E = Q + W
Applies to energy (J, BTU, kW-hr,
) or power (W, J/s, hp)
Work comes in several forms:
PdV, electrical, mgh, kinetic,

Conclusions
1. Heat plus work is conserved (from the First Law).
2. Heat cant be converted to work with 100% efficiency
(from the Second Law).
3. Real processes suffer from non-idealities which
generally keep them from operating close to their
thermodynamic limits (from real life, plus the Second
Law)..
Law)
4. Chemical, nuclear energy in principle are work, but
most practical devices convert them into heat, then use
heat engines to extract PdV work: Carnot limit
5. Careful accounting for energy/exergy and the limits on
what is possible is necessary for assessing new energy
proposals. Relatively easy to do, and the results are
much more solid and exact than other aspects of the
problem like financing, economics, marketing, politics.
