Heat Engines, Entropy, and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
... In simpler terms, energy does not transfer spontaneously by heat from a cold object to a hot object. Work input is required to run a refrigerator. The Clausius and Kelvin–Planck statements of the second law of thermodynamics appear at first sight to be unrelated, but in fact they are equivalent in a ...

The First Law of Thermodynamics
... A few hundred years ago when people were investigating heat and temperature phenomena, the idea was that heat was some kind of invisible caloric fluid which could flow from one material to another. This is the origin of the word calorie, which we now know as a form of energy. A calorie can be define ...
