The Laws of Thermodynamics
... Consider a heating coil through which an electric current is being passed and which is immersed in a liquid. Once steady state is reached, the state of the coil does not change in any way, and all of the electrical energy goes into heating the liquid. Similarly, when mechanical work is done to overc ...

Basics of thermodynamics
... energy, volume, and mole numbers, the system is said to be "closed". There exist walls (adiabatic) with the property that the work done in taking an adiabatically enclosed system between two given states is determined entirely by the initial and final states, independent of all external conditions. ...

... ► Since the rate of entropy production cannot be negative, the only compressor exit states that can be attained in an adiabatic compression are those with s2 ≥ s1. This is shown on the Mollier diagram to the right. ► The state labeled 2s on the figure would be attained only in an isentropic compress ...
