described by the thermodynamic parameters characterizing
the system.
Equation of state

Heat
Historically, the concept of heat was difficult to quantify because
it is an energy flow based on microscopic actions rather than
Correlated macroscopic action.
If energy “enters a system” by some correlated motion, i.e., the
movement of a piston, we consider that as work.
If energy enters a system owing to some microscopic transport,
i.e., hot piston uncorrelated motion of molecules, we consider that
as heat.
If,

Heat Transport
Quite generally all transport processes can be described by an
equation of the form,
v =
m
x
F,
where
v
is a generalized velocity
or flux of transport and
F
is a generalized force.
This works for thermal transport, mass transport, electrical
transport, etc. All transport equations take the following form,
j =
-
k

.
In the case of heat transport the heat flux is given by,

The minus sign is there because the flux is always in a direction

Sign convention:
The work is taken negative if it increases the energy in the system. If the volume
of the system is decreased work is done on the system, increasing its energy; hence the positive sign
in the equation
. The unusual convention was established to fit the behavior of heat
engines whose normal operation involves the input of heat and the output of work. So according to
this unfortunate convention work is positive if the engine is doing its job. Note that some textbooks
e.g.,
Equilibrium Thermodynamics
by Adkins will write the first law as which is
more in line with results in the
opposite sign convention
for work. In this convention positive work is
work going in to a system raising its energy. So, the manner in which you write the first law
establishes the sign convention that you use.

Simple thermodynamic system
A system that is macroscopically homo
-
geneous, isotropic, and uncharged, that is
large enough so that surface effects can
be neglected, and that is not acted on by
external electric, magnetic or gravitational
fields.
All thermodynamic systems have an enor
-
mous number of atomic coordinates. Only
a few of of these survive the statistical
averaging associated with a transition to a
macroscopic description. Certain of these
coordinates are “mechanical” in nature.
Thermodynamics is concerned with
consequences
of atomic coordinates that,
by virtue of the
coarseness
of observation,
do not appear in a macroscopic description
of the system.
Thermodynamic Equilibrium
In all systems there is a tendency to
evolve toward states in which the
properties are determined by intrinsic
factors and not by previously applied
external influences. Such simple
terminal states are time independent
and are called equilibrium states.
Equilibrium states of simple systems
are characterized completely by the
internal energy

V
, and
the mole numbers

Internal Energy
Macroscopic systems have a definite and precise energy energy subject to
a conservation principle. The energy of the universe is the same
today as it was eons ago.
Thermodynamics is concerned with measuring energy differences of a
system owing to external influences. We can easily determine the energy
difference between two equilibrium states of a system by enclosing the
system with
adiabatic
walls so that energy change can only occur by
doing some form of mechanical work on the system.
For a simple hydrostatic system (
pdV
work term) the change in internal energy
is describable in terms of any two of the variables p, V and T since the third is
by an equation of state (for an ideal gas,
pV = nRT
):
22
Heat
The heat
flux to a system in any process is simply the difference in
internal energy between the final and initial states plus the work done in
that process,
.
Heat is what is adsorbed by a system if its temperature changes while no
work is done. If
Q
is the small amount of heat adsorbed in a system causing
a temperature change of
dT
the ratio
Q
/
dT
is called the
heat capacity
C
, of
that system. The
specific heat
c
, is the heat capacity per unit mass. For
example the heat capacity per mole of substance or the molar heat capacity
is defined as;
Specific heat
In the case of a hydrostatic system the heat capacity is unique when constraints
of either constant pressure or volume are imposed so that
23
Here the symbol
H
is a thermodynamic potential or “energy” called the
enthalpy

The second of the set of equalities is easily demonstrated just by writing out the
first law,
and substituting for
dU
obtaining
At constant volume,
24
If we try to do the same thing for
C
p
we run in to a problem because of
the form of the internal energy function,
At constant pressure
You can see that this is messy compared to the simple equation for
C
V
. It is
convenient to define a new function
H
, such that
dH
=
d(U+pV).
