The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of an isolated system can never decrease over time, and is constant if and only if all processes are reversible.[1] Isolated systems spontaneously evolve towards thermodynamic equilibrium, the state with maximum entropy.

The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of an isolated system can never decrease over time, and is constant if and only if all processes are reversible. Isolated systems spontaneously evolve towards thermodynamic equilibrium, the state with maximum entropy.

热力学第二定律指出,孤立系统的总熵永远不会随着时间而减少,而且只有当且仅当所有过程都是可逆的时,总熵才是恒定的。孤立的系统自发地进化到热力学平衡状态,即熵最大的状态。



The total entropy of a system and its surroundings can remain constant in ideal cases where the system is in thermodynamic equilibrium, or is undergoing a (fictive) reversible process. In all processes that occur, including spontaneous processes,[2] the total entropy of the system and its surroundings increases and the process is irreversible in the thermodynamic sense. The increase in entropy accounts for the irreversibility of natural processes, and the asymmetry between future and past.[3]

系统及其周围环境的总熵在理想情况下可以保持不变,在这种情况下,系统处于热力学平衡期,或者正在经历一个(虚拟的)可逆过程期。在所有发生的过程中,包括自发过程,系统及其周围环境的总熵增加,这一过程在热力学意义上是不可逆的。熵的增加解释了自然过程的不可逆性,以及未来和过去之间的不对称性。



Historically, the second law was an empirical finding that was accepted as an axiom of thermodynamic theory. Statistical mechanics, classical or quantum, explains the microscopic origin of the law.

从历史上看,第二定律是一个经验性的发现,被公认为热力学理论的公理。统计力学,无论是经典的还是量子的,都可以解释这个定律的微观起源。



The second law has been expressed in many ways. Its first formulation is credited to the French scientist Sadi Carnot, who in 1824 showed that there is an upper limit to the efficiency of conversion of heat to work in a heat engine. This aspect of the second law is also known as Carnot's rule or limit.[4]

The first law of thermodynamics provides the definition of the internal energy of a thermodynamic system, and expresses the law of conservation of energy.[5][6] The second law is concerned with the direction of natural processes.[7] It asserts that a natural process runs only in one sense, and is not reversible. For example, when a path for conduction and radiation is made available, heat always flows spontaneously from a hotter to a colder body. Such phenomena are accounted for in terms of entropy.[8][9] If an isolated system is held initially in internal thermodynamic equilibrium by internal partitioning impermeable walls, and then some operation makes the walls more permeable, then the system spontaneously evolves to reach a final new internal thermodynamic equilibrium, and its total entropy, S, increases.

能量守恒定律提供了热力学系统内能的定义,并表达了能量守恒定律。第二定律与自然过程的方向有关。它断言自然过程只在一种意义上运行,而且是不可逆的。例如,当有了传导和辐射的路径时,热总是自发地从一个较热的物体流向一个较冷的物体。这种现象可以用熵来解释。如果一个孤立的系统最初是通过内部分隔不可渗透的墙来保持在内部热力学平衡,然后一些操作使墙更具渗透性,那么系统自发地进化到最终达到一个新的内部热力学平衡,其总熵增加。



In a fictive reversible process, an infinitesimal increment in the entropy (dS) of a system is defined to result from an infinitesimal transfer of heat (δQ) to a closed system (which allows the entry or exit of energy – but not transfer of matter) divided by the common temperature (T) of the system in equilibrium and the surroundings which supply the heat:[10]

在虚构的可逆过程中,系统熵的无穷小增量被定义为由无穷小的热量传递()到一个封闭系统(允许能量进入或出去,但不允许物质传递)除以平衡系统和提供热量的环境的共同温度() :

[math]\displaystyle{ \mathrm dS = \frac{\delta Q}{T} \,\, \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, \text {(closed system, idealized fictive reversible process)}. }[/math]

(闭合系统,理想化的可逆过程) / math



Different notations are used for infinitesimal amounts of heat (δ) and infinitesimal amounts of entropy (d) because entropy is a function of state, while heat, like work, is not. For an actually possible infinitesimal process without exchange of mass with the surroundings, the second law requires that the increment in system entropy fulfills the inequality [11][12]

用不同的符号表示无穷小量的热量()和无穷小量的熵() ,因为熵是状态的函数,而热量和功一样不是。第二定律要求系统熵的增量满足不等式,对于实际上可能存在的不与环境发生质量交换的无穷小过程,系统熵增量满足不等式

This is because a general process for this case may include work being done on the system by its surroundings, which can have frictional or viscous effects inside the system, because a chemical reaction may be in progress, or because heat transfer actually occurs only irreversibly, driven by a finite difference between the system temperature (T) and the temperature of the surroundings (Tsurr).[13][14] Note that the equality still applies for pure heat flow,[15]

这是因为这种情况下的一般过程可能包括周围环境对系统所做的功,这可能在系统内部产生摩擦或粘滞效应,因为一个化学反应可能正在进行,或者因为热传递实际上只是不可逆地发生,由系统温度()和周围环境温度(sub surr / sub)之间的差分驱动。

