[5], p. 426-427 thermodynamics is the study of the
thermal energy of systems. The central concept of
thermodynamics is temperature
Discuss intuitive notions of temperature. Why are
they unreliable ? What is a thermometer ?
Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics: if bodies A and B
are each in thermal equilibrium with a third body T,
then they are in thermal equilibrium with each other
MEASURING TEMPERATURE
[5], p. 427-429 We define the triple point of water to
have a temperature value of T3  273.16K
We define the temperature of any body by
T  T3 lim (p / p3 )
gas0
here p is the pressure of the gas in thermal equilibrium
with the body and p 3 is the pressure of the gas at T3

TEMPERATURE AND HEAT
[5] 9. 433 Heat is energy transferred to a system from
its environment because of a temperature difference
that exists between them
Q  CT  C(Tf  Ti )
here C equals the heat capacity of an object
One calorie (cal) is the amount of heat required that
would raise the temperature of 1 g of water from 14.5
degrees Celsius to 15.5 degrees Celsius (degrees
Celsius = degrees Kelvin – 273.15) (1 cal = 4.1860J)

FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
There exists a function of state, called the internal
energy and denoted by E int , such that
Eint  Q - W
or
dEint  dQ - dW
Special cases of thermodynamic processes include
Adiabatic, Constant-volume, Cyclical, and Free
expansions.
SECOND LAW REVISITED
Lord Kelvin : A transformation whose only final
result is to transform into work heat extracted from a
source which is at the same temperature throughout is
impossible
Rudolph Clausius : A transformation whose only
final result is to transfer heat from a body at a given
temperature to a body at a higher temperature is
impossible (this principle implies the previous one)
Martian Skeptic : What temperature ?
SECOND LAW REVISITED
Definition : Body A has higher temperature than body
B (A  B ) if, when we bring them into thermal
contact, heat flows from A to B. Body A has the same
temperature as B ( A  B) if, when we bring them
into thermal contact, no heat flows from 
A to B and no
heat flows from B to A. ( [A] := {U | U A} )
Enrico Fermi : (Clausius Reformulated) If heat
flows by conduction from a body A to another
body B, then a transformation whose only final
result is to transfer heat from B to A is impossible.
SECOND LAW REVISITED
Sadi Carnot : If A  B then we can use
a reversible engine to absorb a quantity
Q A  0 of heat from A, surrender a
quantity of heat Q A  Q B  0 to B,
and perform a quantity of work W  0.
Carnot & Kelvin implies Clausius, and
Q A Q B  f ([A], [B]), and for B  C,
f ([A], [B]) f ([B], [C])  f ([A], [C])
SECOND LAW REVISITED
Definition : Absolute Thermodynamic Temperature
Choose a body D
If A  D
AD
DA
then T( A)  f ([ A], [D])
then T( A)  1
then T( A)  1 f ([ D], [A])
In a reversible process
Q A T( A)  Q B T( B)  0
SECOND LAW REVISITED
System : Cylinder that has a movable piston and
contains a fixed amount of homogeneous fluid
States (Macroscopic) : Region in positive quadrant
of the (V = volume, T = temperature) plane.
Functions (on region) : V, T, p = pressure
Paths (in region) : Oriented curves 
Differential Forms : can be integrated over paths

EQUIPARTITION
Number of ways of partitioning N objects into
m bins with relative frequencies (probabilities)
p1 , p 2 ,..., p m is C  N! (p1N)!... (p m N)!
Stirling’s formula ( ln N! N ln N - N ) yields
ln C  N H(p1,..., p m ) where H(p1,..., p m )
denotes Shannon’s information-theoretic entropy
H(p1,..., p m )   p1 ln p1    p m ln p m 
EQUIPARTITION
If the bins correspond to energies, then
H(p1,..., p m ), and therefore (nearly) C,
is maximized, subject to an energy constraint
E  N(p1E1    p m E m ), by the Gibbs
distribution pi  exp(  E i kT ) Z(T)
S  k ln C

and free energy E  TS   NkT ln Z(T)
