THE SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
Kelvin – Planck Statement: It is impossible for any device that operates on a cycle
to receive heat from a single reservoir and
produce a net amount of work
For heat engine to operate, the working fluid has
to exchange heat with heat sink as well with the heat source.

nd
law claims that
no heat engine can be

efficient:
Clausius Statement: No device can operate on a cycle and produce effect
that is solely the heat transfer from
a lower-temperature body to a higher-temperature body
There are devices that can transfer heat
from lower-temperature reservoirs to higher-temperature reservoirs
but they have also to consume some energy W
in
Equivalence of
two statements:
If some device
violates one statement,
it also violates
the other statement,
and vice versa.