The second term represents work of internal variables that can be perturbed by external influences, but the system cannot perform any positive work via internal variables. This statement introduces the impossibility of the reversion of evolution of the thermodynamic system in time and can be considered as a formulation of the second principle of thermodynamics – the formulation, which is, of course, equivalent to the formulation of the principle in terms of entropy.[17][18]

The zeroth law of thermodynamics in its usual short statement allows recognition that two bodies in a relation of thermal equilibrium have the same temperature, especially that a test body has the same temperature as a reference thermometric body.[19] For a body in thermal equilibrium with another, there are indefinitely many empirical temperature scales, in general respectively depending on the properties of a particular reference thermometric body. The second law allows模板:How? a distinguished temperature scale, which defines an absolute, thermodynamic temperature, independent of the properties of any particular reference thermometric body.[20][21]

Carnot's principle

Carnot's principle

卡诺原理



The historical origin[23] of the second law of thermodynamics was in Carnot's principle. It refers to a cycle of a Carnot heat engine, fictively operated in the limiting mode of extreme slowness known as quasi-static, so that the heat and work transfers are between subsystems that are always in their own internal states of thermodynamic equilibrium. The Carnot engine is an idealized device of special interest to engineers who are concerned with the efficiency of heat engines. Carnot's principle was recognized by Carnot at a time when the caloric theory of heat was seriously considered, before the recognition of the first law of thermodynamics, and before the mathematical expression of the concept of entropy. Interpreted in the light of the first law, it is physically equivalent to the second law of thermodynamics, and remains valid today. Carnot's original arguments were made from the viewpoint of the caloric theory, before the discovery of the first law of thermodynamics. Some samples from his book are:

热力学第二定律的历史起源源于卡诺的原则。它指的是一个卡诺热机周期,虚拟地以被称为准静态的极慢极限模式运行,因此热量和功量在子系统之间传递,这些子系统始终处于它们自己的内部热力学平衡状态。卡诺发动机是热机效率工程师特别感兴趣的理想设备。卡诺认识到卡诺原理的时候,正是热量热理论被认真考虑的时候,正是能量守恒定律理论被认识之前,正是熵概念的数学表达之前。根据第一定律的解释,它在物理上等同于热力学第二定律,并且在今天仍然有效。卡诺最初的论点是从卡路里理论的观点提出的,直到能量守恒定律的发现。以下是他书中的一些例子:



...wherever there exists a difference of temperature, motive power can be produced.[24]

...wherever there exists a difference of temperature, motive power can be produced.

只要有温差,就能产生动力。



The production of motive power is then due in steam engines not to an actual consumption of caloric, but to its transportation from a warm body to a cold body ...[25]

动力的产生不是由于蒸汽机实际消耗的热量,而是由于它从一个温暖的物体运输到一个寒冷的物体..。



The motive power of heat is independent of the agents employed to realize it; its quantity is fixed solely by the temperatures of the bodies between which is effected, finally, the transfer of caloric.[26]

热的动力与实现热的媒介无关,热的数量完全取决于两个物体之间的温度,最后是热量的传递。





In modern terms, Carnot's principle may be stated more precisely:

用现代术语来说,卡诺的原则可能更为准确:



The efficiency of a quasi-static or reversible Carnot cycle depends only on the temperatures of the two heat reservoirs, and is the same, whatever the working substance. A Carnot engine operated in this way is the most efficient possible heat engine using those two temperatures.[27][28][29][30][31][32]

克劳修斯的陈述使用了“热量通道”的概念。正如通常在热力学的讨论,这意味着“能量作为热量的净转移” ,并没有提到促成转移的一种方式和其他。



Heat cannot spontaneously flow from cold regions to hot regions without external work being performed on the system, which is evident from ordinary experience of refrigeration, for example. In a refrigerator, heat flows from cold to hot, but only when forced by an external agent, the refrigeration system.

从克劳修斯陈述推导出开尔文陈述

Suppose there is an engine violating the Kelvin statement: i.e., one that drains heat and converts it completely into work in a cyclic fashion without any other result. Now pair it with a reversed Carnot engine as shown by the figure. The efficiency of a normal heat engine is η and so the efficiency of the reversed heat engine is 1/η. The net and sole effect of the combined pair of engines is to transfer heat [math]\displaystyle{ \Delta Q=Q\left(\frac{1}{\eta}-1\right) }[/math] from the cooler reservoir to the hotter one, which violates the Clausius statement. (This is a consequence of the first law of thermodynamics, as for the total system's energy to remain the same, [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Input}+\text{Output}=0 \implies Q-\frac{Q}{\eta} = -Q_c }[/math], so therefore [math]\displaystyle{ Q_c=Q\left( \frac{1}{\eta}-1\right) }[/math] ). Thus a violation of the Kelvin statement implies a violation of the Clausius statement, i.e. the Clausius statement implies the Kelvin statement. We can prove in a similar manner that the Kelvin statement implies the Clausius statement, and hence the two are equivalent.

