Introduction
It
is
a
matter
of
everyday
experience that there is a definite
direction
for
spontaneous
processes
Spontaneous processes are
natural
occurrence processes with the
tendency
of attaining equilibrium
Examples of Spontaneous
Processes
An hot object at temperature Ti placed in an
environment of temperature To get cools to a
Temperature T and eventually has a temperature
To.
In conformity with the conservation of energy
principle, internal energy lost by the object equals
the internal energy gained by the environment.
Inverse
process
would
not
take
place
spontaneously
i.e Internal energy of the
environment would not decrease
spontaneously, while the object
warmed from To to Ti

In each case described above, initial
condition of the system could be
restored, but not in a spontaneous
process.
Auxiliary devices would be required.
These devices would required energy
input to perform, resulting into
permanent change in the condition of
Introduction
Spontaneous processes can proceed only in
a particular direction. The first law of
thermodynamics gives no information
about direction; it states only that when
one form of energy is converted into
another, identical quantities of energy are
involved regardless of the feasibility of the
process.
First law fails to address both the direction
of the process and the extent of change of
energy from one form to another. Hence,
another general principle is required.
Introduction
Can one form of energy be
completely converted to another
form? In practice, when energy is
transferred from one form to
another,
there
is
often
a
degradation of the supplied energy
into a less useful form.
Second Law of Thermodynamics
addresses
some
of
these
difficulties
Statement 2
No process is
possible solely in
the transfer of
heat from one
temperature
level to a higher
one.
Statement 1a
It is impossible by a cyclic process
to convert the heat absorbed by
a system completely into work
done by the system
Heat Engine
Work can be easily converted completely to other forms
of energy
Converting other forms of energy to work is not that
easy
Work can be converted to heat directly and completely
Heat can be converted to work directly, but not
completely
Converting heat to work requires the use of a device
called a heat engine
Heat engines come in many forms, pure heat engines
(steam power plants) and semi heat engines
(gas turbines)
Each heat engine operates by using
a working substance (fluid).

1. The data listed below are claimed for a
power cycle operating between
reservours at 527 C and 27 C. In each
case determine if any principles of
thermodynamics would be violated
a) = 700 kJ, = 400 kJ, = 300 kJ
b) = 640 kJ, = 400 kJ, = 240 kJ
c) = 640 kJ, = 400 kJ, = 200 kJ
Solution
= 527 C = (527 + 273) K = 800 K
= 27 C = (27 + 273) K = 300 K
Principles of thermodynamics would be violated
once the efficiency is greater than that of Carnot
engine or conservation of energy principle is
violated
