Limitation of First Law
• Satisfying the first law does not ensure that the process can
actually occur.

• The reverse processes discussed sub in the previous slide violate the
bu
second law of thermodynamics. This .in violation is easily detected
with the help of a property, called entropy

Statements of Second Law

Clausius statement
It is impossible to construct a device which operates in a cycle and whose
sole effect is to transfer heat from a cooler body to a hotter body.

Kelvin-Planck Statement
It is impossible for any system to operate in a thermodynamic cycle and
deliver a net amount of energy by work to its surroundings while receiving
energy by heat transfer from a single thermal reservoir.

Heat transfer between two different temperatures can be carried
out in a reversible way by using a reversible heat engine or heat
pump. In this case, however, a part of the transferring
heat converts into work or a part of the transferring heat is
created by work.

Carnot’s Principles
1. The efficiency of an irreversible
heat engine is always less than
the efficiency of a reversible one
operating between the same two
reservoirs.

2. The efficiencies of all reversibleubbu
.
heat engines operating between in
the same two reservoirs are the
same.

No heat engine can have a higher efficiency than a reversible heat engine
operating between the same high- and low-temperature reservoirs.

Uses of Second Law
• Second law helps us to find the maximum possible efficiency of
heat engines, and coefficient of performances of refrigeration
systems and heat pumps