Constantin Carathéodory formulated thermodynamics on a purely mathematical axiomatic foundation. His statement of the second law is known as the Principle of Carathéodory, which may be formulated as follows:

康斯坦丁·卡拉西奥多里在纯数学公理的基础上制定了热力学公式。他对第二定律的陈述被称为 carath odory 原理,可以这样表述:

In every neighborhood of any state S of an adiabatically enclosed system there are states inaccessible from S.[42]

In every neighborhood of any state S of an adiabatically enclosed system there are states inaccessible from S.

在绝热封闭系统的任何状态 s 的每个邻域中,都有从 s / blockquote 不可达的状态

With this formulation, he described the concept of adiabatic accessibility for the first time and provided the foundation for a new subfield of classical thermodynamics, often called geometrical thermodynamics. It follows from Carathéodory's principle that quantity of energy quasi-statically transferred as heat is a holonomic process function, in other words, [math]\displaystyle{ \delta Q=TdS }[/math].[43] 模板:Clarify

This formulation does not mention heat and does not mention temperature, nor even entropy, and does not necessarily implicitly rely on those concepts, but it implies the content of the second law. A closely related statement is that "Frictional pressure never does positive work."[47] Planck wrote: "The production of heat by friction is irreversible."[48][49]

A closely related statement is that "Frictional pressure never does positive work." Planck wrote: "The production of heat by friction is irreversible."

这个公式没有提到热,没有提到温度,甚至没有提到熵,也不一定隐含地依赖于这些概念,但它暗示了第二定律的内容。一个密切相关的陈述是,“摩擦压力从来不起正作用。”普朗克写道: “摩擦产生热是不可逆的。”



Not mentioning entropy, this principle of Planck is stated in physical terms. It is very closely related to the Kelvin statement given just above.[50] It is relevant that for a system at constant volume and mole numbers, the entropy is a monotonic function of the internal energy. Nevertheless, this principle of Planck is not actually Planck's preferred statement of the second law, which is quoted above, in a previous sub-section of the present section of this present article, and relies on the concept of entropy.

更不用说熵了,这个普朗克定律是用物理术语来表述的。它与上面给出的开尔文陈述非常密切相关。相关的是,对于恒定体积和摩尔数的系统,熵是内能的单调函数。然而,普朗克的这个原理实际上并不是普朗克对第二定律的首选陈述,而是依赖于熵的概念。



A statement that in a sense is complementary to Planck's principle is made by Borgnakke and Sonntag. They do not offer it as a full statement of the second law:

在某种意义上说,这是对普朗克原理的补充,这是由 Borgnakke 和 Sonntag 提出的。他们没有将其作为第二定律的完整陈述:

Differing from Planck's just foregoing principle, this one is explicitly in terms of entropy change. Removal of matter from a system can also decrease its entropy.

Before the establishment of the second law, many people who were interested in inventing a perpetual motion machine had tried to circumvent the restrictions of first law of thermodynamics by extracting the massive internal energy of the environment as the power of the machine. Such a machine is called a "perpetual motion machine of the second kind". The second law declared the impossibility of such machines.

卡诺定理

Carnot's theorem (1824) is a principle that limits the maximum efficiency for any possible engine. The efficiency solely depends on the temperature difference between the hot and cold thermal reservoirs. Carnot's theorem states:

卡诺定理(1824)是一个限制任何可能的发动机的最大效率的原则。效率完全取决于热库和冷库之间的温差。卡诺定理指出:

  • All irreversible heat engines between two heat reservoirs are less efficient than a Carnot engine operating between the same reservoirs.


  • All reversible heat engines between two heat reservoirs are equally efficient with a Carnot engine operating between the same reservoirs.




In his ideal model, the heat of caloric converted into work could be reinstated by reversing the motion of the cycle, a concept subsequently known as thermodynamic reversibility. Carnot, however, further postulated that some caloric is lost, not being converted to mechanical work. Hence, no real heat engine could realise the Carnot cycle's reversibility and was condemned to be less efficient.

在他的理想模型中,热量转换成功的热量可以通过反转循环的运动而恢复,这个概念后来被称为热力学可逆性。然而,卡诺进一步假定,一些热量损失了,并没有转化为机械功。因此,没有一个真正的热机能够实现卡诺循环的可逆性,并且被认为效率较低。

The equality holds in the reversible case[54] and the strict inequality holds in the irreversible case. The reversible case is used to introduce the state function entropy. This is because in cyclic processes the variation of a state function is zero from state functionality.

Thus, a negative value of the change in free energy (G or A) is a necessary condition for a process to be spontaneous. This is the most useful form of the second law of thermodynamics in chemistry, where free-energy changes can be calculated from tabulated enthalpies of formation and standard molar entropies of reactants and products.[16] [11] The chemical equilibrium condition at constant T and p without electrical work is dG = 0.

