began (Kelvin-Planck statement)
• The kinetic and potential (due to interactions between molecules) energies associated with random motion constitute the internal energy.• When a body sliding on a surface comes to rest as a result of friction, the organized motion of the body is converted to random motion of molecules in the body and in the surface.• Since we can’t control the motions of individual molecules, we can’t convert this random motion COMPLTELY back to organized motion.
It is impossible for any process to have as its sole result the transfer ofheat from a cooler to a hotter body (Clausius statement).

Proof : Kelvin-Planck statement = Clausius statement
(a)A workless refrigerator violates 2nd law (K-P statement). If it existed, it could be used to make a 100% efficient engine, which violate K-P statement.
(b) An impossible 100% efficient engine violates C statement. If it existed, it could be used to make a workless refrigerator, which violates C state-
ment.

The second law of thermodynamics (cont’d) The second law of thermodynamics
• The conversion of work to heat, as in friction or viscous fluid flow, and heat flow from hot to cold across a finite temperature gradient, are irreversible processes.• Two equivalent statements of the 2nd law state that these processes can be only partially reversed• Gases, for example, always seep spontaneously through an opening from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure.• The 2nd law is an expression of the inherent one-way aspect of this and many other irreversible processes.
• In any process in which the temperature of the working substance of the engine is intermediate between TH and TC , there must be NO heat transfer between the engine and either reservoir because such heat transfer could not be reversible.• Any process in which the temperature of the working substance changes must be adiabatic.• As heat flow through a finite temperature drop is an irreversible, during heat transfer, there must be NO finite temperature difference.
• To have the maximum efficiency of a heat engine, we must avoid all irreversible processes. Answer: Carnot cycle

• The refrigerator does work W=-|W|, takes in heat QC from the cold reservoir, and expels hear |QH| to the hot reservoir.• The superefficient heat engine expels heat |QC|, but to do so, it takes in a greater amount of heat QH+Its work output is then W+.• The net effect of the two machines together is to take a quantity of heat and convert it completely into work, which violates the 2nd law.
• No engine can be more efficient than a Carnot engine.• All Carnot engines operating between the same two temperatures have the same efficiency, irrespective of the nature of the working substance.

Entropy
Entropy and disorder
Entropy provides a quantitative measure of disorder.
Define the infinitesimal entropy change dS during an infinitesimalreversible process at absolute temperature T as:
T
dQdS
If a total amount of heat Q is added during a reversible isothermalprocess at absolute temperature T, the total entropy change is givenby:

• Higher temperature means greater randomness of motion• Adding heat Q causes a substantial fractional increase in molecular motion and randomness

Entropy (cont’d) Entropy and disorder (cont’d)
Generalization of definition of entropy change is to include ANYreversible process leading from one state to another, whetherit is isothermal or not: Let us represent the process as a series of infinitesimal reversible steps. During a step, an infinitesimal quantity of heat dQ is added to the system at absolute temperature T. Then the change of entropy for the entire process is:

dQS entropy change in a
reversible process
• The change in entropy does not depend on the path leading from the initial to the final state but is the same for all possible processes.• Since entropy is a function only of the current state of the system, we can compute entropy change in irreversible processes using the above formula. ( we need to invent a path connecting the given initial and final state that consist entirely of reversible, equilibrium processes and compute the total entropy change as for the actual path).

ExercisesProblem 2
Solution
One kilogram of water at 0oC is heated to 100oC. Compute itschange in entropy.
In practice, the process described would be done irreversibly, perhapsby setting a pan of water on an electric range whose cooking surface ismaintained at 100oC. But the entropy change of the water depends onlyon the initial and final states of the system, and is the same whetherthe process is reversible or not. Hence we can imagine that the temp.of the water is increased reversibly in a series of infinitesimal steps,in each of which the temp is raised by an infinitesimal amount dT.

After steady-state conditions have been achieved in therod, 0.160 kg of ice melts in a certain time interval. For this time interval find(a) the entropy change of the boiling water; (b) the entropy change of theice-water mixture; (c) the entropy change of the copper rod; (d) the totalentropy change of the entire system.
(a) S=Q/T=-mLf/T=-(0.160 kg)(334x103 J/kg)/(373.15 K)=-143 J/K.
(b) S=Q/T=mLf/T=(0.160 kg)(334x103 J/kg)/(273.15 K)= 196 J/K.(c) From the time equilibrium has been reached, there is no net heat exchange between the rod and its surroundings, so the entropy change of the copper rod is zero.(d) 196 J/K-143 J/K=53 J/K.
