The concepts of entropy and energy embody the effects of random walk in a body and of deterministic strife respectively, and are therefore often in competition. The book gives instructive examples from elementary thermodynamics and physico-chemistry and extrapolates the notion to non-standard thermodynamic subjects like shape memory, dissipation of the earth‘s atmosphere, and sociology. The works of the thermodynamic pioneers are presented, in particular Clausius, Carathéodory, Boltzmann, Gibbs, and Planck. The laws of thermodynamics and their limitations are discussed; also the pertinacious Gibbs paradox. The reader has numerous possibilities to influence the programs and thus develop an understanding for the thermodynamic principles.. | 出版日期 | Textbook 2005 | 关键词 | chemical reactions; distribution; entropy; gravitation; linear optimization; phase Transition; statistical | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-32380-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-540-24281-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-540-32380-8Series ISSN 1860-6245 Series E-ISSN 1860-6253 | issn_series | 1860-6245 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005 |