The first theory of the conversion of heat into mechanical work is due to Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot in 1824. He was the first to realize correctly that the efficiency of this conversion depends on the difference of temperature between an engine and its environment.

第一个把热转化为机械功的理论是在1824年由尼古拉·莱昂纳尔·萨迪·卡诺提出的。他是第一个正确认识到这种转换的效率取决于发动机和环境之间的温差。



Recognizing the significance of James Prescott Joule's work on the conservation of energy, Rudolf Clausius was the first to formulate the second law during 1850, in this form: heat does not flow spontaneously from cold to hot bodies. While common knowledge now, this was contrary to the caloric theory of heat popular at the time, which considered heat as a fluid. From there he was able to infer the principle of Sadi Carnot and the definition of entropy (1865).

认识到詹姆斯·普雷斯科特·焦耳在能量守恒方面工作的重要性,Rudolf Clausius 在1850年第一个提出了第二定律: 热不会自发地从冷物体流向热物体。虽然现在的常识是,这与当时流行的热量理论相反,热量理论认为热量是一种流体。从那里他能够推断出萨迪卡诺定律和熵的定义(1865年)。



Established during the 19th century, the Kelvin-Planck statement of the Second Law says, "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." This was shown to be equivalent to the statement of Clausius.

建立于19世纪的开尔文-普朗克第二定律(Kelvin-Planck)说,“任何循环运行的设备都不可能从单个蓄热体接收热量,并产生净功。”这被证明相当于克劳修斯的陈述。



The ergodic hypothesis is also important for the Boltzmann approach. It says that, over long periods of time, the time spent in some region of the phase space of microstates with the same energy is proportional to the volume of this region, i.e. that all accessible microstates are equally probable over a long period of time. Equivalently, it says that time average and average over the statistical ensemble are the same.

遍历假设对玻尔兹曼方法也很重要。它说,在很长一段时间内,在具有相同能量的微观态的相空间的某些区域所花费的时间与这个区域的体积成正比,即。在很长一段时间内,所有可访问的微观状态的可能性都是一样的。同样的,它表明时间平均值和系综平均值是相同的。



There is a traditional doctrine, starting with Clausius, that entropy can be understood in terms of molecular 'disorder' within a macroscopic system. This doctrine is obsolescent.[55][56][57]

This statement is the best-known phrasing of the second law. Because of the looseness of its language, e.g. universe, as well as lack of specific conditions, e.g. open, closed, or isolated, many people take this simple statement to mean that the second law of thermodynamics applies virtually to every subject imaginable. This is not true; this statement is only a simplified version of a more extended and precise description.

Statistical mechanics

统计力学



Statistical mechanics gives an explanation for the second law by postulating that a material is composed of atoms and molecules which are in constant motion. A particular set of positions and velocities for each particle in the system is called a microstate of the system and because of the constant motion, the system is constantly changing its microstate. Statistical mechanics postulates that, in equilibrium, each microstate that the system might be in is equally likely to occur, and when this assumption is made, it leads directly to the conclusion that the second law must hold in a statistical sense. That is, the second law will hold on average, with a statistical variation on the order of 1/模板:Radic where N is the number of particles in the system. For everyday (macroscopic) situations, the probability that the second law will be violated is practically zero. However, for systems with a small number of particles, thermodynamic parameters, including the entropy, may show significant statistical deviations from that predicted by the second law. Classical thermodynamic theory does not deal with these statistical variations.

通过假设物质是由不断运动的原子和分子组成的,统计力学对第二定律给出了解释。系统中每个粒子的一组特定的位置和速度称为系统的微观状态,由于系统的不断运动,系统不断地改变其微观状态。统计力学假设,在平衡状态下,系统可能处于的每个微观状态发生的可能性是相等的,当这个假设被提出时,它直接导致了第二定律必须在统计意义上成立的结论。也就是说,第二定律平均成立,其中 n 是系统中粒子数的1 / 数量级的统计变化。在日常(宏观)情况下,违反第二定律的概率几乎为零。然而,对于粒子数量很少的系统,热力学参数,包括熵,可能显示出与第二定律预测的显著的统计偏差。经典热力学理论没有处理这些统计变量。

Due to Loschmidt's paradox, derivations of the Second Law have to make an assumption regarding the past, namely that the system is uncorrelated at some time in the past; this allows for simple probabilistic treatment. This assumption is usually thought as a boundary condition, and thus the second Law is ultimately a consequence of the initial conditions somewhere in the past, probably at the beginning of the universe (the Big Bang), though other scenarios have also been suggested.[59][60][61]

由于洛施密特悖论,第二定律的导出必须对过去做出一个假设,即系统在过去的某个时刻是不相关的;这样的假设允许进行简单的概率处理。这个假设通常被认为是一个边界条件,因此热力学第二定律最终是过去某个地方的初始条件的结果,可能是在宇宙的开始(大爆炸) 。也有人提出了其他假设。



Given these assumptions, in statistical mechanics, the Second Law is not a postulate, rather it is a consequence of the fundamental postulate, also known as the equal prior probability postulate, so long as one is clear that simple probability arguments are applied only to the future, while for the past there are auxiliary sources of information which tell us that it was low entropy.[citation needed] The first part of the second law, which states that the entropy of a thermally isolated system can only increase, is a trivial consequence of the equal prior probability postulate, if we restrict the notion of the entropy to systems in thermal equilibrium.

Suppose we have an isolated system whose macroscopic state is specified by a number of variables. These macroscopic variables can, e.g., refer to the total volume, the positions of pistons in the system, etc. Then [math]\displaystyle{ \Omega }[/math] will depend on the values of these variables. If a variable is not fixed, (e.g. we do not clamp a piston in a certain position), then because all the accessible states are equally likely in equilibrium, the free variable in equilibrium will be such that [math]\displaystyle{ \Omega }[/math] is maximized as that is the most probable situation in equilibrium.

If the variable was initially fixed to some value then upon release and when the new equilibrium has been reached, the fact the variable will adjust itself so that [math]\displaystyle{ \Omega }[/math] is maximized, implies that the entropy will have increased or it will have stayed the same (if the value at which the variable was fixed happened to be the equilibrium value).

如果变量最初固定到某个值,然后在释放时,当达到新的平衡时,变量将自我调整,使 math Omega / math 最大化,这意味着熵将增加或保持不变(如果变量固定的值恰好是平衡值)。

Suppose we start from an equilibrium situation and we suddenly remove a constraint on a variable. Then right after we do this, there are a number [math]\displaystyle{ \Omega }[/math] of accessible microstates, but equilibrium has not yet been reached, so the actual probabilities of the system being in some accessible state are not yet equal to the prior probability of [math]\displaystyle{ 1/\Omega }[/math]. We have already seen that in the final equilibrium state, the entropy will have increased or have stayed the same relative to the previous equilibrium state. Boltzmann's H-theorem, however, proves that the quantity H increases monotonically as a function of time during the intermediate out of equilibrium state.

See here for the justification for this definition. Suppose that the system has some external parameter, x, that can be changed. In general, the energy eigenstates of the system will depend on x. According to the adiabatic theorem of quantum mechanics, in the limit of an infinitely slow change of the system's Hamiltonian, the system will stay in the same energy eigenstate and thus change its energy according to the change in energy of the energy eigenstate it is in.

请参阅此处对此定义的正当理由。假设系统有一些可以改变的外部参数 x。一般来说,系统的能量本征态将依赖于 x。根据量子力学的绝热定理,在系统哈密顿量无限缓慢变化的极限下,系统将保持在相同的定态,因此系统的能量会随着其所在定态的能量变化而变化。



The generalized force, X, corresponding to the external variable x is defined such that [math]\displaystyle{ X dx }[/math] is the work performed by the system if x is increased by an amount dx. E.g., if x is the volume, then X is the pressure. The generalized force for a system known to be in energy eigenstate [math]\displaystyle{ E_{r} }[/math] is given by:

There are two principal ways of formulating thermodynamics, (a) through passages from one state of thermodynamic equilibrium to another, and (b) through cyclic processes, by which the system is left unchanged, while the total entropy of the surroundings is increased. These two ways help to understand the processes of life. This topic is mostly beyond the scope of this present article, but has been considered by several authors, such as Erwin Schrödinger, Léon Brillouin[62] and Isaac Asimov. It is also the topic of current模板:When research.[citation needed]

表述热力学主要有两种方式:(a)描述从一种热力学平衡状态到另一种状态的路径,(b)通过使系统保持不变,同时增加周围环境的总熵的循环过程。这两种方法有助于理解生命过程。这个话题大大超出了本文的范围,但是已经有一些研究者考虑过这个问题,比如埃尔温·薛定谔、莱昂·布里渊和艾萨克.阿西莫夫。这也是当前研究的主题。



To a fair approximation, living organisms may be considered as examples of (b). Approximately, an animal's physical state cycles by the day, leaving the animal nearly unchanged. Animals take in food, water, and oxygen, and, as a result of metabolism, give out breakdown products and heat. Plants take in radiative energy from the sun, which may be regarded as heat, and carbon dioxide and water. They give out oxygen. In this way they grow. Eventually they die, and their remains rot away, turning mostly back into carbon dioxide and water. This can be regarded as a cyclic process. Overall, the sunlight is from a high temperature source, the sun, and its energy is passed to a lower temperature sink, i.e. radiated into space. This is an increase of entropy of the surroundings of the plant. Thus animals and plants obey the second law of thermodynamics, considered in terms of cyclic processes. Simple concepts of efficiency of heat engines are hardly applicable to this problem because they assume closed systems.

从近似的角度来看,生命体可以被认为是(b)的一个例子。近似地,一只动物的身体状态每天循环,使得它几乎没有什么变化。动物吸收食物、水和氧气,经过新陈代谢,输出分解的产物和热量。植物吸收来自太阳的辐射能量,这可以认为是热量,以及二氧化碳和水,然后它们释放氧气。它们就是这样生长的,最终会死亡,尸体腐烂,大部分重新变成二氧化碳和水。这可以看作是一个循环过程。总的来说,阳光来自一个高温的源——太阳,它的能量被传递到一个较低的温度汇,例如向太空辐射。这个过程使得植物周围环境的熵增加。因此从循环过程的角度来看,动物和植物服从热力学第二定律。简单的热机效率概念很难适用于这个问题,因为它们假定系统是封闭的。



From the thermodynamic viewpoint that considers (a), passages from one equilibrium state to another, only a roughly approximate picture appears, because living organisms are never in states of thermodynamic equilibrium. Living organisms must often be considered as open systems, because they take in nutrients and give out waste products. Thermodynamics of open systems is currently often considered in terms of passages from one state of thermodynamic equilibrium to another, or in terms of flows in the approximation of local thermodynamic equilibrium. The problem for living organisms may be further simplified by the approximation of assuming a steady state with unchanging flows. General principles of entropy production for such approximations are subject to unsettled current debate or research. Nevertheless, ideas derived from this viewpoint on the second law of thermodynamics are enlightening about living creatures.

从(a)的热力学观点考虑 ,即考虑从一个平衡状态到另一个平衡状态的路径,只会产生一个粗略近似的图像,因为生命体从来不会处于热力学平衡状态。生物体经常必须被认为是开放的系统,因为它们吸收营养物质并排出废弃物。开放系统热力学目前通常从一个热力学平衡状态到另一个状态的路径的角度来考虑,或者是考虑局部热力学平衡近似下的流。生命体的问题可以通过假定一个流不变的稳态来进一步简化。对于这样的近似,熵产生的一般原理在目前有争论和研究的不确定性。尽管如此,从热力学第二定律的这个角度出发衍生出来的想法对生物是有启发意义的。

Gravitational systems

Gravitational systems

重力系统



In systems that do not require for their descriptions the general theory of relativity, bodies always have positive heat capacity, meaning that the temperature rises with energy. Therefore, when energy flows from a high-temperature object to a low-temperature object, the source temperature is decreased while the sink temperature is increased; hence temperature differences tend to diminish over time. This is not always the case for systems in which the gravitational force is important and the general theory of relativity is required. Such systems can spontaneously change towards uneven spread of mass and energy. This applies to the universe in large scale, and consequently it may be difficult or impossible to apply the second law to it.[63] Beyond this, the thermodynamics of systems described by the general theory of relativity is beyond the scope of the present article.

在不需要描述广义相对论的系统中,物体总是具有正的热容,这意味着温度随着能量的增加而升高。因此,当能量从高温物体流向低温物体时,源温度降低,而汇温度升高; 因此温差随时间而减小。这种情况并不总是发生在那些需要引力和广义相对论的系统中。这样的系统可以自发地朝着质量和能量不均匀分布的方向变化。这在大尺度上适用于宇宙,因此可能很难或不可能将第二定律应用于宇宙。除此之外,广义相对论所描述的系统热力学超出了本文的范围。

The theory of classical or equilibrium thermodynamics is idealized. A main postulate or assumption, often not even explicitly stated, is the existence of systems in their own internal states of thermodynamic equilibrium. In general, a region of space containing a physical system at a given time, that may be found in nature, is not in thermodynamic equilibrium, read in the most stringent terms. In looser terms, nothing in the entire universe is or has ever been truly in exact thermodynamic equilibrium.[63][64]

For purposes of physical analysis, it is often enough convenient to make an assumption of thermodynamic equilibrium. Such an assumption may rely on trial and error for its justification. If the assumption is justified, it can often be very valuable and useful because it makes available the theory of thermodynamics. Elements of the equilibrium assumption are that a system is observed to be unchanging over an indefinitely long time, and that there are so many particles in a system, that its particulate nature can be entirely ignored. Under such an equilibrium assumption, in general, there are no macroscopically detectable fluctuations. There is an exception, the case of critical states, which exhibit to the naked eye the phenomenon of critical opalescence. For laboratory studies of critical states, exceptionally long observation times are needed.

为了物理分析的目的,假设热力学平衡是非常方便的。这种假设可能依赖于试错来证明其正当性。如果这个假设是正确的,它通常是非常有价值和有用的,因为它提供了热力学理论。平衡假设的要素是,一个系统被观察到在无限长的时间内是不变的,而且一个系统中有如此多的粒子,以至于它的微粒性质可以被完全忽略。在这样的平衡假设下,一般来说,没有宏观上可以探测到的波动。有一个例外,即临界状态的例子,它们用肉眼就可以看到临界乳光现象。对于临界状态的实验室研究,需要非常长的观察时间。



In all cases, the assumption of thermodynamic equilibrium, once made, implies as a consequence that no putative candidate "fluctuation" alters the entropy of the system.

In all cases, the assumption of thermodynamic equilibrium, once made, implies as a consequence that no putative candidate "fluctuation" alters the entropy of the system.

在所有情况下,热力学平衡的假设,一旦做出,就意味着没有假定的候选者“涨落”改变系统的熵。



It can easily happen that a physical system exhibits internal macroscopic changes that are fast enough to invalidate the assumption of the constancy of the entropy. Or that a physical system has so few particles that the particulate nature is manifest in observable fluctuations. Then the assumption of thermodynamic equilibrium is to be abandoned. There is no unqualified general definition of entropy for non-equilibrium states.[65]

一个物理系统很容易发生内部的宏观变化,其速度之快足以使熵的恒定性假设失效。或者一个物理系统的粒子太少,以至于微粒的本质在可观测的波动中是显而易见的。那么热力学平衡的假设就会被放弃。对于非平衡态,熵没有绝对的一般定义。



There are intermediate cases, in which the assumption of local thermodynamic equilibrium is a very good approximation,[66][67][68][69] but strictly speaking it is still an approximation, not theoretically ideal.

For non-equilibrium situations in general, it may be useful to consider statistical mechanical definitions of other quantities that may be conveniently called 'entropy', but they should not be confused or conflated with thermodynamic entropy properly defined for the second law. These other quantities indeed belong to statistical mechanics, not to thermodynamics, the primary realm of the second law.

对于一般的非平衡状态,考虑其他量的统计力学定义可能是有用的,这些量可以方便地称为‘熵’ ,但是它们不应该与第二定律正确定义的熵混淆或混淆。这些其他的量确实属于统计力学,而不是热力学---- 第二定律的主要领域。

Thermodynamic Asymmetry in Time

时间中的热力学不对称性


The second law of thermodynamics is a physical law that is not symmetric to reversal of the time direction. This does not conflict with notions that have been observed of the fundamental laws of physics, namely CPT symmetry, since the second law applies statistically, it is hypothesized, on time-asymmetric boundary conditions.[70]

热力学第二定律是一个物理定律,它不对称于时间方向的反转。这与已经观察到的物理学基本定律,即 CPT 对称性的概念并不冲突,因为第二定律在统计上适用,它是假设的,是关于时间非对称的边界条件。



The second law has been proposed to supply a partial explanation of the difference between moving forward and backwards in time, such as why the cause precedes the effect (the causal arrow of time).[71]

Irreversibility

Irreversibility

不可逆性



Irreversibility in thermodynamic processes is a consequence of the asymmetric character of thermodynamic operations, and not of any internally irreversible microscopic properties of the bodies. Thermodynamic operations are macroscopic external interventions imposed on the participating bodies, not derived from their internal properties. There are reputed "paradoxes" that arise from failure to recognize this.

热力学过程的不可逆性是热力学作用不对称性的结果,而不是物体内部不可逆的微观性质的结果。热力学操作是施加在参与机构上的宏观外部干预,而不是从它们的内部性质中得到的。由于没有认识到这一点,产生了被称为“悖论”的说法。



Loschmidt's paradox

Loschmidt's paradox

洛斯密特悖论

Loschmidt's paradox, also known as the reversibility paradox, is the objection that it should not be possible to deduce an irreversible process from the time-symmetric dynamics that describe the microscopic evolution of a macroscopic system.

Loschmidt's paradox, also known as the reversibility paradox, is the objection that it should not be possible to deduce an irreversible process from the time-symmetric dynamics that describe the microscopic evolution of a macroscopic system.

洛斯密特悖论,也被称为可逆性悖论,其目的在于不可能从描述宏观系统微观演化的时间对称动力学推导出不可逆性。



In the opinion of Schrödinger, "It is now quite obvious in what manner you have to reformulate the law of entropy模板:Sndor for that matter, all other irreversible statements模板:Sndso that they be capable of being derived from reversible models. You must not speak of one isolated system but at least of two, which you may for the moment consider isolated from the rest of the world, but not always from each other."[72] The two systems are isolated from each other by the wall, until it is removed by the thermodynamic operation, as envisaged by the law. The thermodynamic operation is externally imposed, not subject to the reversible microscopic dynamical laws that govern the constituents of the systems. It is the cause of the irreversibility. The statement of the law in this present article complies with Schrödinger's advice. The cause–effect relation is logically prior to the second law, not derived from it.

根据薛定谔的观点,“现在很明显,你必须用什么方式来重新定义该物质的熵定律,所有其他不可逆的状态,这样它们才能从可逆模型中导出。你不能只谈论一个孤立的系统,而应该至少谈论两个,你可以暂时认为它们与世界其它地方是孤立的,但并不总是相互孤立的。”这两个系统被隔离墙隔离开来,直到按照法律的设想被热力学操作拆除。热力学操作是外部强加的,不受支配系统组成部分的可逆微观动力学定律的制约。它是不可逆转性的原因。本文中的法律陈述符合薛定谔的建议。因果关系在逻辑上优先于第二定律,而不是从第二定律派生出来的。



Poincaré recurrence theorem

Poincaré recurrence theorem

庞加莱始态复现定理

模板:Main article


The Poincaré recurrence theorem considers a theoretical microscopic description of an isolated physical system. This may be considered as a model of a thermodynamic system after a thermodynamic operation has removed an internal wall. The system will, after a sufficiently long time, return to a microscopically defined state very close to the initial one. The Poincaré recurrence time is the length of time elapsed until the return. It is exceedingly long, likely longer than the life of the universe, and depends sensitively on the geometry of the wall that was removed by the thermodynamic operation. The recurrence theorem may be perceived as apparently contradicting the second law of thermodynamics. More obviously, however, it is simply a microscopic model of thermodynamic equilibrium in an isolated system formed by removal of a wall between two systems. For a typical thermodynamical system, the recurrence time is so large (many many times longer than the lifetime of the universe) that, for all practical purposes, one cannot observe the recurrence. One might wish, nevertheless, to imagine that one could wait for the Poincaré recurrence, and then re-insert the wall that was removed by the thermodynamic operation. It is then evident that the appearance of irreversibility is due to the utter unpredictability of the Poincaré recurrence given only that the initial state was one of thermodynamic equilibrium, as is the case in macroscopic thermodynamics. Even if one could wait for it, one has no practical possibility of picking the right instant at which to re-insert the wall. The Poincaré recurrence theorem provides a solution to Loschmidt's paradox. If an isolated thermodynamic system could be monitored over increasingly many multiples of the average Poincaré recurrence time, the thermodynamic behavior of the system would become invariant under time reversal.

庞加莱始态复现定理认为这是一个孤立的物理系统的理论微观描述。这可以被认为是一个热力学系统的模型后,一个热力学操作已经移除了一个内墙。在足够长的时间之后,系统将返回到一个非常接近初始状态的显微定义状态。庞加莱回归时间是指回归前经过的时间长度。它极其漫长,可能比宇宙的寿命还要长,并且敏感地依赖于被热力学操作拆除的墙体的几何形状。递归定理可能被认为是明显与热力学第二定律相矛盾的。然而,更明显的是,它只不过是一个微观模型,热力学平衡在一个孤立的系统中,通过移除两个系统之间的一道墙而形成。对于一个典型的热力学系统,重现时间是如此之大(比宇宙的生命周期长许多倍) ,以至于在所有的实际目的中,人们都不能观察到重现。然而,人们可能希望想象一下,可以等待庞加莱复发,然后重新插入被热力学操作移除的壁。然后很明显,不可逆性的出现是由于庞加莱循环的完全不可预测性,只要初始状态是热力学平衡,就像宏观热力学的情况一样。即使可以等待,也没有实际可能性选择合适的时间重新插入墙壁。庞加莱始态复现定理为 Loschmidt 悖论提供了一个解决方案。如果一个孤立的热力学系统可以被监测到在越来越多的平均 poincar 递归时间的倍数上,系统的热力学行为将在时间反转下变得不变。

James Clerk Maxwell imagined one container divided into two parts, A and B. Both parts are filled with the same gas at equal temperatures and placed next to each other, separated by a wall. Observing the molecules on both sides, an imaginary demon guards a microscopic trapdoor in the wall. When a faster-than-average molecule from A flies towards the trapdoor, the demon opens it, and the molecule will fly from A to B. The average speed of the molecules in B will have increased while in A they will have slowed down on average. Since average molecular speed corresponds to temperature, the temperature decreases in A and increases in B, contrary to the second law of thermodynamics.

詹姆斯·克拉克·麦克斯韦想象一个容器分成两部分,a 和 b。两个部分在相同的温度下充入相同的气体,并被一堵墙隔开,挨着放置。通过观察两边的分子,一个想象中的恶魔守卫着墙上的一个微型暗门。当一个来自 a 的比平均速度快的分子飞向活板门时,魔鬼打开了它,分子就会从 a 飞到 b。B 中分子的平均速度会增加,而 a 中分子的平均速度会减慢。由于平均分子速度与温度相对应,因此 a 中的温度降低,b 中的温度升高,这与热力学第二定律相反。



One response to this question was suggested in 1929 by Leó Szilárd and later by Léon Brillouin. Szilárd pointed out that a real-life Maxwell's demon would need to have some means of measuring molecular speed, and that the act of acquiring information would require an expenditure of energy.

1929年,Leó Szilárd 和后来的 l on brilouin 对这个问题提出了一个答案。Szil rd 指出,现实生活中的麦克斯韦恶魔需要一些测量分子速度的方法,而获取信息需要消耗大量能量。



Maxwell's 'demon' repeatedly alters the permeability of the wall between A and B. It is therefore performing thermodynamic operations on a microscopic scale, not just observing ordinary spontaneous or natural macroscopic thermodynamic processes.

麦克斯韦的“魔鬼”不断地改变 a 和 b 之间墙体的渗透性。因此,它是在微观尺度上执行热力学操作,而不仅仅是观察普通的自发或自然的宏观热力学过程。
